Leftover 'experts' that didn't make the cut from paranormal caught on camera.

So 1940 radar technology is used by Aliens located on the moon... Where do they find these people??

I know people are gullible but surely no one actually believes this
david-759-58655812 September 2015
I am an open minded sort of bloke and I do firmly believe that with the vastness of space it is incredibly arrogant of us to think we are the only life in the universe but this pile of nonsense is beyond the pale. Perfectly natural structures highlighted in colours to force you to see buildings...... Really ! It is amusing to watch but nothing more it even includes yet another alien on a slab ( a very waxy looking figure , almost as if it had been man made ) on the alleged Apollo 20 ‽ with merged flags and dodgy footage...... Now I am happy to be proved wrong and as I said I would be amazed if we were alone in the entire universe but this "documentary " really is a crock.

Inexplicable doku, uhm, mockumentary..? Inexplicable, who put it there!? Clearly artificial.
Finfrosk868 January 2016
Be prepared for a lot of this: We are presented with a huge photograph of the moon, while zooming in the narrator says: "look at this inexplicable photo". So far, you have no clue what you're supposed to be seeing. Then they highlight something, or ring around something that might, just miiiight look like some sort of structure. Then an "expert" says: this is clearly not natural, but WHO put it there?! And you're left thinking, uhm, couldn't it just have been a mountain or crater or a rock or something..? I mean, there are thousands of moon photos, it's all rock and sand and stuff, of course a bunch of 'em will look like stuff.

One time in particular, they showed the same photo several times in a row, and before the colored highlight came on, I couldn't for the life of me see where the alleged structure was supposed to be. Haha.

Anyway! I'll say though, some of it is kind of interesting. But keep in mind that it might very well be a mockumentary. It's fun to hear the interviews with former employees at NASA etc. but whether they are who they say they are, or whether they are telling the truth or just wants their 15 minutes, is not good to know.

One lady gives a rational explanations for one of the photos, and the narrator quickly brushes it off as a poor attempt at explaining this inexplicable photograph. That's just silly.

Had they just presented all the material, all the pictures and interviews at once, in stead of showing the same picture about 300 billions times, the whole thing could have been 20 minutes. Tops!

but yeah, to sum up, I found it entertaining for the most part, but also really low brow, and quite stupid. Take it for what it is, light conspiracy-ish entertainment, and you'll, well, you could do worse.

Don't Waste Your Time
OldMoveeLover20 July 2014
Another hoax "documentary" in a long list by fraudster Robert Kiviat. He brought us "Alien Autopsy" in 1995, his initial hoax disguised as a documentary.

A long list of shady paranormal "researchers" contributed to this schlock documentary: ghost hunters, Bigfoot trackers, UFO chasers, and MUFON, the biggest of the fraudsters.

By enlarging NASA photographs so that the pixels are gigantic, they imagine all sorts of structures on the moon, including a nuclear reactor, wagon wheels, a cannon 1 mile long, a mine, a prison, and fort. Blurry craters become mile-wide satellite dishes.

Thank goodness that guy with the crazy hair from Ancient Aliens wasn't featured. Although, he would not be out of place in this show.

Save your time and skip the dreck. If I could have rated this a zero, I would. A "1" seems too high.

Pegged my bs-o-meter
flybd4 June 2015
I've seen a lot of garbage over the years, but this by far tops pretty much all the piles of caca on my list. The cast of characters reads like the cast of a Ringling Brothers cleaning crew, the script appears to have been written by a drunk 12-year- old, and the level of intelligence required to view this is just below that of a Walmart baby rattle. The horrid cast of so-called "experts" in this film reads like the patient list at Nurse Ratchett's daily medication rounds. In one scene, they bring up an expert on photography analysis that is billed as a... get this... paranormal expert. Poor Roger Leopardi must have been broke, hungry and way behind on his rent to agree to narrate this spectacularly prepubescent film. Don't waste your time. You'll get more out of watching the grass grow.

Hilariously Bad
saraheconner2 October 2016
This is possibly the fifth worst thing I've ever watched. Certainly the third worst thing I've ever seen on Netflix (behind the atrocious "Haunting of Silver Falls" and another alien conspiracy movie I watched that was even worse).

