00:05:14,450 remembers in these stunning sort of 101 00:05:19,330 --> 00:05:17,120 surreal impressionistic paintings and 102 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:19,340 this film is his story trying to tell it 103 00:05:24,370 --> 00:05:21,530 as matter-of-factly as one can tell a 104 00:05:26,710 --> 00:05:24,380 story like this yeah and you know as 105 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:26,720 we'll get to he's pretty pretty blunt 106 00:05:32,380 --> 00:05:29,810 about it yeah he didn't really tippy-toe 107 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:32,390 around you know I think I was maybe 108 00:05:36,990 --> 00:05:33,370 taken 109 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:37,000 that well will exactly get into that but 110 00:05:41,969 --> 00:05:39,610 how I have to ask to you like how did 111 00:05:44,460 --> 00:05:41,979 the idea for the film come about how did 112 00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:44,470 you even get involved in the UFO topic 113 00:05:50,100 --> 00:05:47,290 and get connected with David well it was 114 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:50,110 um not UFO specifically but just sort of 115 00:05:55,500 --> 00:05:53,410 esoteric paranormal just these these 116 00:05:57,510 --> 00:05:55,510 hidden little-known stories have always 117 00:05:58,590 --> 00:05:57,520 been a passion of mine just personally 118 00:06:00,450 --> 00:05:58,600 like reading about them because who 119 00:06:05,189 --> 00:06:00,460 isn't fascinated by you know discovering 120 00:06:08,850 --> 00:06:05,199 a city or ancient culture but as a way 121 00:06:10,710 --> 00:06:08,860 to you know as a filmmaker and and I did 122 00:06:14,700 --> 00:06:10,720 commercials before this just as a visual 123 00:06:16,290 --> 00:06:14,710 storyteller what better way to to expose 124 00:06:17,430 --> 00:06:16,300 people to these stories that they may 125 00:06:20,219 --> 00:06:17,440 never have heard about or heard about 126 00:06:22,469 --> 00:06:20,229 and in a particular way then filmmaking 127 00:06:27,420 --> 00:06:22,479 and documentary filmmaking so that's 128 00:06:30,029 --> 00:06:27,430 that's how I got into this this niche of 129 00:06:31,830 --> 00:06:30,039 filmmaking not necessarily like UFO but 130 00:06:34,230 --> 00:06:31,840 I because of this I I was always 131 00:06:37,260 --> 00:06:34,240 listening to podcasts and you know about 132 00:06:39,540 --> 00:06:37,270 five six years ago seven years ago there 133 00:06:41,700 --> 00:06:39,550 were only a few of these sorts of 134 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:41,710 paranormal ish podcast and I think I was 135 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:43,570 listening to the podcast and I had just 136 00:06:48,719 --> 00:06:45,849 quit my my full-time job in advertising 137 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:48,729 and was sort of on had my ears pricked 138 00:06:53,940 --> 00:06:51,130 up for for any ideas I could do as an 139 00:06:55,890 --> 00:06:53,950 independent filmmaker and they were 140 00:06:58,159 --> 00:06:55,900 talking about the abductee experience in 141 00:07:00,540 --> 00:06:58,169 sort of listing different cases and 142 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:00,550 offhand as something like too ridiculous 143 00:07:05,939 --> 00:07:02,650 for them to discuss was this guy David 144 00:07:08,189 --> 00:07:05,949 Huggins who claims he fathered a hundred 145 00:07:10,710 --> 00:07:08,199 space babies across the galaxy and then 146 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:10,720 they laughed and and moved on and but 147 00:07:14,250 --> 00:07:12,610 for me that was like the you know the 148 00:07:16,110 --> 00:07:14,260 thing I remembered out of everything 149 00:07:18,060 --> 00:07:16,120 from

209 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:42,700 all out because I'd never met someone 210 00:09:48,740 --> 00:09:45,090 who was so like immediately like 211 00:09:51,420 --> 00:09:48,750 grounding down to earth simply spoken 212 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:51,430 matter-of-fact about the the most like 213 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:53,770 bizarre things you'll you'll ever hear 214 00:09:59,250 --> 00:09:57,210 so it immediately creates this this 215 00:10:00,710 --> 00:09:59,260 conflict in your brain where you're like 216 00:10:04,100 --> 00:10:00,720 I shouldn't be like believing 217 00:10:06,259 --> 00:10:04,110 what he's saying but because of who he 218 00:10:08,389 --> 00:10:06,269 is like his character I sort of have to 219 00:10:11,030 --> 00:10:08,399 because he's not some like ranting 220 00:10:12,350 --> 00:10:11,040 lunatic he's and everyone that's met him 221 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:12,360 will say like David's just seems like 222 00:10:16,929 --> 00:10:14,730 the nicest normal guy so it makes you 223 00:10:19,879 --> 00:10:16,939 stop and pause and and consider 224 00:10:21,379 --> 00:10:19,889 listening and so that that was really 225 00:10:23,660 --> 00:10:21,389 what made it worth it for me to pursue 226 00:10:26,259 --> 00:10:23,670 like over the years to to finish this 227 00:10:29,030 --> 00:10:26,269 film well I mean that the over the years 228 00:10:30,829 --> 00:10:29,040 comment bread I'd love to know this 229 00:10:32,389 --> 00:10:30,839 wasn't like shooting for a week with 230 00:10:33,980 --> 00:10:32,399 this dude hearing his story and then 231 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:33,990 never talk to him again like this was a 232 00:10:39,170 --> 00:10:37,050 pretty rigorous process how long did you 233 00:10:42,499 --> 00:10:39,180 film David when you were shooting the 234 00:10:44,749 --> 00:10:42,509 film it was over over a few years with 235 00:10:47,090 --> 00:10:44,759 with like long breaks in between because 236 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:47,100 just the reality of independent 237 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:48,569 filmmaking is you you don't have much 238 00:10:52,189 --> 00:10:50,250 money and when you when you do have 239 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:52,199 money it's still not a lot so you can 240 00:10:56,900 --> 00:10:54,569 only go shoot for a few days at a time 241 00:10:59,929 --> 00:10:56,910 but but what's good about that process 242 00:11:02,059 --> 00:10:59,939 is then it takes much longer and you get 243 00:11:04,759 --> 00:11:02,069 you get to know your subject much better 244 00:11:06,980 --> 00:11:04,769 you see them over a greater period of 245 00:11:09,230 --> 00:11:06,990 time it actually helps to flesh out the 246 00:11:11,210 --> 00:11:09,240 story as opposed to you know I'm just 247 00:11:13,579 --> 00:11:11,220 gonna go film with you for two or three 248 00:11:16,249 --> 00:11:13,589 weeks straight and then have a finished 249 00:11:19,850 --> 00:11:16,259 film so so that's it was it was really 250 00:11:24,259 --> 00:11:19,860 just like a weekend or three or four 251 00:11:26,329 --> 00:11:24,269 days every maybe year or six months or 252 00:11:28,249 --> 00:11:26,339 so and then it started accelerating as 253 00:11:30,319 --> 00:11:28,259 we had more support and knew that we had 254 00:11:32,059 --> 00:11:30,329 like a pretty good film on our hands and 255 00:11:33,829 --> 00:11:32,069 opened it up and started filming you 256 00:11:36,319 --> 00:11:33,839 know Jeffrey crippled and and some of 257 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:36,329 David's friends and colleagues yeah yeah 258 00:11:41,509 --> 00:11:39,569 and I mean you did mention the you know 259 00:11:43,429 --> 00:11:41,519 the VHS is you saw when he went into his 260 00:11:46,129 --> 00:11:43,439 house which was really cool by the way 261 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:46,139 as someone who grew up on VHS like that 262 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:49,050 was it was a very uh nostalgic moment 263 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:51,689 seeing those stacked you know 10 hi all 264 00:11:57,110 --> 00:11:54,930 across the room as for his paintings did 265 00:11:59,569 --> 00:11:57,120 you know that I mean you you had 266 00:12:01,819 --> 00:11:59,579 mentioned that you saw the book that um 267 00:12:04,519 --> 00:12:01,829 Farrah had created about all of his 268 00:12:06,079 --> 00:12:04,529 experiences but did you know walking in 269 00:12:08,269 --> 00:12:06,089 there that you were going to see like 270 00:12:11,179 --> 00:12:08,279 these massive huge paintings that this 271 00:12:13,579 --> 00:12:11,189 guy had made no not at all and I only 272 00:12:14,569 --> 00:12:13,589 found out about the painting part like a 273 00:12:17,359 --> 00:12:14,579 little deeper into 274 00:12:18,739 --> 00:12:17,369 research on him and once I saw some of 275 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:18,749 the images there were very low res what 276 00:12:22,999 --> 00:12:20,610 was online but I could still like 277 00:12:24,979 --> 00:12:23,009 immediately tell like they're very they 278 00:12:27,949 --> 00:12:24,989 were very arresting and they're all 279 00:12:29,660 --> 00:12:27,959 painted in a way that there there's a 280 00:12:31,999 --> 00:12:29,670 story being told in them they're very 281 00:12:33,530 --> 00:12:32,009 cinematic which is unique especially for 282 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:33,540 someone who's who's mostly self-taught 283 00:12:37,309 --> 00:12:35,850 and they're so they're like as a girl 284 00:12:39,530 --> 00:12:37,319 like you see you pick up like these are 285 00:12:41,900 --> 00:12:39,540 these are little scenes from from a film 286 00:12:44,509 --> 00:12:41,910 the composition the lighting the action 287 00:12:46,729 --> 00:12:44,519 in them and but you know I was not 288 00:12:49,009 --> 00:12:46,739 prepared for when I actually stepped 289 00:12:52,460 --> 00:12:49,019 into that room because just the sheer 290 00:12:53,869 --> 00:12:52,470 volume of them and and then the size 291 00:12:57,199 --> 00:12:53,879 like some of them are like eight feet 292 00:12:59,660 --> 00:12:57,209 tall it really it really sort of grabs 293 00:13:01,669 --> 00:12:59,670 you and you're almost like jaw-dropping 294 00:13:03,530 --> 00:13:01,679 and it was the same effect when I we 295 00:13:05,359 --> 00:13:03,540 returned with some crew like a 296 00:13:07,179 --> 00:13:05,369 