Christopher Graybill, director of the excellent documentary SAUCERS, SPOOKS AND KOOKS (based on Adam Gorightly's 2021 book of the same name), recently launched a Kickstarter campaign to create a blu-ray release of the film with some important extras added... and there are only eighteen days left! SAUCERS, SPOOKS AND KOOKS is the perfect antidote to this Age of UFO Grifters and Endless "Disclosure" Predictions that go nowhere at all.

Here's Christopher Graybill's (somewhat facetious) pitch...
"Greetings, fellow travelers, truth-seekers, and fringe-dwellers.
"If you are reading this, you’ve likely already stumbled across our documentary, Saucers, Spooks and Kooks, out there floating in the digital ether of VHX, or the podcast. You’ve perhaps seen the military-intelligence mind games, and the beautiful, bizarre characters that populate the outer fringes of the UFO mythos. The official trailer is here.
"But let’s be entirely honest with ourselves: the New World Order is out to get this thing shut down. I’ve already had my MiB warning. I need to get this movie out in a physical form that you can hold and hide from those goons.
"That is why we are launching this campaign. We are taking Saucers, Spooks and Kooks out of the digital matrix and pressing it into the definitive physical formats it deserves: a premium, boutique-quality Blu-ray and an ultra-limited, analog VHS tape.
"This is an artifact of high-strangeness that you'll want to hold in your own two hands, and this Kickstarter is the only way it gets manufactured."
I highly recommend seeing Gorightly and Graybill's documentary... and not just because I'm in it! Gorightly and Graybill do a tremendous job of making a complex, disjointed, nonlinear, decades-spanning tale of dubious aliens and international intrigue surprisingly lucid. Here's the filmmakers' official synopsis of the project:
Saucers, Spooks, and Kooks is a journey through the lesser-known history of the UFO narrative, exploring its origins and evolution — a story that continues to shape how we perceive the current UFO phenomenon.
A cautionary tale of disinformation, Saucers, Spooks, and Kooks follows the story of scientist Paul Bennewitz, who was targeted by a mind-bending counterintelligence campaign that gave rise to enduring UFO lore. The themes of this incident spread into the 1980s UFO scene, and eventually found their way to movies and shows like The X-Files, captivating a new generation of believers. Tropes like the "Greys," underground "Reptilian" bases, and crashed saucers have had an enduring influence on popular culture and still determine how we see the UFO phenomenon today.
