The film is inspired by late author and US Ufologist John Keel (famous for his Mothman Prophecies book and film starring Richard Gere). Keel was as journalist by trade and he used his
Investigative skills to look at the UFO phenomena. As well as going through thousands of archive newspaper reports he also looked at strange aerial sightings throughout history.
He concluded that there was a weird almost paranormal element to them and somehow they were adapting to the culture of our times. He called it the Cosmic Joker or trickster as it always seemed to be playing with humanity…teasing us…we get close think we know the truth and then….bam,…something else comes along to confuse us.
Award winning film-maker and UFO researcher Mark Christopher Lee states:
“I wanted to make this film to look in detail at the sheer weirdness of the UFO experience. We investigate the Robert Taylor incident in Scotland of a Forest worker who claimed he was attacked by an alien that looked like a sea mine with strange metallic sharp appendages, then we also compare this to the Pascagoula event in the US where 2 men out fishing were taken on board a spaceship by beings with weird crab like pincers….why…what does this mean? Is Keel right that there is a Cosmic Joker out there - some intelligence that is playing with us?”
Did Robert Taylor who was a World War veteran see the entity as looking like a sea mine as that was an image he had from his time serving in the army….or did the intelligence take that appearance because of his experience?
Did the 2 fishermen Calvin Parker and Charles Hickson see the Aliens with crab like appendages because that’s an image that they were familiar with or did this intelligence create that appearance on purpose?
Lee adds:
“There’s definitely enough evidence of this trickster being behind UFOs, maybe it’s an intelligence from a different realm or dimension of reality. I do think that the US government knows this and this is why they will never release the truth to the public…as it’s far weirder and more to it than just aliens from another planet!”
