Synopsis

Baldwin’s “pseudo-pseudo-documentary” presents a factual chronicle of US intervention in Latin America in the form of the ultimate far-right conspiracy theory, combining covert action, environmental catastrophe, space aliens, cattle mutilations, killer bees, religious prophecy, doomsday diatribes, and just about every other crackpot theory broadcast through the dentures of the modern paranoiac.

Reviews

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Izzy Adkins The movie is surprisingly subdued in its pacing, its characterizations, and its go-for-broke sensibilities.
conymerca A wonderful and peculiarly disturbing movie, with Baldwin's patented quick cuts, pop culture mashup, and political commentary filtered through a science-fiction conceit that has achieved a grotesque and influential life in the real world. By the end, the viewer's head is spinning and laughter is undercut with questions of just what one does and doesn't know about the history of our time. A spin on conspiracy theory thinking that has evidently spawned its owned flock of conspiracy theories.Hasn't anyone yet shown that this was the inspiration for David Icke's insane second career?
Hans-56 I have no idea why anyone grades this movie over 1 star. For even one star is far too much. After seeing this it is obvious Ed Wood should have been granted an Oscar. This is a kind of semi documentary informing us about every possible conspiracy the world has known from the 1940's onwards. I guess even people who dig conspiracy theories can't make any sense out of this one. The makers didn't do any shooting of footage themselves. They just cut pieces out of existing B-movies and better still Z-movies. Including titles. No matter whether black and white or colour, known (Godzilla) or fully obscure. A voice over explains things to us. Well, there is nothing to explain. It is just utter baloney. For just ten minutes it is nice to see the cuttings from 1950's and 1960's SF and horror, but that gets to be boring very soon. The nonsense is so overdone that for the first 15 minutes there is something to laugh about. But then you are stunned only and after 30 minutes you realize that this is just sheer nonsense, the cheapest way of making a movie: take cuts from other movies and put them together. If this is done intelligently it is OK. But here it makes the movie look as cheap as it is, as ridiculous as it is and as unwanted as it is. According to this movie aliens paralyzed Eisenhower. I almost sewed this movie for causing a sincere headache. Please, avoid this movie at all cost.
nyc man I wish I had not even rented this from Netflix.The on-screen quality of the video is bad: in other words, it's like (and may well be) a DVD copy of a video of a video.I guess there's an element of being a spoof to consider, but it is so infantile, and so USA centric, that it does not qualify as reasonable joke about documentaries and conspiracy theories.It is not even worth viewing to see how bad it is.It blends minor true facts (such as the Secretary of Defense Forrestal committing suicide) and outright garbage (such as a sister planet of Earth being on the other side of the sun 1,000 years ago) to make a paranoid person's idea of likelihood (as Judy Tenuta would say: "It could happen")
dbborroughs Craig Baldwins's found footage montage about the history of mankind and the evil aliens that haunt us. It's a straight faced pseudo-documentary that is a dead on send up of the UFO films of the 70's and 80's and of some of the alleged belief's of the Church of Scientology . It completely shreds your ideas about what is history and how we know what s real and what isn't simply because it makes its case so convincingly that if you didn't know any better you could actually believe it. Certainly it makes its claims in a more convincing way than many news programs. If you want to disappear for 45 minutes into a different mind set or want to see a really good science fiction tale give this a shot
