How can you trust anything from this Documentary?

Answer: YOU CAN'T.

It makes me wonder if it thinks people are stupid. It's disclaimer that "some parts are dramatized", "fiction" is flashed so fast and used so sparingly in this 2-hour waste of time that you'd think they were trying to cause a "War of the Worlds" situation intentionally! The only saving grace is that the acting, dialog, and special effects are not realistic.

This was just so underhanded, so despicable, that I'd have to give this special a terrible rating. The TV-mockumentary itself is OK, the presentation and intrigue is passable, but the story is riddled with clichés from the casting and costumes the doctors wear, to how the events that happen feel emotionless. Even the editing, if they wanted this to feel like a real thing, why would this film be edited to gratuity show over and over scene's of the doctor's young son's death just to try to make the doctor's story seem "real", make the show feel "emotional". This is not how you would treat a real person's death, yet alone an adolescent child. It's just those kinds of aspects that really bring this show down that could otherwise be maybe a 5 or 6.
