In the continuation of our interview with the mastermind behind
the infamous and legendary Alien Autopsy film, director,
producer, conceptual artist, and magician, Spyros Melaris, we
learn more about the process of its creation and the aftermath of
its release upon the world. But if you think this is just
one more case of "Mystery Solved! Nothing to see here, folks!"
you may not be considering its broader scope. Because not
only is this a rare case where the magician reveals how they did
the trick, but its story reveals a glimpse into human nature, a
peek behind the curtain of our beliefs and disbeliefs. The
smaller picture is the mechanics behind what we see in the
frame. The bigger picture is a contemplation of how and why
we believe the things we do. Keeping in mind that nothing
in the film could be disproven at the time; if you didn't buy
what you saw or didn't bother to look, ask yourself, was it
because what you saw didn't look authentic in your estimation, or
was it because you think the reality of it is impossible?
For those who demand proof of aliens before they accept the idea,
why not look at all? For those that believed, was it an
open mind that entertained its veracity or merely wishful
thinking, and what does it take to foment disbelief? What
keeps some believing even after revealing the trick? With
the word hoax being so currently prominent in our society, it
certainly seems beneficial to examine one of the world's greatest
hoaxes and the hoaxer's methods. The Alien Autopsy film
defined for many the adage "Seeing is Believing" to mean seeing
in person, but how can we trust what we see? The proof of
alien life would be the biggest story on the planet. What
we would consider the evidence and how we would handle it is our
own biggest mystery.