The entirety of this movie consists of someone talking about an object on the moon that is most certainly just a normal rock or crater, but has a shadow that makes it look strange. Then they color in the "shape" of the object they think is there, which gives - at least they think it gives - the appearance that some kind of artifact has to be there. Then they discuss those shapes for a long time. That's really all there is to it.

Let me point out three reasons why none of their claims make any sense:

1) They claim that the aliens use plasma from stars like our sun to power all their stuff, yet they say that they created a nuclear power plant on the moon. Why would they need it if they already had their energy source found out?

2) Our moon sucks. There's nothing on it.There are other moons in our solar system they could use as a base that have water on them - frozen seas and all - that could be much more useful. And if they had faster than light travel to reach us in the first place, then it would be extremely easy to reach us from there, so it doesn't matter if they're on our moon or another moon further away. No alien race would want to use our moon as a base.

3) Better yet, if aliens came here why wouldn't they just use our earth as a base and just force us to let them stay? It's not like we could do anything about it if they're that advanced. You're saying that these creatures traveled many light years to reach us *just* to create a nuclear power plant on our moon and some satellite that looks down at us (yes, they said the aliens have a satellite dish on the moon. Not like they'd have something a lot better on their own ship). That seems like a gigantic waste of time for them.

To conclude, this documentary makes no sense, and is so bad it's kind of funny. It's one of the worst things I've seen, but I'd still recommend it if you want something to make fun of. For review purposes, 1/10. For pure entertainment purposes, 7/10.

Poppycock on wheels
asertus23 July 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Professional video documentary producers and directors DO NOT mix real-life imagery with artwork and model shots, with intent to deceive the audience into believing that the real-life imagery is more persuasive than it really is.

Robert Kiviat was guilty of this "video sin" over and over in this hilariously contrived piece of film-flam. The images purporting to show alien structures on the Moon are laughably unconvincing, so they had to be "boosted."

Mike Bara, a laid-off CAD-CAM technician with no training in geology or image interpretation (and, in fact, a well deserved reputation for botching Apollo Moon imagery) told us about a "giant paper-clip" and a "mile wide Ziggurat". These are simply lies. The paper-clip is a curly fiber in an amateur scanner that wasn't kept clean. The Ziggurat is a spoof that Bara stumbled across on the "Call of Duty Zombies" web forum.

Lee Spiegel fell for another hoax, the "crashed spacecraft" on the Moon. Examination of the far better images from Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter proves that this is just a dune feature, cratered exactly the same as its surroundings.

Pathetic.

Don Quixote: a tragedy and a comedy
meritcoba21 February 2016
So let's not get too close-minded here and, for the sake of argument, assume the premise: that there are, or were, aliens at work on the moon, either on the near or far side or both. And not only on the moon, but on mars and the sun and the earth as this documentary has it.

So how would you go about it to make people believe it?

Let's look at this very unclear old black and white picture of some part of the moon that shows what looks like an artificially created construction because it might resemble the tower of a nuclear plant and therefore it might be a nuclear plant that might be used to make nuclear devices that could be used for offensive or defensive means, hence we are under a threat, just like in the cold war! And we cannot do anything about it and that is why the government doesn't tell us and wants it to remain a secret! It would start a nation wide crisis and as a result the nation would collapse and be send back to the stone age.

Quite.

Why not build your own telescope then and check out the moon? I read you can now get telescopes to discover 1 km wide objects on the surface of the moon. So that should allow you to see those 22 mile high and wide structures.

But nope. Instead you make a documentary with people with vague credentials (Researcher? What kind of title is that?) who use the word 'might' a lot and conjecture up a whole race of human-like aliens and bemoan government led conspiracies, based on hearsay, flights of fantasies, bad pictures and computer enhanced imagery. And even at some point suggest space battles between aliens. Yep: star wars.

The documentary slowly progresses to its climax, after showing and telling the same thing over and over again and the climax is actually the low point, but an important one as the real truth gets exposed. Supposed pictures of a dead alien woman recovered by the otherwise unrecorded Apollo 20 mission are shown and then a 'researcher' tells us that even if it is a fake it is a clear sign that there is an attempt to misguide people, hence it is a sign of a cover up, hence it is a sign that something is there to be covered up.