cinematographer and sound guy and 297 00:13:09,979 --> 00:13:07,189 producer they were just like oh my god 298 00:13:12,079 --> 00:13:09,989 and every time we went we would find 299 00:13:13,220 --> 00:13:12,089 more paintings that we we hadn't seen 300 00:13:15,799 --> 00:13:13,230 like I thought like the first time I 301 00:13:17,239 --> 00:13:15,809 photographed like 75 paintings and then 302 00:13:19,100 --> 00:13:17,249 each time we'd come back there's like oh 303 00:13:20,509 --> 00:13:19,110 five new ones yeah they're an in person 304 00:13:24,439 --> 00:13:20,519 that's the effect of them is even more 305 00:13:26,179 --> 00:13:24,449 eerie them than the photos yeah they're 306 00:13:28,939 --> 00:13:26,189 extremely arresting like you said like 307 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:28,949 you know he's he was self-taught so 308 00:13:34,419 --> 00:13:31,290 they're a bit amateur at times but I 309 00:13:36,769 --> 00:13:34,429 mean I'm no art expert but they're so 310 00:13:39,859 --> 00:13:36,779 engaging some of them when you look into 311 00:13:43,340 --> 00:13:39,869 the eyes like the creatures or you know 312 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:43,350 just just the the action you see in each 313 00:13:48,590 --> 00:13:45,569 painting like you can tell that this 314 00:13:51,229 --> 00:13:48,600 dude is struggling to get this out onto 315 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:51,239 the canvas and I think that's extremely 316 00:13:55,549 --> 00:13:53,730 alluring and something you use as a 317 00:13:57,530 --> 00:13:55,559 really cool technique throughout the 318 00:14:00,139 --> 00:13:57,540 film when he's telling his stories um 319 00:14:03,229 --> 00:14:00,149 but before we even get to like what he 320 00:14:06,229 --> 00:14:03,239 claims happened you do go into like a 321 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:06,239 deep dissection of this man's life which 322 00:14:10,789 --> 00:14:08,610 i think it was very important I wanted 323 00:14:13,340 --> 00:14:10,799 to know where he came from 324 00:14:16,329 --> 00:14:13,350 you know what brought him to Hoboken New 325 00:14:18,859 --> 00:14:16,339 Jersey and what essentially became this 326 00:14:21,289 --> 00:14:18,869 incredible story and it was pretty 327 00:14:24,559 --> 00:14:21,299 interesting to hear that he he fled a 328 00:14:27,259 --> 00:14:24,569 very religious upbringing and belief 329 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:27,269 seems to be a big part of the alien 330 00:14:30,050 --> 00:14:28,290 abduction phenomenon 331 00:14:33,379 --> 00:14:30,060 so I have to ask you do you think that 332 00:14:35,060 --> 00:14:33,389 his rejection of religion early in his 333 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:35,070 life do you think that had anything to 334 00:14:41,300 --> 00:14:38,970 do with how he sort of perceived or 335 00:14:42,710 --> 00:14:41,310 wrapped this whole alien abduction thing 336 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:42,720 in his life 337 00:14:48,829 --> 00:14:44,610 it that that's an it's an interesting 338 00:14:51,079 --> 00:14:48,839 angle because yes he did he did reject 339 00:14:52,730 --> 00:14:51,089 the religion that was forced upon him I 340 00:14:55,430 --> 00:14:52,740 think like a lot of people are 341 00:14:58,340 --> 00:14:55,440 especially creative people may but he's 342 00:15:00,379 --> 00:14:58,350 also a very spiritual person like he 343 00:15:01,610 --> 00:15:00,389 meditates he does the Chinese like 344 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:01,620 eaching which is sort of like their 345 00:15:07,129 --> 00:15:05,130 Tarot he does yoga he reads a lot of 346 00:15:09,889 --> 00:15:07,139 like sort of spiritual practices he's 347 00:15:12,079 --> 00:15:09,899 not new agey but there's definitely I 348 00:15:15,019 --> 00:15:12,089 think was a void and maybe to a certain 349 00:15:16,970 --> 00:15:15,029 extent and all of us of like wanting to 350 00:15:20,059 --> 00:15:16,980 believe in something like other than 351 00:15:23,389 --> 00:15:20,069 just the the flesh and but Jeffrey cry 352 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:23,399 pool took it one step further in 353 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:26,130 suggesting that that the alien it was 354 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:29,730 really this this mythos and in universe 355 00:15:34,819 --> 00:15:32,370 of the aliens that that helped fill that 356 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:34,829 void or among other things became his 357 00:15:38,990 --> 00:15:36,930 like a new sort of thing for him to 358 00:15:40,519 --> 00:15:39,000 believe in or a new religion for him 359 00:15:42,439 --> 00:15:40,529 yeah Jeffrey creep was definitely 360 00:15:44,180 --> 00:15:42,449 someone I want to talk about been 361 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:44,190 following his work for years so we'll 362 00:15:51,470 --> 00:15:46,290 definitely get to his thoughts on all 363 00:15:54,710 --> 00:15:51,480 this but in the film bread there is this 364 00:15:56,329 --> 00:15:54,720 I guess quote-unquote woman that David 365 00:15:58,160 --> 00:15:56,339 constantly brings up and that her name 366 00:16:01,610 --> 00:15:58,170 is Crescent but he give us a little 367 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:01,620 background on who Crescent may be sure 368 00:16:07,309 --> 00:16:04,490 so there was a there was a consistent 369 00:16:09,439 --> 00:16:07,319 cast of characters that that would visit 370 00:16:12,439 --> 00:16:09,449 him the little hairy guy the insect 371 00:16:17,269 --> 00:16:12,449 being this tall skinny guy with a nub on 372 00:16:20,210 --> 00:16:17,279 his head and the greys and but the one 373 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:20,220 that that was more consistently there 374 00:16:25,490 --> 00:16:21,930 and that had the biggest impression on 375 00:16:28,249 --> 00:16:25,500 him was this a female and he calls her a 376 00:16:32,389 --> 00:16:28,259 female hybrid because everything about 377 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:32,399 her seemed so human physically except 378 00:16:38,179 --> 00:16:35,130 for the face and the face had an almost 379 00:16:42,079 --> 00:16:38,189 classic gray look except more feminine 380 00:16:44,269 --> 00:16:42,089 and she had human-like hair and at 381 00:16:46,759 --> 00:16:44,279 when he was younger their relationship 382 00:16:49,790 --> 00:16:46,769 seemed she was almost like a caring 383 00:16:53,119 --> 00:16:49,800 Guardian type figure maybe even motherly 384 00:16:56,389 --> 00:16:53,129 but once he reached sexual maturity and 385 00:17:00,110 --> 00:16:56,399 at 17 that relationship changed into 386 00:17:03,350 --> 00:17:00,120 something sexual and romantic and she 387 00:17:06,380 --> 00:17:03,360 she took [\h__\h] of a role on as a almost 388 00:17:10,309 --> 00:17:06,390 like a significant other but she was one 389 00:17:12,230 --> 00:17:10,319 of of many of these hybrid females she 390 00:17:14,659 --> 00:17:12,240 was just the one that he interfaced with 391 00:17:16,850 --> 00:17:14,669 the most and connected with and he gave 392 00:17:19,220 --> 00:17:16,860 her that name cresent I don't think any 393 00:17:22,549 --> 00:17:19,230 of them actually had names as we know 394 00:17:25,549 --> 00:17:22,559 them and the idea that that Crescent was 395 00:17:27,590 --> 00:17:25,559 I guess sort of manipulating David's 396 00:17:29,570 --> 00:17:27,600 mind and his body throughout all this 397 00:17:31,519 --> 00:17:29,580 it's very controversial and we do hear 398 00:17:33,889 --> 00:17:31,529 this a lot in alien abduction lore but 399 00:17:35,539 --> 00:17:33,899 David also stated and this is one of my 400 00:17:37,909 --> 00:17:35,549 favorite lines in the whole film and 401 00:17:40,490 --> 00:17:37,919 kinda gave me chills was they were 402 00:17:42,710 --> 00:17:40,500 always invited and that was really 403 00:17:44,659 --> 00:17:42,720 interesting there seems to be this this 404 00:17:46,730 --> 00:17:44,669 willingness that let them do whatever 405 00:17:48,889 --> 00:17:46,740 they wanted with him even though he 406 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:48,899 seemed to have like you know pretty much 407 00:17:54,139 --> 00:17:51,450 no choice in the matter do you think 408 00:17:55,909 --> 00:17:54,149 that if he didn't want these events to 409 00:17:58,159 --> 00:17:55,919 happen that he could have somehow 410 00:18:01,820 --> 00:17:58,169 stopped it no that's really tough to say 411 00:18:05,269 --> 00:18:01,830 because well one one small detail was 412 00:18:06,889 --> 00:18:05,279 that like we noticed that in the 413 00:18:09,470 --> 00:18:06,899 paintings were they're they're having 414 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:09,480 sex she's always on top of him so we we 415 00:18:14,269 --> 00:18:11,610 just asked like why why is that and he 416 00:18:16,850 --> 00:18:14,279 said because I was always I felt 417 00:18:20,269 --> 00:18:16,860 paralyzed and it was just easier that 418 00:18:22,789 --> 00:18:20,279 way so she wasn't really didn't seem 419 00:18:24,470 --> 00:18:22,799 like he was really able to move when 420 00:18:26,510 --> 00:18:24,480 this was happening and and he didn't say 421 00:18:28,070 --> 00:18:26,520 it was unpleasant at all but it's an 422 00:18:30,590 --> 00:18:28,080 interesting fact 423 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:30,600 and whenever especially when he was 424 00:18:34,940 --> 00:18:32,490 younger whenever he was like upset about 425 00:18:37,279 --> 00:18:34,950 what was going on or scared or didn't 426 00:18:39,769 --> 00:18:37,289 like it they would be able to to placate 427 00:18:42,230 --> 00:18:39,779 him you know like make pain go away or 428 00:18:45,139 --> 00:18:42,240 make the bad feelings go away so it 429 00:18:49,519 --> 00:18:45,149 sounds like there was some psychological 430 00:18:52,039 --> 00:18:49,529 or telepathic type of of influence and I 431 00:18:53,630 --> 00:18:52,049 but I don't think that that that was 432 00:18:55,389 --> 00:18:53,640 everything because you you still have I 433 00:18:57,909 --> 00:18:55,399 think the majority of 434 00:18:58,930 --> 00:18:57,919 abductees don't consider their her 435 00:19:01,690 --> 00:18:58,940 abduction 'he's like positive 436 00:19:03,399 --> 00:19:01,700 experiences so even though even if