UFO's Are Real

Everything in this documentary is GREAT with PROOF of UFO existence.Everything except the Billy Maier baloney that is.I wish that mess was not in this documentary,but 9 out of 10 is not bad.Plenty of hard evidence here.President Jimmy Carter,J.Edgar Hoover,Military Officials,and many other CREDIBLE witnesses are featured in this show.I mean Betty Hill describing Amniocentesis BEFORE it was INVENTED says VOLUMES.As does a handwritten memo from J.Edgar Hoover,attesting to the existence of UFO's.There are soil tests that are DEMONSTRATED,and also many,many legit photo's of UFO's(don't count the Billy Maier crap near the end of the movie,lol).Everything in this is intelligently written and presented.99% of the evidence presented here stands up today still(Again the Maier stuff is a joke,but not the main item here,thank God).This and a few of the recent UFO's documentaries with Bryant Gumble is very well done also.I want to get those as Gumble shows the military's outright LIES explaining people seeing BODIES after the Roswell crash.The Military explains them as "Crash Test Dummies".Then Gumble points out the dummies were NOT used until 7 YEARS AFTER ROSWELL.Get your cover ups STRAIGHT Military!

And still creeping people out today. 1979's "UFOs Are Real" is one of those grainy but still spooky paranormal documentaries that everyone seemed to be making in the 70's. Featuring top Ufologist Stanton Friedman, "UFOs" shows some of the best UFO photos and films as well as written accounts from such distant times like ancient Rome that may very well have been UFO sightings. But it also features people who have seen fantastic things that cannot be explained only to be discarded and laughed at in most cases. This factor, more than anything else, is what gives the show its power. From pilots who have encountered UFOs to people who claimed to be abducted, this documentary has it all. Listen as Betty Hill tells her tale of her and her husband, Barney, being abducted from a lonely New England road and taken onto a craft manned by beings not of this world. Their tale never fails to send shivers down my spine every time I hear it. Adding to the creepiness of it all is the chilling music score used throughout the film. As I said earlier, the film quality may be grainy but the message is no less important today than it was then. After all, even though it has been over thirty years since this was made, the truth about UFOs is still out there and just as far from our grasp as it has ever been. So, if the subject of UFOs and anything strange interests you in the least, I urge you to look up "UFOs Are Real" on you tube-since this is the only way one can view it-and be sure to type UFOs are real since the cover shown on IMDb is of a different documentary. And as I always like to say when writing on such productions, keep watching the skies!

This is just a correction of a previous comment. I agree with the information in the review but the final sentence has an error. His name is Bob Lazar not Paul Lazar.

Frankly, I was surprised to find such extremely LIMITED commentary on this film! I'd RATHER have extensive ADVERSE judgements, rather than such a big SNORE! I guess that this film is basically, "pre-Internet", hence, lacks the "big review" number of responses! Based upon my "to date" research, I have garnered a lot of respect for Stanton Friedman, and know he DESERVES a much larger VOTE, regardless of whether UP or DOWN.

As far as I can tell, this is something of a "masterwork" for Friedman, and, within the limitations of the UFO format, a brilliant execution! Interest in UFO's seems to come and go in "waves".

Hence, two things I know for sure. First, we seem to be at the bottom of the current cycle, in terms of interest by the American public.

Two, it will take only a a "slight nudge", to rocket this topic back to, "the top of the charts."

I like this video because it brings me back to 1980 (when I first saw it). This doc used to be my holy bible using it to try and prove to the noisy negativists that flying saucers are real.

Until I got older and watched every single case fall apart & turned out to be phony - like Rex Heflin's photos, Paul Trent's photos, Billy Meier's photos/videos etc. Etc.

My favorite case was the Coyne UFO helicopter case. But if you Google it, it turns out that it was a refueling plane.

This documentary was very well done for 1979 but as time goes on - reality has reared its head. And to today (Dec 2024) there is zero proof/evidence that any aliens and their craft have visited the earth despite what you see on YouTube & the news.

They probably do exist but like I said - there is zero proof of it and the stuff in this video is not proof - it's all nonsense, misidentification and/or a hoax.