And there you have it. The truth that gets exposed here is not that there are aliens on the moon or government conspiracies but the truth that facts do not matter: when facts stand in the way of truth then they get pushed aside, for it is the 'truth' that there are aliens busying themselves with humanity and it is the truth the government knows it and hides it.

It is this documentary that is the conspiracy. And the conspirators see themselves as heroes. But these heroes are fighting windmills. Don Quixotes. In the wikipedia about Don Quixote one can find a very apt quote from Harold Bloom about it, []preferring the glory of fantasy over the real world which includes imminent death[]

And that is what this documentary is. A fantasy, a flight of imagination, the exposure of the silliness of humanity and the sadness one can experience when people, like some astronauts, delude themselves merely because they want to believe something. It is a tragedy and a comedy. It is life.

Yes there are others out there - no this isn't proof
shieldfire21 September 2015
This is 1 hour and 20 minutes of blurred images, speculation, and "helpfully" coloured shadows. Interesting enough the commentator at the beginning of the "documentary" uses the words "are?", "maybe", "could this" but at towards the ends of it skips all these small highly significant words from the narrative. It follows the same format as many other conspiracy "documentaries".

A/ Can it be X?

B/ Can it be Y?

C/ Can it be Z?

----------------- This proves that aliens built stuff on the moon/did something else unbelievable.

If you are into this kind of reasoning and conspiracy then go ahead watch this waste of time. Personally I'd extremely surprised if there are not others out there - and equally surprised if they were particularly interested in this backward backwater planets population.

The NASA Air-Brush, Buzz Aldren's Hubris, & "The Brookings Report"
LeonLouisRicci26 November 2017
Not One Reviewer, as of this Date, Posted a Remark about...

(1) The NASA "Air-Brush" Brigade. This Assault on the Truth has been Reported by NASA Employees for Decades who have either Taken Part in the "Cover-Up" or have Witnessed the Before and After Photographs First Hand. Why would NASA do this? Just for Fun?

(2) Buzz Aldrin REFUSING to even LOOK at a Photograph. This Reminds of the Catholic Church REFUSING to LOOK through Galileo's Telescope.

(3) The Famous "Brooking's Report" Think Tank Warns...(paraphrasing)"If Proof of Extraterrestrial Existence is Discovered, Keep it from the Public".

If Nothing Else, this Far from Smoking Gun Proof Documentary, Exposes those bits of FACT about what goes on in the UFO Research Community and Why it is Difficult at Best and Impossible at Worst to Approach the Subject with a Clear Head.

There is so much Resistance, Cover-Ups, Misdirection, Misinformation, Disinformation, and Ballyhoo that has to make one Wonder just what is the Agenda Motivating all of the Smokescreens.

Skeptics and Trolls are Quick to Ridicule and Poke Fun at the Researchers but give the "Authorities" a Pass at any and all Chicanery. NASA, for example and the "Government" are Taxpayer Funded and Answerable to the Citizens and Their Duty is to the Public.

Maybe the Infamous "Brookings Report" (sighted, by the way, in this film) was Correct, or at Least those in Charge to this Day Believe it to be Correct and We are all being Pampered and Corralled into the "Party Line". Move On Sheeple, Nothing to See Here, We have this Under Control for Your Own Good. We are "Definitely Looking Out for You."

I'm giggling as I type this
developedfrequencies4 March 2021
I'll be honest. I used to be into all this kinda stuff. It was a guilty pleasure at the time. I didn't realise I could be feeling breasts and learning to cook extraordinary meals. You know, living life?

This wasn't very good. I had to check my spectacles still worked, cos I rarely saw in the bad photos, what I was being told it was. Either my eyes don't work, or the people in this shambolic show, are in need of an eye test and psychological evaluation. Maybe both.

Furthermore, so what eh? Who cares? Are they, or aren't they? Who cares? Does it help? Does it encourage free thought? Do we develop as a civilisation? Who cares? Why speculate on what's not real and ignore issues that are?

Who cares?

If there are aliens, maybe they should just send a text? What? They have mile wide cannons, but no mobile phones? Sound like a bunch of cretins to me who are millions of yrs in advance, but still need satellite dishes so they can get SKY TV.

Just give over.