they 437 00:19:06,310 --> 00:19:03,409 were controlled on some level they still 438 00:19:09,339 --> 00:19:06,320 didn't end up liking it but with david i 439 00:19:11,799 --> 00:19:09,349 think there was coercion but he still 440 00:19:13,599 --> 00:19:11,809 liked it he still you know it was still 441 00:19:16,419 --> 00:19:13,609 a positive in his mind maybe that's why 442 00:19:18,879 --> 00:19:16,429 it kept continuing to because he didn't 443 00:19:22,089 --> 00:19:18,889 have any resistance yeah yeah that's a 444 00:19:23,739 --> 00:19:22,099 good point and yeah i mean despite the 445 00:19:25,719 --> 00:19:23,749 whole idea of it being you know 446 00:19:28,989 --> 00:19:25,729 pleasurable or wanting it to continue 447 00:19:31,659 --> 00:19:28,999 there seemed to be like this overall 448 00:19:33,459 --> 00:19:31,669 mission you know by these creatures of 449 00:19:36,339 --> 00:19:33,469 why they were doing it and I found it 450 00:19:38,139 --> 00:19:36,349 fascinating that David was so sincere in 451 00:19:40,709 --> 00:19:38,149 that idea that he was you know somehow 452 00:19:43,570 --> 00:19:40,719 being used for this almost like 453 00:19:45,190 --> 00:19:43,580 hybridization program we hear this by 454 00:19:47,469 --> 00:19:45,200 many women who claim abduction 455 00:19:49,269 --> 00:19:47,479 experiences but not often by the men you 456 00:19:52,269 --> 00:19:49,279 know they claim you know maybe there's 457 00:19:54,369 --> 00:19:52,279 some sort of semen extraction but right 458 00:19:58,269 --> 00:19:54,379 you know not the act of actually holding 459 00:20:00,909 --> 00:19:58,279 or being in contact with a baby that 460 00:20:02,349 --> 00:20:00,919 might be like half yours you know so 461 00:20:04,629 --> 00:20:02,359 woody what do you make of that whole 462 00:20:06,639 --> 00:20:04,639 claim by David that there was some sort 463 00:20:08,769 --> 00:20:06,649 of hybridization program that seems to 464 00:20:12,489 --> 00:20:08,779 be going on just stepping back a little 465 00:20:15,279 --> 00:20:12,499 the you know in an abduction story just 466 00:20:18,399 --> 00:20:15,289 the idea that someone is abducted is is 467 00:20:21,159 --> 00:20:18,409 a lone sort of like a difficult leap you 468 00:20:25,539 --> 00:20:21,169 know to believe and and to to sort of 469 00:20:29,919 --> 00:20:25,549 suspend belief over and then adding that 470 00:20:31,749 --> 00:20:29,929 you then procreated many times and and 471 00:20:34,180 --> 00:20:31,759 created many babies with them is a whole 472 00:20:37,629 --> 00:20:34,190 other level of belief so that took a lot 473 00:20:39,940 --> 00:20:37,639 of like thinking over for me just to to 474 00:20:41,979 --> 00:20:39,950 be able to like accept that and I think 475 00:20:43,779 --> 00:20:41,989 for David to like it when he first talks 476 00:20:45,849 --> 00:20:43,789 about like learning about that he was he 477 00:20:47,979 --> 00:20:45,859 was you know in shock and and couldn't 478 00:20:51,190 --> 00:20:47,989 couldn't believe it again I'll go back 479 00:20:53,739 --> 00:20:51,200 to Jeffrey crippled he says you know the 480 00:20:56,349 --> 00:20:53,749 idea of hybridity is it's not so strange 481 00:20:58,359 --> 00:20:56,359 in the historical record you know just 482 00:20:59,829 --> 00:20:58,369 going back thousands of years with with 483 00:21:02,950 --> 00:20:59,839 the beliefs of the Greeks and Greek 484 00:21:05,619 --> 00:21:02,960 mythology gods and you know beings from 485 00:21:08,690 --> 00:21:05,629 the sky intermingling and and and 486 00:21:11,210 --> 00:21:08,700 breeding with humans was like a normal 487 00:21:14,630 --> 00:21:11,220 part of the mythology so it's not it's 488 00:21:16,730 --> 00:21:14,640 not without precedence but getting into 489 00:21:18,050 --> 00:21:16,740 more of the why at least what David 490 00:21:21,650 --> 00:21:18,060 thinks he never was able to get an 491 00:21:24,590 --> 00:21:21,660 answer is that you know they lost the 492 00:21:28,700 --> 00:21:24,600 ability somehow or maybe never had the 493 00:21:32,750 --> 00:21:28,710 ability to procreate like we do and they 494 00:21:35,930 --> 00:21:32,760 need a human in some way man or woman to 495 00:21:38,150 --> 00:21:35,940 to make this happen and so it wasn't 496 00:21:40,250 --> 00:21:38,160 like the act of sex at all that was what 497 00:21:44,690 --> 00:21:40,260 was really necessary it was more getting 498 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:44,700 his his like sperm and then using that 499 00:21:49,670 --> 00:21:47,610 to hybridize and make these make these 500 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:49,680 children and it was he noticed that as 501 00:21:55,460 --> 00:21:52,170 they grew up over time they looked more 502 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:55,470 and more human still not quite 100% 503 00:22:00,020 --> 00:21:57,410 human like they still had the odd eyes 504 00:22:02,210 --> 00:22:00,030 but he never saw them here he only saw 505 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:02,220 them when he was there with them either 506 00:22:06,470 --> 00:22:04,530 like on a ship or or somewhere else so I 507 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:06,480 don't know if it what the whole point of 508 00:22:11,780 --> 00:22:10,050 the if it's a program if it's for them 509 00:22:14,180 --> 00:22:11,790 to come here or if it's just to keep 510 00:22:17,420 --> 00:22:14,190 their their own race going it's 511 00:22:20,090 --> 00:22:17,430 difficult to muse on yeah yeah to be 512 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:20,100 determined I guess well the painting 513 00:22:23,540 --> 00:22:21,570 spread I want to get back to that for a 514 00:22:26,180 --> 00:22:23,550 second because you were able to use 515 00:22:28,610 --> 00:22:26,190 these throughout the film to sort of you 516 00:22:30,770 --> 00:22:28,620 know propel his story to to elevate it 517 00:22:33,110 --> 00:22:30,780 in a way I guess which is in essence 518 00:22:35,990 --> 00:22:33,120 what he's trying to do as well to kind 519 00:22:39,110 --> 00:22:36,000 of get it out there without using words 520 00:22:41,570 --> 00:22:39,120 so much did you always plan you know 521 00:22:43,820 --> 00:22:41,580 when when you decided yes I want to tell 522 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:43,830 his story did you did you know you were 523 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:45,810 going to sort of use those paintings as 524 00:22:50,030 --> 00:22:47,730 a technique to tell the story throughout 525 00:22:52,190 --> 00:22:50,040 yeah definitely and without them I 526 00:22:55,070 --> 00:22:52,200 probably wouldn't have made the film I 527 00:22:57,890 --> 00:22:55,080 did it experiment very early on with 528 00:22:59,540 --> 00:22:57,900 with the idea of maybe recreating the 529 00:23:02,510 --> 00:22:59,550 experiences that were in the paintings 530 00:23:05,420 --> 00:23:02,520 like the key ones live-action and like I 531 00:23:08,180 --> 00:23:05,430 did a test of that and I soon realized 532 00:23:11,060 --> 00:23:08,190 like what's the point one it it excused 533 00:23:13,010 --> 00:23:11,070 the documentary and into a place I don't 534 00:23:15,620 --> 00:23:13,020 really want it to go in that you know 535 00:23:17,750 --> 00:23:15,630 it's already such a fantastical story 536 00:23:20,790 --> 00:23:17,760 and and by showing it I think it pushes 537 00:23:22,590 --> 00:23:20,800 it over the top and to 538 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:22,600 I already have the paintings and the 539 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:25,330 paintings are are sort of incredible in 540 00:23:31,620 --> 00:23:28,810 their own right so why not just use them 541 00:23:33,990 --> 00:23:31,630 as you know as the gift that they are 542 00:23:36,180 --> 00:23:34,000 and and it also helps just being on a 543 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:36,190 low budget having that as a storytelling 544 00:23:39,210 --> 00:23:37,690 device as opposed to like recreating 545 00:23:40,650 --> 00:23:39,220 everything and I think you know you we 546 00:23:42,450 --> 00:23:40,660 see a lot of recreations and without a 547 00:23:45,390 --> 00:23:42,460 lot of resources they end up looking 548 00:23:48,360 --> 00:23:45,400 mostly very cheesy and that's the last 549 00:23:50,580 --> 00:23:48,370 thing I wanted for this film so instead 550 00:23:52,350 --> 00:23:50,590 just was able to like shoot the 551 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:52,360 paintings in an interesting way like 552 00:23:58,470 --> 00:23:56,890 very macro with moves and also we did an 553 00:24:01,170 --> 00:23:58,480 interesting technique where I hired this 554 00:24:03,180 --> 00:24:01,180 guy in Eastern Europe to he painted 555 00:24:05,790 --> 00:24:03,190 depth mats he's like one of the only 556 00:24:08,130 --> 00:24:05,800 people I think that does this he paints 557 00:24:11,220 --> 00:24:08,140 these grayscale almost like maps of the 558 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:11,230 paintings that that show their depth and 559 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:14,770 then I can plug that into After Effects 560 00:24:18,870 --> 00:24:16,930 and put really subtle like camera moves 561 00:24:20,670 --> 00:24:18,880 and other effects on them that they're 562 00:24:22,470 --> 00:24:20,680 not over-the-top but they they really 563 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:22,480 add to the immersion and that sort of 564 00:24:26,940 --> 00:24:25,090 unsettling feeling of the of the works 565 00:24:28,380 --> 00:24:26,950 oh absolutely yeah I mean that was one 566 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:28,390 of the first things I noticed I'm like 567 00:24:33,450 --> 00:24:30,250 I'm so happy he didn't just do like a 568 00:24:36,630 --> 00:24:33,460 flat aerial view and the paintings it 569 00:24:38,340 --> 00:24:36,640 did it was just enough I think to make 570 00:24:40,170 --> 00:24:38,350 it come to life and I think that was 571 00:24:42,060 --> 00:24:40,180 really a really interesting technique 572 00:24:44,670 --> 00:24:42,070 I'm so happy he decided to do that and 573 00:24:47,340 --> 00:24:44,680 again it helped enhance the story and 574 00:24:49,290 --> 00:24:47,350 one of those paintings Brad was that 575 00:24:51,780 --> 00:24:49,300 really caught my attention was that of 576 00:24:53,550 --> 00:24:51,790 an owl now