Summary: Utter ...
Review: I only spent [money] on this one and it wasn't even worth that much. The pictures of an autopsy on the back are not actually part of the DVD. All of the segments are insanely fake and none of the usual interesting alien segments were featured. Watch the Discovery Channel instead. At least that one is free.

Summary: Absolutely worthless apart from a decent Strieber interview
Review: This is just one of a plethora of bad UFO-related videos out there on the market; as someone with a strong interest in ufology and alien encounters, it bothers me to see videos of this type being distributed in the interest of money and little else. Even the most serious of believers cannot take the bulk of the material here seriously, and the producers make no effort to authenticate or seemingly even investigate all of the wild claims put forth by those interviewed here. Among the more outrageous features are an interview with two of Earth's representatives in the "Galactic Federation," as well as a man and woman claiming to be alien-human hybrids produced in a secret government-alien conspiracy some forty+ years ago. I happen to take the hybrid theory seriously, but the people we see in this video are, by all indications, actors (and not very good ones). Several interviewees sound as if they must be reading a script, and even the inflection and presentation of different people in different stories is oddly similar.

There is one decent feature included on the video, though, explaining why I give this item a generous two stars. Whitley Strieber, in the course of his few minutes of time, provides a sincere, serious discussion of the issues he focuses on from his own mysterious encounters. After that, there is really nothing worth watching. Host Lee Majors seems out-of-place in such a setting, and the fact that he never moves any part of his body below the neck eventually becomes rather weird. Those with an interest in the subject at hand will find next to nothing in this video, and I would particularly hope that those natural skeptics out there do not see UFO Chronicles - with its bad presentation, it does as good of a job debunking UFOs as our government has done over the past few decades.