People should not be allowed to waste film like this.

Wow! Thank you all so much.
athomas-7359210 April 2017
To all the people that wrote negative and obvious killjoy reviews:

Thank you all so much for putting a damper on "pure entertainment". I guess anyone who wants to entertain any type of public should go to these people first and ask them for permission to do so.

If you love to be entertained and do not take things too seriously then this show is very much worth watching. Please ignore all these people who love to spout off and throw "credentials" at you.

Give it a rest! Let people be entertained and have a good time.

Informative and Believable
tathagatnap6 April 2018
Unlike other documentaries which uses lot of computer generated imagery, this films shows you the facts through real evidences and photographs. Also the interviews complement to the fact that the unknown has been tried to open up before the world.

Its your decision whether you believe it or not. I came to the conclusion with support of my common sense.

Was this meant to be a comedy or serious?
jvenus-0733921 June 2021
If you Google search any of these "facts", proper science articles will indeed come up by actual scientists to educate anyone that believes this stuff to be true. When people don't properly understand science like they believe they do, this often happens. Even "professionals" often get science wrong.

Many quotes are taken out of context and just badly interpreted. I'm still wondering if this is actually meant to be serious.

Fun to laugh at and judge from the comfort of your couch.
heakerson8 April 2015
Warning: Spoilers
This "documentary" (to use the term VERY loosely) makes the face on Mars look like a real hard piece of Martian evidence. When they're not busy showcasing the ridiculously fuzzy and obscure images of rubble piles, shadows, natural formations, and craters, they're ranting about wild speculations as to what these "structures" could be. Between mining operations, giant domes, beacons, cities, and canons, all of the fuzzy random shapes seem to have very obvious uses. At the very least, I can admire the imagination of these people because it takes a whole lot of it to see what they're seeing. Literally. To assist the ever so sorry (or amused) viewer, they've highlighted the pictures with random colored shapes to "enhance" whatever it is they see. However, when they remove the added colors from the picture, it's almost impossible to see what they're talking about. Actually, it's almost as impossible even when they leave the colored shapes in! Also, I'm left scratching my head as to how they got actual astronauts to appear in this. I can only assume they were lied to or lured in with candy.

Had more fun trimming my toe nails
dannybeans11 September 2015
I generally don't watch documentaries of this ilk because i find the conclusions laughably weak and something an 11 year old would come up with. This line sums up everything thats wrong with this:'we ask some of the brightest minds we could find to some up the evidence and whilst they cant be sure of what it is, its very compelling'. So, you cant work out whats happening in your fuzzy pictures. That must mean Aliens have travelled light years to build mines, nuclear reactors, chimneys and buildings on the moon. Nasa is aware of these spacecraft/buildings and airbrush them out of NASA pictures except the ones the show uses. I got at least half way the arguments were so bloody ridiculous i was dumb founded and had to watch out of morbid curiosity. This must be a mockumentory. Nobody is this daft, surely? How Buzz Adlrin managed to keep his cool during interview is the real conspiracy here. Fairplay.

Not a documentary
tiggy-709743 March 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Not sure how this film got listed as a documentary, as I am sure that it is not.

The director, Robert Kiviat, has directed or produced a number of similar stories, all discounted by NASA and other experts. In my opinion, none of the evidence presented here stands up but it is easy to misread grainy old photographs and poor quality film - and also very easy to fake photographs if required.

Stories like this appeal to a lot of people, so many of us want them to be true, but dubious quality picture or film can be interpreted in different ways and the title of this film gives just one view.

A pity, as I would love a real alien story.

Terrible.. Plain disbelieves and utter bull-sh*t
jandeleeuw10020 April 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Actually pathetic and truly a disgrace to mankind...

The whole documentary they are just zooming in on NASA pictures, claiming to see some alien structure, wheels, hidden UFO's, etc., while these are just embossed crates of the moon. Actually I hated myself for even having watched this (partially)!! What kind of idiot makes this up and possibly photo shops some NASA images and actually believes it? Wow, how low can someone actually go by making a story of it and claiming this to be true.

I wanted to poke out my eyes with a needle for seeing this, worst is that I know some people might even get persuaded by this load of sh*t...