going back to sort of 577 00:24:55,350 --> 00:24:53,560 abduction Lord I'd love to get your 578 00:24:58,230 --> 00:24:55,360 thoughts on this many experiences 579 00:25:00,870 --> 00:24:58,240 claimed to have seen owls prior to or 580 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:00,880 after a contact experience and we see 581 00:25:05,820 --> 00:25:03,490 this throughout movies throughout the 582 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:05,830 UFO abduction literature is this 583 00:25:10,500 --> 00:25:08,410 something you've ever explored at all in 584 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:10,510 your research into the abduction 585 00:25:15,090 --> 00:25:12,490 phenomenon in making this film the whole 586 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:15,100 idea of the owl being present not 587 00:25:20,850 --> 00:25:17,770 specifically the owl but more like the 588 00:25:23,190 --> 00:25:20,860 eyes of the owl and and that was 589 00:25:24,870 --> 00:25:23,200 something that David David in retrospect 590 00:25:27,360 --> 00:25:24,880 was thinking like when he thought he saw 591 00:25:29,130 --> 00:25:27,370 that owl in the tree then started to 592 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:29,140 think that the eyes looked exactly like 593 00:25:34,380 --> 00:25:31,930 that of the hairy the little hairy guy 594 00:25:36,810 --> 00:25:34,390 yeah and that maybe it wasn't an owl 595 00:25:39,330 --> 00:25:36,820 maybe it was that being or maybe the 596 00:25:41,550 --> 00:25:39,340 being that he saw you know wasn't a 597 00:25:43,500 --> 00:25:41,560 little hairy guy but was was an owl so 598 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:43,510 that yeah I hadn't thought too much on 599 00:25:48,390 --> 00:25:45,970 it just like it's such a pervasive image 600 00:25:50,700 --> 00:25:48,400 as well like in David Lynch's work like 601 00:25:52,980 --> 00:25:50,710 with Twin Peaks the owl is always sort 602 00:25:55,650 --> 00:25:52,990 of there when something very strange is 603 00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:55,660 gonna happen like it's something that 604 00:26:00,870 --> 00:25:57,610 that ushers in these sort of 605 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:00,880 multi-dimensional experiences yeah it's 606 00:26:05,700 --> 00:26:03,610 an interesting you know sort of subtopic 607 00:26:08,340 --> 00:26:05,710 that I think is sort of made its way 608 00:26:10,260 --> 00:26:08,350 into the abduction phenomenon or lore 609 00:26:11,730 --> 00:26:10,270 whatever you want to make of it it is 610 00:26:14,430 --> 00:26:11,740 interesting the whole idea of screen 611 00:26:18,210 --> 00:26:14,440 memories to like maybe this what I used 612 00:26:20,940 --> 00:26:18,220 to like give us something relatable yeah 613 00:26:23,970 --> 00:26:20,950 yeah I don't know maybe that it's that I 614 00:26:26,790 --> 00:26:23,980 think I think it's it's really like eyes 615 00:26:28,380 --> 00:26:26,800 that that seems a common denominator of 616 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:28,390 a lot of these experiences like the 617 00:26:34,050 --> 00:26:31,210 lasting impression is is of eyes and it 618 00:26:35,490 --> 00:26:34,060 may be that the screen memory is you 619 00:26:37,830 --> 00:26:35,500 know the closest thing that we can think 620 00:26:40,770 --> 00:26:37,840 of a sort of glowing creepy eyes in the 621 00:26:43,190 --> 00:26:40,780 dark is an owl yeah I think you're right 622 00:26:46,050 --> 00:26:43,200 on that it's definitely like the most 623 00:26:48,450 --> 00:26:46,060 human connection we can make I think for 624 00:26:50,430 --> 00:26:48,460 sure in terms of humans bread the people 625 00:26:52,590 --> 00:26:50,440 in David's life you know whether it's 626 00:26:55,140 --> 00:26:52,600 just like a neighbor a co-worker a 627 00:26:57,120 --> 00:26:55,150 friend a lot of them a majority of them 628 00:26:59,970 --> 00:26:57,130 they do believe him just because like 629 00:27:02,370 --> 00:26:59,980 you said he's such a genuine person and 630 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:02,380 actually pretty down-to-earth did you 631 00:27:08,730 --> 00:27:05,650 find anyone that didn't believe him that 632 00:27:11,670 --> 00:27:08,740 you were able to get on film no this was 633 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:11,680 the problem like I thought I would like 634 00:27:16,170 --> 00:27:13,930 I thought his boss for example who's 635 00:27:18,810 --> 00:27:16,180 this real salt of the earth like Italian 636 00:27:20,190 --> 00:27:18,820 immigrant who owns a deli I thought he'd 637 00:27:22,380 --> 00:27:20,200 be like you know I like David but this 638 00:27:24,750 --> 00:27:22,390 alien abduction stuff is wacky but 639 00:27:27,150 --> 00:27:24,760 instead it was like no you know I 640 00:27:27,510 --> 00:27:27,160 because I know David and the type of guy 641 00:27:30,930 --> 00:27:27,520 he is 642 00:27:33,180 --> 00:27:30,940 I believe him and I might not have seen 643 00:27:36,210 --> 00:27:33,190 or had an experience with aliens but I 644 00:27:38,790 --> 00:27:36,220 have no reason to to disbelieve David or 645 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:38,800 to judge him or be cynical about it and 646 00:27:43,710 --> 00:27:41,530 then same with his neighbor who's known 647 00:27:45,180 --> 00:27:43,720 him for thirty years and didn't know 648 00:27:46,740 --> 00:27:45,190 about the abduction experiences when I 649 00:27:47,350 --> 00:27:46,750 told him about it he was like well yeah 650 00:27:49,930 --> 00:27:47,360 you know 651 00:27:51,430 --> 00:27:49,940 again like it's it's even less likely 652 00:27:53,410 --> 00:27:51,440 that we're completely alone on the 653 00:27:55,780 --> 00:27:53,420 universe who knows if they're visiting 654 00:27:57,790 --> 00:27:55,790 or not but again I like I've known David 655 00:28:00,700 --> 00:27:57,800 for thirty years so and he's the nicest 656 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:00,710 guy that I've ever met so I'm not gonna 657 00:28:04,750 --> 00:28:03,410 disbelieve him out of hand and on and on 658 00:28:07,150 --> 00:28:04,760 and same with Jeffrey [\h__\h] who is 659 00:28:09,250 --> 00:28:07,160 this like pretty much world renowned 660 00:28:11,050 --> 00:28:09,260 expert in his field of comparative 661 00:28:14,890 --> 00:28:11,060 religious studies and and he believes 662 00:28:16,690 --> 00:28:14,900 David and the one person that I'm pretty 663 00:28:17,890 --> 00:28:16,700 sure what would have been the dissenting 664 00:28:19,180 --> 00:28:17,900 voice and would have been the most 665 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:19,190 important one to get would have been as 666 00:28:23,140 --> 00:28:21,290 ex-wife who whom and I think you know 667 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:23,150 they got divorced over this this whole 668 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:27,170 subject but she just did not with all of 669 00:28:31,390 --> 00:28:29,930 her heart did not want to appear on film 670 00:28:33,130 --> 00:28:31,400 and I tried I asked her you know 671 00:28:35,110 --> 00:28:33,140 separately ten times in every different 672 00:28:37,660 --> 00:28:35,120 way I could and even though she's a 673 00:28:38,710 --> 00:28:37,670 super nice lady and and you know we we 674 00:28:41,230 --> 00:28:38,720 got along really well 675 00:28:43,780 --> 00:28:41,240 outside of filming she just you know I 676 00:28:45,070 --> 00:28:43,790 could not convince her to get on film I 677 00:28:47,500 --> 00:28:45,080 think she just did not want it's too 678 00:28:50,140 --> 00:28:47,510 painful for her to talk about and she 679 00:28:52,660 --> 00:28:50,150 didn't want to I feed into this story 680 00:28:54,820 --> 00:28:52,670 anymore than then they already had yeah 681 00:28:57,070 --> 00:28:54,830 I get them and I mean I've spoken to 682 00:28:59,620 --> 00:28:57,080 many experiencers who like you know 683 00:29:01,570 --> 00:28:59,630 their their significant other is you 684 00:29:03,340 --> 00:29:01,580 know supportive and is there for them 685 00:29:05,350 --> 00:29:03,350 but when it comes to actually like 686 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:05,360 broadcasting it out to the world that's 687 00:29:10,030 --> 00:29:07,970 a whole other can of worms that a lot of 688 00:29:11,980 --> 00:29:10,040 people don't want to get you know yeah 689 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:11,990 and and also you know further on the 690 00:29:15,670 --> 00:29:13,970 disbelieving scale I feel like there's 691 00:29:17,350 --> 00:29:15,680 not much of a point I mean this is your 692 00:29:19,300 --> 00:29:17,360 average person on the street is gonna be 693 00:29:20,710 --> 00:29:19,310 the one that's like dudes crazy you know 694 00:29:22,780 --> 00:29:20,720 you can just tell from like YouTube 695 00:29:25,210 --> 00:29:22,790 comments and other things that's the 696 00:29:26,890 --> 00:29:25,220 general populace and and those are the 697 00:29:28,660 --> 00:29:26,900 you know a lot of the people watching 698 00:29:30,730 --> 00:29:28,670 the film so the the I think it's the 699 00:29:34,290 --> 00:29:30,740 audience that's the skeptic rightfully 700 00:29:36,610 --> 00:29:34,300 so and in a in a situation like this and 701 00:29:39,580 --> 00:29:36,620 sure like it could have gotten like a 702 00:29:42,910 --> 00:29:39,590 psychologist or sociologists to talk 703 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:42,920 about how it's linked to trauma and or 704 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:45,050 it's linked to personality disorder or 705 00:29:49,870 --> 00:29:46,970 seizures but none of them actually know 706 00:29:52,780 --> 00:29:49,880 David or you know he's not a patient of 707 00:29:54,490 --> 00:29:52,790 there so that is is I don't think the 708 00:29:56,710 --> 00:29:54,500 most responsible thing either right 709 00:29:58,780 --> 00:29:56,720 right it's it's just a little too 710 00:29:59,880 --> 00:29:58,790 disconnected from the scary thing for 711 00:30:03,010 --> 00:29:59,890 sure 712 00:30:04,270 --> 00:30:03,020 well you were able to get his son on 713 00:30:06,790 --> 00:30:04,280 film which I thought was really 714 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:06,800 interesting his son Michael what what 715 00:30:10,450 --> 00:30:09,050 were his thoughts on all of this about 716 