    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Throughout the autopsy, you can see the hands of the clock in the background constantly changing, revealing it was a hoax.
    • Goofs
      The wall phone in the "autopsy" room is very similar to a Model 554, introduced in 1949. The narration claims it dates from 1937, but that's the date of the first Model 302, which is quite different.
    • Alternate versions
      Each time the Fox network reran this "one-hour special," they promoted it as containing previously unaired footage, which meant something else had been edited out to make room for the new material. It is unclear which of the broadcast versions was used for the video release, where, in any event, the program is followed by (apparently all of) the raw footage.

    If it is true....It's the find of the century!
    This film is a documentary that shows a 17 minute film that is suppose to show some of a 1947 Roswell UFO alien autopsy. Contains many interviews and even does a for and against argument against the validity of the footage. I suggest it for any UFO buff just for the chance for them to see the footage. Johnathan Drake hosted this show that originally aired on FOX TV.
