Alien Autopsy: (Fact or Fiction?)

This was supposed to have happened in 1947 but the coiled telephone cord didn't come into common use until the late 1950s. Cinema anachronisms, ya gotta love 'em. Pretty decent special effects though.

Anyone who holds on to even a SHRED of hope that the Alien Autopsy is real just ask yourself what I asked in my summary. Even by 1940's standards, the video tape was laughably horrible. The a government agency was trying to document an event of this importance, they would have used the best video equipment available at the time. They also would have had someone with some intelligence in handling the camera. Therefore the footage would not be blurred virtually EVERY time something important happens, and would not keep going out of frame. This was just another sad attempt by Fox to give credibility to the ridiculous. I don't remember the name, but another show completely shot down all the 'experts' contentions that it was real. Most notably these Hollywood special effects 'experts' (why not get Tom Savini if you want the best?) who claim the alien body would be virtually impossible to fake. That movie actually recreated the autopsy very easily with things available to the original filmmakers.

And of course there is no question of 'If the aliens made it here in the 40s, why did they suddenly STOP coming?' Or if you want to believe that they didn't, then how come there hasn't been a single true sighting since? distant lights in the sky don't count. Apparently they came all the way to earth at Roswell. With EVERYONE having a camcorder these days, we would see actual footage of ships, not just random lights in the sky.

Bottom line: If you want a good laugh, and you have nothing better to do, check this out. If you start believing it for a second, seek professional help.

on this version of the documentary,the original 23 minute autopsy film is included directly after the documentary itself.as for the documentary,i thought it was well made,and well researched.apparently, after doing a little research into the actual autopsy film,it has been discovered to be a hoax,including a confession by the man who originally sold the story to the network for the documentary.but i can't help but wonder if he had been pressured by certain agencies to confess it was a hoax,even if it wasn't.i also noticed comments from people on this site and others,declaring that the quality of the film is too poor for what the government would have used,and that the autopsy itself is so obviously fake.most of these people don't really offer any explanation for their opinion,and ridicule people who think the film might be real,some even calling them morons.so i'm not sure how much credence should be lent to those views.plus,there were some pretty credible people(including experts in their respective fields)interviewed in the documentary,who believe the autopsy footage is either real,or an amazing,well done hoax.my own personal opinion is that i am not convinced either way.regardless,i found the movie compelling and chilling.for me,Alien Autopsy is a 9/10

This is an investigative inquiry about a black and white Super 8mm film reportedly shot at a 1947 autopsy of an alien body recovered from the purported Roswell UFO crash site. The host (Jonathan Frakes: Star Trek TNG), acting as moderator, shows us the film and introduces expert commentary. Some of the people have examined the original film (as in film processing/preservation people from the cinema industry)and given their views as to the age of the original print. Other experts comment about the difficulty of creating the film as a hoax and what would be necessary to pull it off. The whole thing was very well done from the point of view of; "In the absence of proof either way, here are some things to think about." It neither proves nor disproves any of the facts purported to come from the incident. A must for anyone interested in learning more about the Roswell UFO crash site incident.

This film is a documentary that shows a 17 minute film that is suppose to show some of a 1947 Roswell UFO alien autopsy. Contains many interviews and even does a for and against argument against the validity of the footage. I suggest it for any UFO buff just for the chance for them to see the footage. Johnathan Drake hosted this show that originally aired on FOX TV.