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:10,460 what his father was bringing forward 717 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:13,370 yeah Mike Michael was a big surprise too 718 00:30:18,070 --> 00:30:16,730 so like I sat him down and I started 719 00:30:19,510 --> 00:30:18,080 asking like you know what was your 720 00:30:21,730 --> 00:30:19,520 childhood lacking he's like I was you 721 00:30:22,510 --> 00:30:21,740 know a normal childhood nothing out of 722 00:30:24,310 --> 00:30:22,520 the ordinary 723 00:30:26,110 --> 00:30:24,320 I'm like really no nothing out of the 724 00:30:28,270 --> 00:30:26,120 ordinary and your childhood compared to 725 00:30:30,220 --> 00:30:28,280 other of your friends and you had to 726 00:30:31,810 --> 00:30:30,230 really think about it and it's like what 727 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:31,820 about you know the fact that your father 728 00:30:35,260 --> 00:30:33,410 was abducted baylin's he was like oh 729 00:30:36,330 --> 00:30:35,270 yeah that yeah I guess that's a little 730 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:36,340 out of the ordinary 731 00:30:41,220 --> 00:30:39,050 and and that was how it sort of went 732 00:30:44,050 --> 00:30:41,230 like for him it was just like this 733 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:44,060 matter-of-fact part of his life and 734 00:30:48,370 --> 00:30:45,770 upbringing like his dad made these weird 735 00:30:51,100 --> 00:30:48,380 paintings and talked about being 736 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:51,110 abducted but he never he never passed 737 00:30:56,020 --> 00:30:53,330 judgment and he just believed him 738 00:30:57,930 --> 00:30:56,030 without any sort of you know criticism 739 00:31:00,850 --> 00:30:57,940 and he never I don't think had an 740 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:00,860 experience as support or evidence but he 741 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:02,690 just was like what I don't have a reason 742 00:31:06,730 --> 00:31:04,370 not to believe my dad and I think David 743 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:06,740 sort of shielded him from the more 744 00:31:10,690 --> 00:31:09,170 explicit paintings until he was older 745 00:31:12,310 --> 00:31:10,700 and like in the film he said Michael 746 00:31:13,660 --> 00:31:12,320 would say like dad who are who are these 747 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:13,670 people your painting is like oh these 748 00:31:17,020 --> 00:31:15,290 are just you know some people that I 749 00:31:19,390 --> 00:31:17,030 know from somewhere far away and I think 750 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:19,400 that was a pretty good way to lightly 751 00:31:25,300 --> 00:31:22,610 introduce his son to it yeah absolutely 752 00:31:28,330 --> 00:31:25,310 god I can't even imagine like that just 753 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:28,340 becoming like a normal thing throughout 754 00:31:32,290 --> 00:31:30,290 your adolescence is yeah my dad's an 755 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:32,300 alien abductee yeah yes friends are from 756 00:31:37,930 --> 00:31:35,810 France or something yeah it's very well 757 00:31:39,550 --> 00:31:37,940 you know we've mentioned him a lot 758 00:31:41,650 --> 00:31:39,560 throughout this interview so far Brad 759 00:31:44,530 --> 00:31:41,660 the man of the hour Jeffrey cry field 760 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:44,540 now this dude is like a superhero to a 761 00:31:51,220 --> 00:31:48,170 lot of us I guess you know younger maybe 762 00:31:52,780 --> 00:31:51,230 more progressive UFO researchers because 763 00:31:55,420 --> 00:31:52,790 he looks at it from a completely 764 00:31:58,720 --> 00:31:55,430 different angle and I think it's one 765 00:32:01,480 --> 00:31:58,730 that is essential necessary and may give 766 00:32:03,490 --> 00:32:01,490 us you know a good clue on what we might 767 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:03,500 be dealing with so for those who don't 768 00:32:07,270 --> 00:32:04,970 know who Jeffrey is could you sort of 769 00:32:09,220 --> 00:32:07,280 give us a little background on who this 770 00:32:11,770 --> 00:32:09,230 guy is and how you were able to get him 771 00:32:12,830 --> 00:32:11,780 on camera which is really rare yeah so 772 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:12,840 he's he's a 773 00:32:17,180 --> 00:32:14,730 professor of comparative religious 774 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:17,190 studies at Rice University in Houston 775 00:32:24,110 --> 00:32:20,370 which is like a very sort of exclusive 776 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:24,120 liberal arts college and its faculty is 777 00:32:29,239 --> 00:32:26,370 well-known throughout the world so he's 778 00:32:32,269 --> 00:32:29,249 he's a very well respected academic he 779 00:32:34,399 --> 00:32:32,279 focuses on paranormal phenomena and 780 00:32:36,590 --> 00:32:34,409 people who have have experienced 781 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:36,600 paranormal phenomena and tries instead 782 00:32:40,580 --> 00:32:38,610 of dismissing them out of hand as crazy 783 00:32:43,450 --> 00:32:40,590 or having a psychological or brain 784 00:32:46,369 --> 00:32:43,460 chemistry disorder tries to put it in a 785 00:32:49,100 --> 00:32:46,379 historical context and what he found was 786 00:32:51,289 --> 00:32:49,110 you know doing what academics do by 787 00:32:54,019 --> 00:32:51,299 going back into the literature over 788 00:32:55,639 --> 00:32:54,029 thousands of years found that alien 789 00:32:58,100 --> 00:32:55,649 abduction experiences for the most part 790 00:33:00,710 --> 00:32:58,110 not all of them they share a lot in 791 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:00,720 common with mystical experiences and 792 00:33:04,999 --> 00:33:02,970 religious experiences and you know 793 00:33:08,109 --> 00:33:05,009 psychedelic experiences and that that 794 00:33:11,149 --> 00:33:08,119 maybe these things are the same thing so 795 00:33:14,989 --> 00:33:11,159 2,000 years ago you know someone in 796 00:33:17,269 --> 00:33:14,999 Greece or Mesopotamia having a an 797 00:33:20,539 --> 00:33:17,279 experience that involved the you know 798 00:33:23,859 --> 00:33:20,549 the gods or spirits or someone in the 799 00:33:27,889 --> 00:33:23,869 1500s having you know visions of 800 00:33:30,649 --> 00:33:27,899 apostles and angels and and Jesus and 801 00:33:33,379 --> 00:33:30,659 then someone in our times having visions 802 00:33:35,749 --> 00:33:33,389 of these odd looking aliens that these 803 00:33:37,700 --> 00:33:35,759 are the same things and that they're 804 00:33:39,350 --> 00:33:37,710 real experiences that we we don't 805 00:33:41,570 --> 00:33:39,360 understand and don't know what they are 806 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:41,580 but we just because of how our brains 807 00:33:46,789 --> 00:33:44,730 work we then fill in the holes and fill 808 00:33:48,470 --> 00:33:46,799 in the gaps with what we know or what 809 00:33:51,230 --> 00:33:48,480 we've seen or what we've heard so that 810 00:33:52,789 --> 00:33:51,240 they get colored by popular culture so 811 00:33:55,100 --> 00:33:52,799 what he's saying is it's sort of like 812 00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:55,110 the metaphor is like light through 813 00:33:58,879 --> 00:33:57,210 stained glass so we see all these 814 00:34:01,430 --> 00:33:58,889 beautiful colors and patterns and 815 00:34:03,619 --> 00:34:01,440 symbols of the stained glass but that 816 00:34:05,899 --> 00:34:03,629 there's actually a light shining through 817 00:34:08,389 --> 00:34:05,909 it and that light is the experience and 818 00:34:10,490 --> 00:34:08,399 what we're seeing is is what's being 819 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:10,500 filtered through all manner of things 820 00:34:14,210 --> 00:34:12,450 with our brain and in the world that 821 00:34:17,149 --> 00:34:14,220 that we live in so that's his that's his 822 00:34:19,190 --> 00:34:17,159 sort of theory in a nutshell so he and 823 00:34:20,720 --> 00:34:19,200 he's not saying that aliens don't exist 824 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:20,730 and that aliens aren't necessarily even 825 00:34:24,859 --> 00:34:22,770 coming here but that he believes that 826 00:34:25,780 --> 00:34:24,869 that abduction phenomena isn't this 827 00:34:28,270 --> 00:34:25,790 literal 828 00:34:31,150 --> 00:34:28,280 story of beings that are actually 829 00:34:33,070 --> 00:34:31,160 abducting and experimenting on people he 830 00:34:36,250 --> 00:34:33,080 thinks that it's it's something sort of 831 00:34:38,950 --> 00:34:36,260 much more universal and non-literal yeah 832 00:34:42,190 --> 00:34:38,960 than that yeah it's very interesting and 833 00:34:45,970 --> 00:34:42,200 I mean he even you know in within all of 834 00:34:47,860 --> 00:34:45,980 that he admits that he had almost like a 835 00:34:49,720 --> 00:34:47,870 mystical experience himself am I correct 836 00:34:51,850 --> 00:34:49,730 in that yeah exactly and what's 837 00:34:53,770 --> 00:34:51,860 interesting again is it took the form it 838 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:53,780 was very much like what you might call 839 00:34:58,480 --> 00:34:55,610 an abduction experience but it took the 840 00:35:00,760 --> 00:34:58,490 form of more like Hindu mythology and 841 00:35:04,570 --> 00:35:00,770 he's not he's not Indian or Hindu but 842 00:35:06,670 --> 00:35:04,580 hit that was his his focus academic 843 00:35:09,790 --> 00:35:06,680 focus at that time so he wrote a book 844 00:35:12,610 --> 00:35:09,800 about sort of the the erotic content of 845 00:35:16,720 --> 00:35:12,620 Hindu mythology and it actually got him 846 00:35:20,410 --> 00:35:16,730 banned from India harassed by by Indian 847 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:20,420 Secret Service four years later but so 848 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:23,330 his his contact if his paranormal 849 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:25,130 experience was had all this sort of like 850 00:35:31,450 --> 00:35:27,290 there she no she I think Kali was in it 851 00:35:35,100 --> 00:35:31,460 or Shiva and it had it had this sort of 852 00:35:37,660 --> 00:35:35,110 imagery but if you swapped in