    The truth could be a lot closer than you think.

    Has been 9 years since the release of this film and to all intensive purposes it's dropped off the radar, even the producers (Rocket films) have deleted the disc from release. This fact does not dilute the impact of the footage. You either accept this person 'Victor' as genuine or not. If you think he's fraudster then you won't give a shred of credence to the alien interview footage he presents. If however you're open minded enough to entertain the possibility that 'Victor' is for real and he has covertly acquired something incredible from the Nevada Groom Lake facility then the footage becomes serious food for thought. IMO the footage is at the very least impressive. Considering it was delivered to the film company in 1996 (before CGI was widespread in Hollywood) the 'interviewee' looks very real and solid. It moves oddly, in a jerky (non puppet) out of time way. I have never seen that movement depicted in any other Hollywood sci-fi flick. The glass partition between interviewer and his subject also made me think this could be real. I doubt fraudsters would have thought of adding this – especially as its so subtle on the film. Overall, I rate this tape much higher than the Santini 'autopsy' from 97. I feel the 'Victor' footage was tainted by that obvious fraud and for that reason has been largely forgotten about. Now we're approaching ten years since this tape was put into the arena I think its time 'Victor' came clean on his identity and told the entire truth. What has he got to lose? Failing that, the mere chance that this footage is not fake is enough to make it highly compelling for some time to come. I recommend this film to anyone who can find a copy to make there own mind up

    Proof of Aliens?

    Now, I am a person who believes the stories about the EBE and the reverse engineering of crafts, and alien intervention in human evolution. I believe those kinds of wild things. But there is just something about this interview for me that doesn't hold up. The director is doing "Night of the Living Dead 3D." The supposed production company in the movie doesn't even exist as far as i can tell (Rocket Pictures). In the IMDb company credits for this movie there is a company whose sound stage was used. The company also did the animatronics for Star Kid. Star Kid is a sci-fi family adventure with a strange looking robot like alien. However, the basic design of the animatronic face is eerily similar to that of the EBE in this interview. Perhaps Broadstreet and Benson had a cool concept of creating an elaborate mockumentary based on all the information they had heard about aliens. Or perhaps they were even paid to put on such a hoax to provide disinformation. Vega 7 produced this movie and only this movie. Is it not possible that this animatronics company created EBE and used their sound stage to record this infamous footage? I am not saying for sure whether or not this is real. I am just saying that this image could easily be achieved through puppetry and animatronics. But then again...this could be the only known footage of a real live alien being. I guess ultimately it's your call.

    Real or not, I really don't know

    maybe you want to watch that video yourself Travis and actually listen to the dialogue, it tells what the 'doctors' are doing and why,it also tells why its in near dark and even why the 'aliens' head appears jerky ('like most animals', bit of a strange thing to say when we are talking about a supposed 'alien being'). I'm not saying its real or not because I simply don't know, but your comments were all centered on things that were explained in the video. Watch it again but this time try turning your sound up a notch.

    Its certainly thought provoking if nothing else, I really wouldn't like it to be real because I'd hate to think we treated any supposed ET's in the way depicted in the video.

    One of the things that did stick in my mind was the special effects guy saying he could do better, but we had already seen his 'creations' in the reconstruction sequences and they looked laughable.

    I say fake...

    Believe me, I'd love to believe, but everything points to more fake than real. The Rocket Production company put out the documentary, somehow they were 'choosen' by Victor (former Government Employee of Area 51), and this question is never addressed in the film. Rocket Productions doesn't exist anymore - they went out of business. And this appears to be a desperate move by the company. There has been no follow up on the subject of Victor's identity, but I put that due in part of the non-existence of Rocket Productions. Either that or Tom Coleman (president of Rocket Production) was kidnapped by the government to get information on who Victor was (That should have been Victor's ultimate concern in giving up his identity - go to the source).

    Ignorance is bliss

    It's easy to be sceptic. It's easy to deny everything. I don't know if this is real, BUT there's are a ton of other material and witnesses around. No smoke without fire. Sceptics are just too afraid to let that thought in their head, that aliens most probably exist. For example, Ariel School 1994. All those kids are very good actors, right?
