A brand-new six-episode documentary from PETA and executive producer Bill Maher gives viewers a stunning look at why decades of experiments on animals have amounted to nothing more than millions of dead animals and a multibillion-dollar institutional gravy train.

The Failed Experiment will make you more determined than ever to stop the torture of animals in laboratories.

But don’t just take our word for it. Here are a few early reviews from committed PETA supporters who’ve watched the series:

“The Failed Experiment documentary by PETA, produced by Bill Maher, is a must-see. Time to evolve and move forward to non-animal methods that are more accurate, cruelty-free, and guaranteed to safeguard human life and health.”

—Alicia Albek, PETA Vanguard Society and Investigations & Rescue Fund Member

“Scandalous, outrageous! Don’t watch it if: 1) it amuses you to throw your money away; 2) unimaginable cruelty doesn’t bother you in the least; 3) truth is of no value to you. If none of those statements applies to you, you owe it to yourself to see it.”

—Pauline Doucet, PETA Augustus Club and Vanguard Society Campaigner’s Circle Member

“The documentary shows just how cruel and futile vivisection is and makes one realize that there simply is no justification for it.”

—A PETA Vanguard Society Member

“Modern science no longer holds animal testing to be the gold standard. Labs can do better without it. What remains is pseudo-science. This essential documentary depicts the obsolete but continuing practices of universities, the government, and Big Pharma. Can anyone watch this and not be repelled? What do you do? Everything you can, now.”

—Jonathan Kaufelt and Holly Corn, PETA Vanguard Society Investigator’s Circle Members

“In my opinion, everyone needs to watch this to realize and understand what it means to use animals for medical research, stressing that none of the research has resulted in bettering health for humans. We as consumers need to realize that there are things we can do to stop this immediately!”

—A PETA Vanguard Society Member

“Are you among the 47% of the U.S. population who favor the use of animals in scientific research, according to the Pew Research Center—or the 52% who oppose such use? Either way, you owe it to the animals and your own health to watch this docuseries. You may find some of the video footage disturbing to watch—but you can also expect to feel uplifted by the examples of labs PETA has shut down, the animals released to happy new lives as a result, and the new testing methods that are yielding more reliable results.”

—Alysoun Mahoney, PETA Augustus Club and Vanguard Society Director’s Circle Member

“In a world abundant with cruelty-free alternatives, persisting in these outdated experiments defies reason. It’s imperative that we, as a society, reject such practices, emphasizing that there are effective and ethical alternatives available. Let’s demand a shift towards methods that respect life, sending a powerful message that cruelty has no place in the pursuit of scientific knowledge.”

—The TAO Stiftung Foundation

“Use of non-human animals for medical ‘research’ is intellectually dishonest, morally reprehensible, cruel, and archaic. There is no other aspect of medicine or technology that has not evolved over time. We’d still be writing on cave walls if technology had not advanced. These methods of imprisoning, slicing, and dicing other species waste billions in taxpayer dollars; give spurious results that harm humans; and waste time in developing cures that could help our own species.”

—Diana T. Artemis, PETA Augustus Club and Vanguard Society Director Circle’s Member

“Until PETA, the vivisectors were operating with full impunity, but PETA changed the prestige that vivisectors had awarded themselves for duping the public into thinking of them as esteemed scientists. This documentary is a profoundly revelatory and jaw-dropping inspiration to action.”

—Niloofar Asgharian, PETA Augustus Club and Vanguard Society Investigator’s Circle Member

“In an era when artificial intelligence is no longer a thing of science fiction, this series forces us to ask ourselves if continuing scientific experimentation on animals, a practice from Ancient Greece, stands in contradiction to progress—both morally and scientifically.”

—Kimberly Ovitz, PETA Vanguard Society Member