Gray's and 853 00:35:40,570 --> 00:35:37,670 alien spaceships it would have been you 854 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:40,580 know exactly you're not your typical UFO 855 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:42,410 abduction experience yeah it was 856 00:35:45,910 --> 00:35:44,090 extremely interesting you know 857 00:35:47,350 --> 00:35:45,920 especially since he's he's willing to 858 00:35:49,810 --> 00:35:47,360 come forward and talk about this having 859 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:49,820 had his own personal experience somehow 860 00:35:54,340 --> 00:35:52,370 with it filling in those gaps I think 861 00:35:57,100 --> 00:35:54,350 that's essential and you know like you 862 00:35:59,620 --> 00:35:57,110 said like sort of what we put our own 863 00:36:00,940 --> 00:35:59,630 lens on what the experience might be so 864 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:00,950 many people think it might have been a 865 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:03,410 religious experience or or this or that 866 00:36:08,380 --> 00:36:06,530 it's very fascinating this we can go 867 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:08,390 down so many different rabbit holes when 868 00:36:13,030 --> 00:36:10,490 it comes to these experiencers yeah and 869 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:13,040 it's it's in some circles it's blasphemy 870 00:36:19,990 --> 00:36:16,850 to say it's anything other than you know 871 00:36:22,180 --> 00:36:20,000 very specific sequence of events that 872 00:36:24,070 --> 00:36:22,190 happened you know that it's UFO from 873 00:36:26,230 --> 00:36:24,080 another world coming and doing these 874 00:36:28,690 --> 00:36:26,240 very specific things and and you can't 875 00:36:30,430 --> 00:36:28,700 see beyond that and then there's all of 876 00:36:32,860 --> 00:36:30,440 the events as of late that are being 877 00:36:36,700 --> 00:36:32,870 revealed with you know the the military 878 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:36,710 and observing these craft and and that 879 00:36:39,810 --> 00:36:38,090 could be like a totally different thing 880 00:36:41,610 --> 00:36:39,820 than alien abductee 881 00:36:44,220 --> 00:36:41,620 experiences they might not be related to 882 00:36:45,570 --> 00:36:44,230 these these crafter ships that they're 883 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:45,580 seeing which is a very you know this is 884 00:36:50,790 --> 00:36:48,610 a very like studied analytical real 885 00:36:53,100 --> 00:36:50,800 thing that's being showing up on like 886 00:36:54,690 --> 00:36:53,110 cameras and radar which is a little bit 887 00:36:57,330 --> 00:36:54,700 different than how people you know 888 00:37:00,000 --> 00:36:57,340 experienced alien abductions right yeah 889 00:37:02,790 --> 00:37:00,010 that's a really good point too well the 890 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:02,800 my favorite my absolute favorite part of 891 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:04,810 the film bred was when you you had a 892 00:37:09,270 --> 00:37:06,970 showing of David's work in New York City 893 00:37:11,910 --> 00:37:09,280 and this was the moment I'd sort of been 894 00:37:15,030 --> 00:37:11,920 waiting for in the film where we really 895 00:37:16,710 --> 00:37:15,040 got an outside eye on how his work was 896 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:16,720 perceived and then learning that this 897 00:37:22,740 --> 00:37:19,570 dude says he actually experienced these 898 00:37:24,810 --> 00:37:22,750 things so how did the how did this all 899 00:37:28,050 --> 00:37:24,820 come about the idea of doing an art 900 00:37:30,720 --> 00:37:28,060 showing for David I love this part of 901 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:30,730 the film yeah well it you know after we 902 00:37:35,310 --> 00:37:33,010 had a cut of the film earlier that 903 00:37:37,950 --> 00:37:35,320 didn't have that and it felt it felt 904 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:37,960 just too almost claustrophobic like we 905 00:37:41,220 --> 00:37:39,370 needed to get out of his house get out 906 00:37:43,740 --> 00:37:41,230 of his block where he lives in Hoboken 907 00:37:45,900 --> 00:37:43,750 and actually see him and interacting 908 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:45,910 with the outside world and and you know 909 00:37:50,430 --> 00:37:48,610 people other than his immediate sphere 910 00:37:52,710 --> 00:37:50,440 so we thought you know perfect would be 911 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:52,720 a gallery showing but you know no one 912 00:37:57,300 --> 00:37:54,850 knows him and and he hasn't really shown 913 00:37:59,640 --> 00:37:57,310 his work especially a solo show anywhere 914 00:38:01,530 --> 00:37:59,650 so we had to engineered the whole thing 915 00:38:04,590 --> 00:38:01,540 so you know we rented a gallery space 916 00:38:06,150 --> 00:38:04,600 and it came along with like a curator 917 00:38:07,980 --> 00:38:06,160 who helped us like pick the works and 918 00:38:09,180 --> 00:38:07,990 put them up on the wall and then just 919 00:38:11,910 --> 00:38:09,190 through word of mouth you know like 920 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:11,920 Facebook and and other things we we 921 00:38:16,260 --> 00:38:14,290 started to spread the word and it ended 922 00:38:17,370 --> 00:38:16,270 up you know being you know much more 923 00:38:19,410 --> 00:38:17,380 successful than we thought it was like 924 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:19,420 perfect amount of people we had a great 925 00:38:24,270 --> 00:38:21,850 cross-section you know young and old and 926 00:38:26,670 --> 00:38:24,280 it was just so so fascinating just for 927 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:26,680 us to see David juxtaposed with this old 928 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:28,090 guy I'm from the south 929 00:38:32,970 --> 00:38:30,370 juxtapose with these like young New York 930 00:38:35,490 --> 00:38:32,980 like hipsters basically our registers 931 00:38:37,860 --> 00:38:35,500 and just how they like totally embraced 932 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:37,870 him instead of like judging and 933 00:38:42,450 --> 00:38:40,450 snickering and and making fun they were 934 00:38:44,730 --> 00:38:42,460 all like wow this is so cool this is so 935 00:38:47,580 --> 00:38:44,740 weird and and interesting and they're 936 00:38:50,820 --> 00:38:47,590 almost like in awe of listening to him 937 00:38:53,319 --> 00:38:50,830 talk and tell his stories like like it 938 00:38:56,620 --> 00:38:53,329 was almost some like sort of like guru 939 00:38:58,870 --> 00:38:56,630 a type of experience is really really 940 00:39:00,670 --> 00:38:58,880 odd yeah absolutely man it's like the 941 00:39:03,309 --> 00:39:00,680 whole time he was sort of you know 942 00:39:05,620 --> 00:39:03,319 telling his story behind each painting I 943 00:39:07,749 --> 00:39:05,630 was like watching the person listening 944 00:39:10,089 --> 00:39:07,759 that's always fascinated me more like 945 00:39:12,430 --> 00:39:10,099 how they're gonna react to it I love 946 00:39:14,349 --> 00:39:12,440 those moments if like you know hearing 947 00:39:16,390 --> 00:39:14,359 something you're clearly not used to 948 00:39:18,519 --> 00:39:16,400 hearing and then being like oh my god he 949 00:39:20,410 --> 00:39:18,529 actually like believes this happened to 950 00:39:22,599 --> 00:39:20,420 him this isn't some dude like just 951 00:39:25,269 --> 00:39:22,609 creating a story to make a painting it's 952 00:39:28,690 --> 00:39:25,279 it's it's it's very interesting yeah 953 00:39:31,569 --> 00:39:28,700 this like jaws dropped yeah the whole 954 00:39:33,699 --> 00:39:31,579 galaxy gallery right you know there was 955 00:39:36,099 --> 00:39:33,709 even another like I guess quote a quote 956 00:39:38,519 --> 00:39:36,109 experience are there who said oh yeah 957 00:39:42,630 --> 00:39:38,529 I've been abducted but nothing like this 958 00:39:45,579 --> 00:39:42,640 that was a perfect moment of just like 959 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:45,589 normalizing this thing you know for the 960 00:39:48,069 --> 00:39:47,450 experiencers it's like an everyday 961 00:39:49,870 --> 00:39:48,079 occurrence 962 00:39:51,549 --> 00:39:49,880 yes it's profound and probably 963 00:39:53,199 --> 00:39:51,559 life-altering to them but like at the 964 00:39:55,089 --> 00:39:53,209 same time it's like they have their own 965 00:39:56,769 --> 00:39:55,099 community and it's like oh yeah I was 966 00:40:00,339 --> 00:39:56,779 taken last week how about you blah blah 967 00:40:03,519 --> 00:40:00,349 blah right it's fascinating in terms of 968 00:40:06,759 --> 00:40:03,529 that like in the years of filming this 969 00:40:09,089 --> 00:40:06,769 in getting to know David and you know 970 00:40:12,249 --> 00:40:09,099 I'm sure doors are opened in your own 971 00:40:16,539 --> 00:40:12,259 mind of like what you think of all this 972 00:40:18,189 --> 00:40:16,549 do you believe David's story uh I think 973 00:40:20,859 --> 00:40:18,199 it's to two questions really it's like 974 00:40:22,930 --> 00:40:20,869 one is do I believe David and that's a 975 00:40:25,059 --> 00:40:22,940 yes because I don't think he's he's 976 00:40:28,349 --> 00:40:25,069 making anything up at all he's 977 00:40:30,579 --> 00:40:28,359 describing experiences that that he 978 00:40:34,509 --> 00:40:30,589 experienced but then the next question 979 00:40:37,930 --> 00:40:34,519 is do I believe aliens or other beings 980 00:40:41,019 --> 00:40:37,940 from maybe other dimensions are visiting 981 00:40:43,479 --> 00:40:41,029 earth and taking people and having sex 982 00:40:46,859 --> 00:40:43,489 with them and in making hybrid children 983 00:40:49,689 --> 00:40:46,869 with them and so that is I can't say yes 984 00:40:51,819 --> 00:40:49,699 because that's a really big leap right 985 00:40:53,709 --> 00:40:51,829 from from believing David or then 986 00:40:56,289 --> 00:40:53,719 believing this sequence of events that 987 00:40:59,259 --> 00:40:56,299 happening but I also you know just as 988 00:41:01,749 --> 00:40:59,269 just as fervently will say that I don't 989 00:41:04,010 --> 00:41:01,759 disbelieve it because they also know I 990 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:04,020 