Alien Abduction Movie
On saturday night, along with conspiracy author Jim Marrs, Ken Cherry and Terry Groff of the Dallas-Fort Worth Mutual UFO Network group, and a packed audience, I attended a midnight showing in Dallas of a new UFO movie titled Beings, which was screened as part of a series of events that were tied in with the AFI Dallas International Film Festival.
The brainchild of Texas film-maker Fredrick Wolcott, Beings is an intense, roller-coaster of a ride that follows the horrific experiences of four people who are abducted by alien creatures, and are subsequently subjected to a whole range of bizarre medical experiments. The movie takes an interesting approach and presents itself as much from the alien perspective as it does from that of the victims; and Wolcott skillfully creates an air of tension, drama, and menace that remains throughout.
It must be stressed that Beings is not for the faint-hearted; not is it a movie for those that see alien abductions as a phenomenon that is of benefit to the human race. In his movie, Wolcott pulls no punches and takes the viewer into a dark, and truly alien world of nightmarish proportions.
If you’re interested in UFO-driven movies, and didn’t get chance to attend on saturday, check out the website for Beings, and find out for yourself more about what I considered was a well-made, thoughtful production that wasn’t afraid to take chances and take the abduction puzzle down a seldom traveled road.

What? No friendly dolphins? No little big-headed grey guys in angst over the degradation of the biosphere? No humpback whales guiding in the mothership? Hmmmm. This may merit a look-see.

There is another movie released in 2006 called Altered. It is also not for the faint of heart. There are some scences of realistically depicted physical death. The plot revolves around several rednecks who were once abducted and experimented on in ways that are left somewhat murky, but it is clear whatever was done was unpleasant. One of them died, several were released, and one other escaped. Years later they manage to capture one of the critters that done the deed and now they have to decide what to do with him/it. The dilemma is that one of the men understands that this is a “Bambi vs. Godzilla” scenario, and if anything is done to the alien they risk the existence of the entire human race in retalliation.
It didn’t get stunning critic reviews but then most movie critics are aliens anway and I wouldn’t expect them to applaud a less than flattering view of their clansmen. I found it to be interesting and worth the time to watch if you can stomach a little gore.

I need to check that one out, and if one comes out called “Maneating Female Chupacabra Zombies From Hell”, be sure to let Nick know asap.

Bill:
If “Man-eating Female Chupacabras Zombies From Hell” comes out, I want a guest role!
March 26th, 2007 at 5:22 pm
“Man-eating Female Chupacabras Zombies From Hell†was the first girlfriend I ever had. Don’t think they’ve immortalized her in film yet but I do believe you can get the T-shirt!

Speaking of movies, here is an interesting online clip about objects on the moon. Scroll to the bottom of the page and the video is 3:54 long. I’ve never “seen” much in the Richard Hoagland images but these…
Nick, you’ve probably looked at a lot of images about “moon bases” and “structures” on the moon. How credible does this short clip strike you as being?
March 26th, 2007 at 5:59 pm
Nick,
As long as you hang around with Joshua Warren, you need to get him to show you his “Inbred Rednecks” movie. Its well and truly different, and the scene where the “heroes?” are camped out at night and a flying saucer (suspended on a string) flies past the moon is a laugh and a half.
March 26th, 2007 at 6:06 pm
Nick, Bill,
My first post didn’t appear to take. Have a gander at this online clip on moon structures. I never have given much credence to Hoagland’s “there are moon bases and structures” photos, but this film is intriguing. What are your takes?
March 27th, 2007 at 2:52 am
All this talk about female chupacabres from hell and inbred rednecks is making me homesick.

You should see the “giant fighting rooster’ the inbred rednecks have (a guy in a chicken suit)…it’ll have you headed straight for KFC !!! He’d make SEVERAL meal buckets!!!!
March 27th, 2007 at 9:21 am
I’ll definitely have to ask Josh to show me the film!

Raven…
I found that little film clip quite interesting. Was quite fascinated by the way some of the images of upright looking objects did indeed seem to have been digitally “smudged” to make them obscure. They really are smudged…that’s the exact word applicable here…and that realization caused me some amusement with regard to synchronicity. In Magick (with a K)….as opposed to James Randi or Penn & Teller “faux” hullabaloo….it is believed that discarnate entities (daimons, demons,”parasites”, etc.)can inhabit areas invisibly and to insure peace and serenity one needs to “clear” these areas. One tactic for doing this is by ordering out “unwanted ones” with
disbersal chants and by carrying a burning/smoking piece of sage (or sandalwood, or some other…but usually sage) around to all corners of a room as part of the departure ritual. This, humorously enough, is known as “smudging”. So “smudging” is, in magick, part of the technique for getting rid of something you don’t want around. Amusing how this carries over into these photos. Somebody is “smudging” THEM, too! Working to get rid of something they don’t want around.
“As below…so above?”

