Spoiler Alert
Clive Christopher is a Guerrilla style filmmaker looking for a connection between what the indigenous people of Arizona are saying about visitors from the skies, and the information presented in Aliens Uncovered: The Land of Legends is rather fascinating. It is about time we get a look at this world, and I suspect watching this together with UFOs over Arizona and Buried Cities & Lost Tribes paints a bigger picture than this latest alone.
While this work mentions this tribal connection in the first segment, that’s as far as this documentary will go. Apparently, one of the earliest first contacts occurred at Camp Navajo and it doesn’t concern ancient aliens! Although much of what happened remains top secret, enough whistleblowers provided information to create this latest entry to the series. Artificial intelligence video rendered much of this segment, and though the animation style has an alien feel because I feel the technology for realism isn’t there, I suspect Christopher intentionally wanted to give this segment that otherworldly feel.
And when The Phoenix Lights is the most famous sighting in this state, even I had to wonder just how frequently (if not brazen) the little green men are when they want to make their presence known. This next segment offers a bit of new insight about Arizona’s most famous. They’re called the boomerang UFOs and while the footage offered are from citizens doing their best shakycam recordings, at least the feel of authenticity is there. The most hilarious line is, “Oh no, I forgot to hit the record button.”
But the information I wanted to hear about the aboriginal stories isn’t as prominent as the title of this instalment suggests. It’s only the first story that sets the tone, and it deviates from there. Unless I missed a statement that this filmmaker approached some local tribesmen and found them unwilling to share their tales, perhaps it’s just a matter of time for someone else to break the ice. What I seem to recall is that these aliens are from the Pleiades cluster, and their intentions are to keep a fair distance away, but still let the denizens of Earth they are watching.