have no evidence that it's not happening 991 00:41:08,900 --> 00:41:07,530 as well and and the evidence we do have 992 00:41:10,460 --> 00:41:08,910 that it's happening is that a lot of 993 00:41:12,350 --> 00:41:10,470 people talk about having these 994 00:41:14,030 --> 00:41:12,360 experiences so that something is is 995 00:41:15,380 --> 00:41:14,040 happening so I'll say that I believe 996 00:41:17,540 --> 00:41:15,390 David and I believe that something 997 00:41:20,690 --> 00:41:17,550 really odd has been happening for a long 998 00:41:23,450 --> 00:41:20,700 time that we don't understand and may 999 00:41:25,490 --> 00:41:23,460 not be as as straightforward as these 1000 00:41:27,140 --> 00:41:25,500 are people from another place coming 1001 00:41:29,930 --> 00:41:27,150 down and experience experimenting on us 1002 00:41:31,820 --> 00:41:29,940 you know maybe it's maybe it's some 1003 00:41:33,740 --> 00:41:31,830 interdimensional thing that like Jacques 1004 00:41:36,140 --> 00:41:33,750 Vallee and others have talked about 1005 00:41:38,750 --> 00:41:36,150 maybe that's more believable or not I 1006 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:38,760 don't know but I just can't I I can't 1007 00:41:44,300 --> 00:41:42,330 like call myself a believer just because 1008 00:41:46,820 --> 00:41:44,310 you know I don't I don't have the 1009 00:41:49,340 --> 00:41:46,830 answers to should give myself over to 1010 00:41:51,590 --> 00:41:49,350 that yeah yeah I completely agree I mean 1011 00:41:53,750 --> 00:41:51,600 I watched it a second time with my 1012 00:41:56,180 --> 00:41:53,760 girlfriend and at the end she said do 1013 00:41:59,360 --> 00:41:56,190 you believe him and you know my answer 1014 00:42:00,980 --> 00:41:59,370 in with your film and with any person 1015 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:00,990 I've ever interviewed about this topic 1016 00:42:05,450 --> 00:42:03,570 is you know I wasn't there I think 1017 00:42:08,090 --> 00:42:05,460 that's kind of where I leave it I was 1018 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:08,100 not there I cannot say no matter how 1019 00:42:12,350 --> 00:42:10,170 much evidence or lack of evidence there 1020 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:12,360 is I was not there in the room when that 1021 00:42:17,900 --> 00:42:15,930 happened so yeah well how is the overall 1022 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:17,910 response been bred since the phone came 1023 00:42:21,950 --> 00:42:20,010 out what do viewers think about it I 1024 00:42:24,890 --> 00:42:21,960 know it's screened in many different 1025 00:42:26,180 --> 00:42:24,900 cities it's on every streaming service 1026 00:42:28,130 --> 00:42:26,190 you can possibly think of which is 1027 00:42:29,510 --> 00:42:28,140 awesome like what what what do you 1028 00:42:31,700 --> 00:42:29,520 gather about what people are saying 1029 00:42:33,620 --> 00:42:31,710 about the film it's been it's been great 1030 00:42:36,140 --> 00:42:33,630 so far overall it's been really great 1031 00:42:38,870 --> 00:42:36,150 and it was it's so neat like being a 1032 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:38,880 filmmaker and being able to attend film 1033 00:42:43,490 --> 00:42:40,410 festival screenings like around the 1034 00:42:47,630 --> 00:42:43,500 country because each each city has its 1035 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:47,640 own culture and and vibe and so each 1036 00:42:52,190 --> 00:42:49,170 audience would react completely 1037 00:42:54,590 --> 00:42:52,200 differently like in Austin Texas that a 1038 00:42:56,300 --> 00:42:54,600 genre film festival like people are so 1039 00:42:58,430 --> 00:42:56,310 into it and you know they love the 1040 00:42:59,780 --> 00:42:58,440 paintings in the parts about VHS and 1041 00:43:03,530 --> 00:42:59,790 they're having like a great time and 1042 00:43:06,770 --> 00:43:03,540 then in a place like Utah it's like you 1043 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:06,780 know like they still like it but it's 1044 00:43:11,240 --> 00:43:08,850 it's they're really weirded out and 1045 00:43:12,860 --> 00:43:11,250 creeped out like oh my gosh especially 1046 00:43:15,230 --> 00:43:12,870 the sexual content and then in a place 1047 00:43:17,660 --> 00:43:15,240 like Miami they're more sort of like 1048 00:43:19,039 --> 00:43:17,670 laughing at David like oh look 1049 00:43:22,250 --> 00:43:19,049 this is a little bit of like a freak 1050 00:43:24,380 --> 00:43:22,260 show so everywhere is was was totally 1051 00:43:26,150 --> 00:43:24,390 different but what was universal is that 1052 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:26,160 people would come up afterwards and say 1053 00:43:29,780 --> 00:43:27,690 you know I came into this thinking I 1054 00:43:32,870 --> 00:43:29,790 would watch like a film about like a 1055 00:43:35,329 --> 00:43:32,880 wacky crazy guy and I you know that 1056 00:43:35,839 --> 00:43:35,339 would be it but by the end I don't know 1057 00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:35,849 anymore 1058 00:43:39,530 --> 00:43:38,010 and I actually against all my like 1059 00:43:42,170 --> 00:43:39,540 better judgment I want to believe this 1060 00:43:45,289 --> 00:43:42,180 guy because he he's a believable guy and 1061 00:43:47,089 --> 00:43:45,299 there's you know there's there's little 1062 00:43:49,039 --> 00:43:47,099 evidence to think that he would make any 1063 00:43:51,319 --> 00:43:49,049 of this up so that and that's what all I 1064 00:43:53,359 --> 00:43:51,329 hope for all I hope was that people 1065 00:43:55,849 --> 00:43:53,369 would suspend their judgement and start 1066 00:43:58,880 --> 00:43:55,859 to think that you know they're something 1067 00:44:00,530 --> 00:43:58,890 that can be gained from not dismissing 1068 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:00,540 these stories out of hand and maybe it's 1069 00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:02,210 as simple as like learning more about us 1070 00:44:09,650 --> 00:44:06,690 about humans and how we work and and on 1071 00:44:11,900 --> 00:44:09,660 the far end it you know maybe there are 1072 00:44:13,690 --> 00:44:11,910 people or beings that are visiting us 1073 00:44:16,039 --> 00:44:13,700 from afar so and we even had people that 1074 00:44:18,380 --> 00:44:16,049 admitted that they'd seen UFOs or had 1075 00:44:20,210 --> 00:44:18,390 experiences during the Q&A so like in 1076 00:44:21,530 --> 00:44:20,220 front of like hundreds of people they're 1077 00:44:23,180 --> 00:44:21,540 getting up and saying this that the film 1078 00:44:26,210 --> 00:44:23,190 made them feel comfortable that they 1079 00:44:28,250 --> 00:44:26,220 could talk about it and then since it's 1080 00:44:30,470 --> 00:44:28,260 been released it's been getting pretty 1081 00:44:32,450 --> 00:44:30,480 like overall pretty good reviews you 1082 00:44:37,539 --> 00:44:32,460 know I'd say like 80% positive which is 1083 00:44:39,890 --> 00:44:37,549 really good for like the online value 1084 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:39,900 it's been it's been doing well and it's 1085 00:44:44,359 --> 00:44:42,450 gonna go it's gonna be on Hulu soon like 1086 00:44:47,450 --> 00:44:44,369 late late in March which is gonna be 1087 00:44:49,329 --> 00:44:47,460 really big to get like lots of eyeballs 1088 00:44:51,740 --> 00:44:49,339 on it similar how how Jeremy's film 1089 00:44:53,450 --> 00:44:51,750 patience seventeen is on Netflix now 1090 00:44:55,609 --> 00:44:53,460 like it just being on one of those big 1091 00:44:57,770 --> 00:44:55,619 subscription services like basically 1092 00:45:00,460 --> 00:44:57,780 like opens opens up your market by 1093 00:45:02,420 --> 00:45:00,470 millions so I think that'll be the real 1094 00:45:05,359 --> 00:45:02,430 interesting test cuz right now I'd say 1095 00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:05,369 like you know thousands have seen it but 1096 00:45:09,980 --> 00:45:07,650 soon it will be much much more than that 1097 00:45:12,740 --> 00:45:09,990 yeah I mean in with what's exciting 1098 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:12,750 about that too is like that just you're 1099 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:16,770 giving a voice to like a really sort of 1100 00:45:22,069 --> 00:45:19,890 niche community that that is afraid to 1101 00:45:24,170 --> 00:45:22,079 talk about it outside of like their 1102 00:45:26,150 --> 00:45:24,180 friends or their support groups because 1103 00:45:28,670 --> 00:45:26,160 like no one's gonna believe them but now 1104 00:45:31,740 --> 00:45:28,680 that it's out there to literally to the 1105 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:31,750 world to both judge or accept 1106 00:45:35,370 --> 00:45:33,970 like that's exciting and that's kind of 1107 00:45:37,740 --> 00:45:35,380 the risk you take when you come forward 1108 00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:37,750 with these things so I think it's great 1109 00:45:41,370 --> 00:45:39,490 that you've given David that platform 1110 00:45:43,950 --> 00:45:41,380 and now it's up to the public you know 1111 00:45:46,830 --> 00:45:43,960 to come out with our own conclusions but 1112 00:45:48,690 --> 00:45:46,840 do you know like offhand has David even 1113 00:45:51,260 --> 00:45:48,700 seen the film or like what he thinks of 1114 00:45:55,020 --> 00:45:51,270 this whole process of working with you 1115 00:45:57,060 --> 00:45:55,030 yeah so it actually took a long time for 1116 00:45:59,010 --> 00:45:57,070 David to see it once it was finished 1117 00:46:01,859 --> 00:45:59,020 because you know he his preferred 1118 00:46:03,450 --> 00:46:01,869 viewing format as VHS right and it's 1119 00:46:06,810 --> 00:46:03,460 more difficult than you think these days 1120 00:46:09,930 --> 00:46:06,820 to get something done onto VHS so it you 1121 00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:09,940 know eventually I gave up and sent him a 1122 00:46:14,970 --> 00:46:12,130 DVD but even before that when the film 1123 00:46:18,390 --> 00:46:14,980 was finished he he called me to say you 1124 00:46:21,420 --> 00:46:18,400 know Brad I I had like a message from 1125 00:46:25,710 --> 00:46:21,430 from the beings that about the 1126 00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:25,720 documentary and I was like oh god you 1127 00:46:29,849 --> 00:46:28,090 know