Dreamland: Inside Area 51
One of the first documentaries I ever made was on a man called Bob Lazar & a top secret military facility out in the Nevada desert called Area 51. I’m now turning that into a feature film called DREAMLAND.
And what a story it is. Most people have heard of Area 51, but not many know the true facts. In 1989 a 30 year old scientist called Bob Lazar walked into a Las Vegas television station in and claimed that he had worked out in the desert at Area 51, in a underground facility called S4.
He said that he worked as a contractor for the Department of Naval Intelligence, through a defense subsidiary called EG&G, and that his job was to ‘reverse engineer’ the propulsion system of a ‘recovered’ alien spacecraft.
He claims that he received detailed, top secret, briefings on a number of ‘recoveries’ that had been made by the US government of ‘crashed space vehicles’ as well as EBE’s ‘extra-terrestrial biological entities’.
He also claims to have witnessed ‘test flights’ of ‘man-made’ flying craft which were utilizing this ‘alien’ technology. He claimed his life was in danger and that was why he was going public.
But was any of it true? Or just a cleverly created fantasy? From my perspective, I have met Bob several times over the years, and he has never varied or tried to embellish his story to me in any way.
George Knapp, the Las Vegas TV reporter who Lazar broke his story to has spent over 20 years investigating his claims, and after verifying much of his background and talking to other people who claimed to have worked out at Area 51, Knapp believes that most of his story is, in fact, true.
Either way, I believe this could be a great film, and I need your help to make it. I’m raising funds on Indiegogo so go to www.indiegogo.com and search for ‘Dreamland: Inside Area 51’

The Forbidden Archaeologist
A feature-length documentary film
A documentary film about one man’s struggle to make us re-think our understanding of human origins, identity and destiny. Over the past two centuries researchers have found bones and artifacts showing that civilized communities existed on earth millions of years ago. But the scientific establishment has suppressed, ignored and dismissed these remarkable facts. Why? Because they contradict the accepted academic and historical view of human origins, which says that humans like ourselves within the last 100,000 years. The man behind the controversy is the author and researcher Michael A. Cremo, who, since 1984, alongside his longtime collaborator Richard L. Thompson, has investigated the finds, lectured, debated and traveled the world crusading to have these discoveries given the consideration and importance that he passionately believes they deserve. A film about one quiet man’s relentless crusade against the odds which challenges the very core of our existence.

Did he come back from the dead or was there trickery involved? Was his message distorted by the emerging Church in Rome, and if so, why?

The Scole Experiment
2 x 1 hours
A dramatised documentary film which tells the remarkable true story of Alan & Diana Bennett, and Robin and Sandra Foy. Two middle aged couples living in Norfolk, UK, who had shared a lifetime’s interest in the paranormal and mediumship. In the mid-nineties, they set out on a major experiment, to try and find hard evidence that there is life after death. The events that took place over five years were so astounding that respected scientists, psychologists and physicists, who had been asked to observe, test and record what took place, all confirmed that some form of ‘paranormal manifestations’ had taken place.
In the field of Ghosts and Paranormal research, nothing like this had ever happened before. Several times jewels and even silver cutlery crashed down onto the table, handwriting, symbols, and messages appeared on unopened, factory sealed photographic film, and on one occasion, a 1940’s copy of the Daily Mirror newspaper fell onto the table with the paper still in its white, un-oxidized state. It remains the perhaps the most important, and yet almost unknown, work into paranormal contact yet made.

Can we Time Travel?
1 x 1 hour
Scientist Professor David Pares believes that we can, and he’s embarking on an ambitious experiment to prove it. After nearly two decades of painstaking research, Pares thinks that powerful solar flares can pierce through weakened around of our magnetosphere and ‘supercharge’ high altitude clouds, creating ‘mega electric’ storms which can, in turn, create time and space distortions for aircraft that are caught in them. It sounds the stuff of science fiction, but Pares says he is going to prove it. He is going to rig up a small, light aircraft with the very latest sensors, and repeatedly fly test flights over the Atlantic ocean, in the area known as the Bermuda Triangle, where many pilots have reported being ‘caught’ in electric storms and vortices, where their instruments malfunction, and they appear to ‘lose’ time.
The key, Pares says, is to time the test flights with known solar flare discharges and hope that they are able to break through the atmosphere and ‘super charge’ the columns of storm clouds. Pares believes that if we can learn more about this phenomena, and perhaps harness this immense energy, then it will forever revolutionize how we travel, on this planet, and to others.
