Looking into space, you give free rein to your imagination -- How many stars are

there in the universe? What is it like to travel ten thousand light-years away

? Most important of all, do aliens really exist, and if positive, what do they

look like and how do they live their lives, and are they stealthily watching the

planet we live on – Are we alone?

Not only do these puzzles make us common people go crazy, they never cease to perplex all scientists around the world. UFOs are a perennial topic among these specialists and space lovers. Novels and cartoons featuring alien monsters are always on the best-selling lists. The Hollywood blockbuster “Star Wars” series

are the favorite of many movie fans. Given all these facts, there should be no

surprise that a documentary broadcasting a whole process of an autopsy of an alien took the entire world by storm in 1995. It’s reported that hundreds of TV

stations bid on the film that year and tens of millions of people watched the documentary and few uttered a word of questioning. After all these years of rowdiness, it turned out that the film, the autopsy of an alien, was all faked. It was nothing more than a scandal.

Things might not be that easy, though.

Hollywood is a fascinating world; it has the most sensitive feelers about the human conditions. The scandal about dissecting an alien that was rumored to have

been kept by the American military was recently made into a film titled Alien Autopsy. With great interest, I downloaded and watched the movie soon after it was available on the Internet. If you have been tortured by the above confusions,

or if you want to while away a boring afternoon with some fun movie, Alien Autopsy is exactly what you’ve been seeking for:

Depressed by their mishaps in their home country, and hoping to blaze a new path

, two British young men went to America, where they somehow had their hands on a

film which was said to have been kept for more than 50 years by an old man. The film actually recorded an entire process of the American military dissecting an alien and was watched on the spot by one of the two friends. Excited by their

discovery, they found a sponsor who happened to be a believer of aliens. They

bought the film and brought it back to British, only to be told the film had been badly destroyed since the owner brought it to light, and that the hope of regain the data was razor thin. Desperately worried that the sponsor would not buy

their story, the two lads decided to gamble on their luck and gathered a few friends of theirs to “artificially make” an alien by following what the one lad saw on the film. And they actually made it. Then they almost had it done: The

sponsor swallowed the story hook line and sinker, as did the later pursuers, TV

journalists around the world, all other media. The hand-made film even caught the attention of the American military, which later somehow served to cover the whole story up. The group made a decent profit by selling “the most shocking discovery in the human history” to the rest of the world. When their story was being questioned, they even hired a tramp in Hollywood to cover the lie, and the

tramp turned out to be a former Hollywood movie star who had stopped playing for

40 years. But there’s more to it than meets the eye – after the whole thing

was disclosed, that eccentric-looking old jerk, the film-fixing expert, came to

the two hoaxers telling them the destroyed original was mostly fixed – It was true! But what could they do now? The original was then buried deeply somewhere

. Maybe someday some adventurer will have the luck and bring it to light again.

The movie is made in a slight humorous way, enough to give you a good time in this burning hot summer season. And the performance of all the actors is terrific

. If I have to point to some flaw of it, I would single out the accent of their

English: typical British English that sounds too “tropical” to me.

Recommended!

Pan.
