  • Eternal Atake’s roll out.

  • Heaven’s Gatewas a cult that committed mass suicide in the mid 1990s.

  • REPORTER: They called themselves Heaven’s Gate, a cult started in the 70s by a man named

  • Marshall Applewhite, who later called himself Do.

  • He then receives an alert with coordinates to Easter Island, home to the mysterious massive

  • statues dating back nearly a thousand years.

  • When he gets into the elevator, Uzi, always fashionable, is seen rocking the only remaining
