I'm quite interested at the moment to see some conspiracy type films.. I'd prefer the documentary genre, but movies may be considered as well!

Have you seen Zeitgeist?
I quite enjoyed one about The Wizard of OZ (the original from the thirty's) being all about The fed and world money men. Not sure what it was called, I watch them all on YouTube.

do you mean conspiracy as in wack job tin foil hatters (moon landing, 9/11 etc)

or conspiracy as in genuinly plausible conspiracies - Watergate etc

Zeitgeist has been thoroughly debunked.

My very metal Doctor Who theme

I quite like the one about the Titanic and Zeitgeist. I suggest watching all the Loose Change documentaries. They cover mostly the same stuff, but each one has newer information. The final is the best produced though.

UFOs Out of the Blue is another great one. It is less of a conspiracy documentary, but has a lot of conspiracy content. I believe the Titanic documentary is called Titanic: The Ship that Never Sunk.

If you want conspiracy, then films are not going to do it. The main stream movie industry is part of the conspiracy!

You need to go to the source. I would suggest reading the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion or put it into a YouTube search.

Not a film, but, "24" TV series has a good season where corruption goes to the top.

That's not even conspiracy, that's outright racist propaganda.

As for movies, try Enemy of the State.

As far as the Protocols themselves go I agree. It is basically a dumbed down version of The Prince by Machiavelli. If the same material had simply been published as a book nobody would have cared. As far as the racial angle goes, it is so silly I even forgot to address it in my initial post.

However, the story of how they were forged and how they have been used as the basis for so many conspiracy theories there after. Now, that is a conspiracy all of it's own.