Utter Drivell
pault-webster18 September 2015
Warning: Spoilers
There really is nothing complementary to say about this steaming pile of conspiracy theory hyperbole.

It is filled from start to finish with the very worst collection of crackpot claims, laid forth as facts. If within the first two minutes of watching (maximum) you don't say to yourself... "Oh I see where this is going... pass the tin foil hats!!" I would be VERY surprised indeed. It has NO redeeming features what so ever, and no rational thinking individual has any need to even think about the merest possibility of contemplating the very idea of watching it.. The "science" is flawed, the assertions are just lunatic fringe ideas that you can find on many a crazy persons you-tube channel. Who ever funded this must be as mad as a hatter to believe in it, and to throw away their money. Utter UTTER Drivel....

Not bad
SanteeFats21 July 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Makes some very interesting viewing. This movie seems to actually prove that not only do aliens exist but are still there. There may even be more than one set of aliens that are actually fighting each other. Now if they are why is the earth being left alone? Too primitive perhaps?? The newly released unretouched photos when compared to the retouched ones does seem to show structures and possible space craft that are not man made. Why haven't the astronauts said anything? Buzz Aldrin is one still alive but he just says he doesn't want to get involved in the discussion. Does he know too much and is he terrified of aliens? Who knows??

Good for a laugh
account-184-12561122 February 2016
Warning: Spoilers
So much fake, so ridiculous. Putting one of the "experts" in front of a few (fake?) Nasa suits does not increase her credibility. I had to switch it off when they showed supposedly real footage of some vehicle or being siphoning "plasma from the sun". Based on how big the sun is, that...thing..., based on the picture we see, would have to be several hundred or thousand kilometers big. This is like the wet dream of some conspiracy theory bloggers. It might be fun if you do some drinking games, based on the usual terms they use, the "experts" ("paranormal investigator"), all the cliché "secrets" mentioned. Terrible, and I wonder why it's even on Netflix, it's something you usually only find on Youtube

What a load of crap!!!
embuzge30 September 2015
I mean really. How could they dare to interfere Buzz Aldrin with this document. Yes, he did see an UFO, it doesn't mean aliens! Everything he says in this interview goes against the conspiracy. But And it's a funny thing how the narrator continually mentions "the smartest people on earth" "leading astronomers" and "experts" and still I see none of them in the film.

Whole film is just about a blurry image, which someone has colored arbitrary. And even after that, I didn't see nothing weird in it. It's like seeing Jesus in your french toast. You see what you wanna see.

This wasn't even funny like "Ancient Aliens". Don't bother.

Mockumentary
vipjerry27 July 2014
Warning: Spoilers
I was listening Coast to Coast show few nights before this documentary and i was all hyped to hear something new or revolutionary. Sadly this documentary is complete 2 hour waste of time. Its watchable for lets say first half than it become ludicrous. Documentary degenerated into a redundancy of the same photos and commentary for most of the second hour. People who are related to ufology are probably familiar with all photos shown along with most of the discussion. Than at the end, alleged Apollo 18,19 and 20 unproven missions, along with the retrieved, female ET body came. At that point its credibility ended and it was clear this really is mockumentary.

As i said in title this is more or less television show in which fictional events are presented in documentary style to create a parody. This show analyze or comment on current events and issues by using a fictional setting.

Please future writers and directors don't make another documentary on the same subject until we get some new ultra high definition pictures from orbit.

I do not know if what is being discussed is real or imaginary.
jfarms195621 July 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Aliens on the Moon: The Truth Exposed is an interesting film. I do not know if what is being discussed is real or imaginary. This film was shown on the SciFi channel and not the history or any of the science channels. I do not know if it is another "War of the Worlds" films whereby they make the imaginary seem real. I do not know if the documentary style of the film is nonfiction. The film is geared to those who want to believe that we are not alone in the universe and that aliens could have visited the moon and possibly the earth. I watched and listened to the discussions of all the alien artifacts seen on the moon and around mars. Everything seems too incredible to be true. However, I do not think it would make any difference if aliens do/did exist. I find it scarier that we are alone in the universe instead of we are not alone. This is a serious thought provoking issue. Either way, we cannot do anything about it. Fiction or nonfiction, that is the question. I don't know. Too much Hollywood about aliens.
