The crowd sourced encyclopedia's article on the film, read directly for this entry. Its strength is a well referenced production record spanning Deren's original 1947 to 1954 footage through the Itos' 1981 completion. Its limit is that it is not independently peer reviewed, so it is cited here for corroborated production detail rather than for critical interpretation, which the Epple review supplies instead.

Reliability Tier3
Wikipedia's article on the film Divine Horsemen, The Living Gods of Haiti, the lower tier reflecting that it is a crowd sourced, not independently peer reviewed encyclopedia entry, though its production record spanning Maya Deren's original 1947 to 1954 footage through the Itos' 1981 completion is well referenced, notwithstanding that it is cited here for corroborated production detail rather than for critical interpretation. NotesRead directly during research; cited for the film being directed by Maya Deren, completed in 1981 by Teiji Ito and Cherel Winett Ito twenty years after Deren's 1961 death, and consisting mostly of dance and possession footage from Rada and Petro Vodou services.
