Some of these churches sound sketchy as hell ....

The Netflix documentary is called Dancing for the Devil

1. Some?

Most churches are sketchy. Ponzi scheming stairways to heaven.

2. I wasn't aware of this. I'm watching the documentary now on Netflix

Like so many young people, my niece loves to dance, she is always dancing and posting on Tik Tok.
I'm just on the 2nd episode.
The bible, money, NDAs, my goodness.
Predators know how to prey on vulnerable people. These young people were so desperate for success.
This is definitely a cult.. Some churches are problematic for sure, but I would describe 7M Shekinah as a cult, not a church.
Abusive. If anyone is telling you to not associate with your family, that's a big red flag. That is what abusers do. Isolate you from friends and family.

ETA:
"When he said take care of your pastor, take care of your pastor's wife"
How brainwashed do you have to be to not see this is a problem?

3. That's how they get you

They know young people love dancing, social media, and hopes for fame and fortune. Plenty of cults call themselves a "church" or "temple" or other such religious term. This cult was profiting from young people.