My first question as I watched that little clip was, “Is the guy giving a running description of the footage being shown, or did he give a verbal description and later someone “simulated” footage (could be innocent; meant just to help viewers visualize what the guy is talking about,) to go along with the commentary?
Inquiring minds want to know.
If the footage is genuine and it is what the guy giving the interview is addressing, that’s some of the most intriguing stuff I’ve seen to date.
March 27th, 2007 at 12:33 pm
It isn’t clear which of the two possibilities it is. It gives the appearance of being a running commentary but you can’t be absolutely sure of that.

On the topic of synchronicities, after the sleep paralysis type experience with a wolf-like entity as recorded in 3 Men (page 247), Dana cleansed our apartment with sage and if you accept the reality of these things and the ways to get rid of them (as I do -to both), then it worked. The immediate aftermath of that encounter was odd, with almost a looming air of menace - until we did the sage ritual and then it was gone.
March 27th, 2007 at 2:54 pm
I’ve heard this many times and have not a whit of trouble believing it. It is truly remarkable how this sort of thing works…although the materialist skeptopaths won’t hear of it (”Bah! Humbug!” Like Scrooge meeting Marley’s ghost with a litany of lame rationalizations).
The problem with NASA’s “smudge” job was that…IF these pix are authentic…they didn’t do a very good job in their “clearing”. A bit of obfuscation (and weak obfuscation at that) doesn’t add up to a banishment.
Ol’ Beelzebub is still there grinning at them!

try that one out and no, it’s not the Inquirer from Boca Raton.LOL!
speaks to non-believers in smudging, as well as to swamp gas, Joe Nickell’s owls, Randi, Penn & Teller and many others. May even peak the interest of red-hot hoochie-mama chupas…but I doubt it.

Well, THAT takes forever and a damn day to load!!! Geez Louise!!! It looks quicker just to go to http://www.anomalist.com and then go down an click on the fifth article down as of March 27th.

Seen the short video, maybe that’s where the many spheres sited on earth are coming from. I read sometime ago a book titled, Spaceship moon. Intresting book the author? had a change of heart regarding his thoughts on the moon. He gives a explaination why he thought moon travel stopped. There were a couple of intresting photos etc in this book that tie in with some of what this short video was mentioning. He mentioned in his info from nasa that at one point the moon rang like a bell when nasa crash landed their leftover spaceship on to the moon.
March 27th, 2007 at 5:08 pm
Some of these Von Daniken-style writers in the 1960s and 70s used to speculate that the moon was actually largely hollow and an artificial “construct”. They used that “rang like a bell” observation as part of their argument.
March 27th, 2007 at 8:29 pm
Dave,
I’ve heard several arguments to the effect that the moon is of artificial construction, or that it was moved into orbit around Earth by a deliberate act of “someone”.
I know one fact often cited is the fact that relative to the size of Earth, its moon is quite large. Apparently this parent-to-child size ratio is highly unusual. Following right on the heels of that statement is the comment that the apparent size of the full moon in our sky is virtually identical to the apparent size of the sun’s disk, which is also touted as being statistically unheard of.
Not being a statistician or astrophysicist I don’t have any numbers or examples of other star/planet/moon systems that would either confirm or refute the idea that these attributes of our moon are wildly improbable in terms of blind chance. From an untrained layman’s perspective the do sound like significant facts, but that could just be my own ignorance talking.

Is the film “Beings” any good? I didn’t get a sense of whether you liked it or not.
March 28th, 2007 at 9:59 am
Yeah, I enjoyed “Beings.” It’s very different to any other abduction-driven movie; and has a claustrophobic, nightmarish theme that runs throughout. And the makers of the film - in my opinion, at least - did a skillful job in creating what really did seem to be a truly alien environment.
So it’s certainly not a let-down - unlike the much-hyped kiss between Courtney Cox and Jennifer Anniston on last night’s “Dirt” that I sat in front of the TV eagerly awaiting.
Now, that WAS a letdown! Bah!

See, that’s where a Nintendo Wii comes in handy. Alien technology if ever there was any.

Hi all,
The Director/Producer Fred Wolcott will be our guest speaker at the next MUFON DFW meeting in Irving, TX. The meeting is April 15, 2007 at 2pm.
For more info go to the MUFON DFW website.

Beings sounds really interesting, I’m definitely going to have to check it out.
Maybe I’ll get some ideas for the next book in my Otherworld Series which deals with alien abduction. Getting Out Alive is the first book in this series. http://www.reginapaul.com
I’m always fascinated by different writer’s takes on this phenomenah. Never get tired of seeing what the new trend is.