what did they say erase they said 1128 00:46:31,950 --> 00:46:29,859 that they yeah 1129 00:46:33,839 --> 00:46:31,960 they approve of it and that they support 1130 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:33,849 it and and even though it's sort of like 1131 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:35,410 a ridiculous statement like that the 1132 00:46:38,820 --> 00:46:37,570 extraterrestrials approve of the film it 1133 00:46:41,310 --> 00:46:38,830 actually made me feel really good 1134 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:41,320 because if they are real the last thing 1135 00:46:46,290 --> 00:46:44,170 I want is to be pissing them off so then 1136 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:46,300 shortly after that I I sent him a DVD 1137 00:46:49,829 --> 00:46:48,010 and he was able to watch that and he 1138 00:46:50,970 --> 00:46:49,839 yeah I was I was worried I didn't know 1139 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:50,980 what you know it's his life it's very 1140 00:46:55,079 --> 00:46:53,770 personal you know but he called me back 1141 00:46:57,089 --> 00:46:55,089 and said Brad I just want you to know 1142 00:46:58,320 --> 00:46:57,099 like I really like the film I think it's 1143 00:47:00,900 --> 00:46:58,330 really well done and that was it just 1144 00:47:03,240 --> 00:47:00,910 like how that's how you know simply 1145 00:47:04,530 --> 00:47:03,250 spoke and he is that was his review was 1146 00:47:05,130 --> 00:47:04,540 that he really liked it and thought it 1147 00:47:08,190 --> 00:47:05,140 was very good 1148 00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:08,200 so so I'm glad I'm glad about that it's 1149 00:47:11,910 --> 00:47:10,450 been very different for him I think 1150 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:11,920 thankfully he doesn't have the internet 1151 00:47:15,870 --> 00:47:14,170 so he can't go on to like write you know 1152 00:47:18,599 --> 00:47:15,880 Twitter or YouTube and read all these 1153 00:47:21,300 --> 00:47:18,609 like very childish comments that you see 1154 00:47:23,940 --> 00:47:21,310 yeah so he's sheltered from that which 1155 00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:23,950 which is really helpful but now he's 1156 00:47:29,609 --> 00:47:25,570 getting you know calls for radio shows 1157 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:29,619 he was on Britain's like biggest morning 1158 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:31,570 show you know viewed by millions every 1159 00:47:37,070 --> 00:47:33,490 morning they had him come into the 1160 00:47:39,540 --> 00:47:37,080 studio in New York to be latched in and 1161 00:47:41,700 --> 00:47:39,550 yeah that's you know that's a totally 1162 00:47:44,550 --> 00:47:41,710 new experience for this you know mid 1163 00:47:47,220 --> 00:47:44,560 seventies guy who never had any 1164 00:47:49,590 --> 00:47:47,230 of a Fame before so I think he's 1165 00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:49,600 actually enjoying it yeah I mean the 1166 00:47:55,410 --> 00:47:51,850 dude is in his 70s like let him let him 1167 00:47:57,090 --> 00:47:55,420 ride that wave for sure I couldn't agree 1168 00:48:00,930 --> 00:47:57,100 more and to know that the film has been 1169 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:00,940 approved the first UFO / alien abduction 1170 00:48:05,430 --> 00:48:03,130 documentary to be approved by the beings 1171 00:48:07,260 --> 00:48:05,440 abducting the man that's pretty pretty 1172 00:48:09,810 --> 00:48:07,270 bragging rights right there man for sure 1173 00:48:12,270 --> 00:48:09,820 well I know you're working on another 1174 00:48:15,030 --> 00:48:12,280 film that's you know kinda relates to 1175 00:48:15,930 --> 00:48:15,040 this kind of doesn't who knows where 1176 00:48:19,350 --> 00:48:15,940 we're trying to make those connections 1177 00:48:21,030 --> 00:48:19,360 right now in in our two different camps 1178 00:48:23,130 --> 00:48:21,040 of thought but you're working on a film 1179 00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:23,140 about cryptozoology which is another big 1180 00:48:27,060 --> 00:48:25,090 interest of mine can you tell us a 1181 00:48:29,790 --> 00:48:27,070 little bit about that project before we 1182 00:48:30,900 --> 00:48:29,800 wrap things up here yeah I think you 1183 00:48:33,390 --> 00:48:30,910 know it's a very different film like 1184 00:48:35,940 --> 00:48:33,400 it's about a big field but what's 1185 00:48:37,650 --> 00:48:35,950 similar about it is again it's something 1186 00:48:40,650 --> 00:48:37,660 it's it's done in a very non-judgmental 1187 00:48:44,490 --> 00:48:40,660 way and and taking it seriously so 1188 00:48:46,980 --> 00:48:44,500 instead of the typical you know 1189 00:48:49,890 --> 00:48:46,990 Discovery Channel or like reality TV 1190 00:48:52,830 --> 00:48:49,900 hunt for monster sensationalized piece 1191 00:48:55,170 --> 00:48:52,840 it's it's actually taking the field as 1192 00:48:57,330 --> 00:48:55,180 as just for under serious consideration 1193 00:48:59,250 --> 00:48:57,340 like cryptozoology is actually something 1194 00:49:02,340 --> 00:48:59,260 that that's important so we're 1195 00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:02,350 interviewing all of this most credible 1196 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:04,810 in the field like Loren Coleman Linda 1197 00:49:10,170 --> 00:49:07,810 Godfrey Lyle Blackburn Scott martes 1198 00:49:12,630 --> 00:49:10,180 we're staying away from from anyone on 1199 00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:12,640 the fringes and still I mean it's still 1200 00:49:15,990 --> 00:49:14,170 gonna be fun and quirky like you can't 1201 00:49:17,310 --> 00:49:16,000 get around that with cryptozoology I 1202 00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:17,320 mean all these people were interviewing 1203 00:49:21,780 --> 00:49:18,970 are all characters in their own right 1204 00:49:23,370 --> 00:49:21,790 and and the beasts themselves are kind 1205 00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:23,380 of funny and weird but it's it's not 1206 00:49:27,540 --> 00:49:26,410 about finding creatures were you know 1207 00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:27,550 we're still going out in the field but 1208 00:49:30,420 --> 00:49:29,410 we're not going on expeditions hunting 1209 00:49:32,250 --> 00:49:30,430 for something because that's when I 1210 00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:32,260 think you get into into trouble but 1211 00:49:37,410 --> 00:49:34,930 instead it's it's like the legitimacy 1212 00:49:40,050 --> 00:49:37,420 and history of it basically and in 1213 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:40,060 considering it like an actual field of 1214 00:49:45,300 --> 00:49:42,370 study so that that's cryptozoologist and 1215 00:49:47,070 --> 00:49:45,310 we're we're in the fundraising phase 1216 00:49:48,870 --> 00:49:47,080 right now but have have shot about 1217 00:49:51,030 --> 00:49:48,880 probably like fifteen percent of the 1218 00:49:52,710 --> 00:49:51,040 film so far well that's that's good to 1219 00:49:54,090 --> 00:49:52,720 hear man it's invigorating to know that 1220 00:49:56,610 --> 00:49:54,100 like there are filmmakers out there who 1221 00:49:57,780 --> 00:49:56,620 want to lend credibility to these topics 1222 00:50:00,210 --> 00:49:57,790 and that's what we strive 1223 00:50:02,820 --> 00:50:00,220 to constantly is you know give these 1224 00:50:05,010 --> 00:50:02,830 things a place in you know the 1225 00:50:06,630 --> 00:50:05,020 mainstream to be like look something 1226 00:50:08,730 --> 00:50:06,640 weird is going on know we don't know 1227 00:50:10,500 --> 00:50:08,740 what it is but we're trying to figure it 1228 00:50:12,240 --> 00:50:10,510 out so I think that's really cool I'm 1229 00:50:14,730 --> 00:50:12,250 really looking forward to that film 1230 00:50:17,490 --> 00:50:14,740 Loren Coleman is again like a hero to a 1231 00:50:19,290 --> 00:50:17,500 lot of us out there so awesome yeah yeah 1232 00:50:23,240 --> 00:50:19,300 and if anyone is interested in more like 1233 00:50:25,350 --> 00:50:23,250 sort of serious almost scholarly 1234 00:50:26,490 --> 00:50:25,360 cryptozoology films there's the Seth 1235 00:50:27,870 --> 00:50:26,500 Breedlove you know it's multi on 1236 00:50:29,250 --> 00:50:27,880 monsters have you heard of him 1237 00:50:32,190 --> 00:50:29,260 absolutely yeah I had him on the show a 1238 00:50:33,900 --> 00:50:32,200 couple yeah months ago oh cool yeah so 1239 00:50:35,850 --> 00:50:33,910 he yeah he you know breaks down 1240 00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:35,860 basically like individual cryptid 1241 00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:38,650 stories and and that's also refreshing 1242 00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:40,330 that he doesn't do it in a in that 1243 00:50:45,510 --> 00:50:43,810 reality TV style way yeah and really 1244 00:50:47,340 --> 00:50:45,520 shines a light on these small towns and 1245 00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:47,350 like the lore behind what has happened 1246 00:50:52,290 --> 00:50:49,810 there yeah love it I I can't wait to see 1247 00:50:56,580 --> 00:50:52,300 a hybrid film between the two of you 1248 00:50:59,190 --> 00:50:56,590 it's Emily exactly well the paintings I 1249 00:51:01,350 --> 00:50:59,200 before we go Brad these things are so 1250 00:51:03,660 --> 00:51:01,360 incredible and I know we can't get our 1251 00:51:06,150 --> 00:51:03,670 hands on the originals but they are 1252 00:51:07,770 --> 00:51:06,160 available in some form right I believe I 1253 00:51:10,830 --> 00:51:07,780 saw this on your website where can we 1254 00:51:12,900 --> 00:51:10,840 get those yeah so the we made prints 1255 00:51:15,150 --> 00:51:12,910 available because it's hard to actually 1256 00:51:17,370 --> 00:51:15,160 buy an original you have to be in New 1257 00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:17,380 York City or Hoboken and pick it up 1258 00:51:20,220 --> 00:51:18,850 directly from David and if you want to 1259 00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:20,230 do that get in touch with me and all 1260 00:51:24,690 --> 00:51:22,810 I'll try and and work that out but 1261 00:51:28,290 --> 00:51:24,700 because a lot of people aren't in that 1262 00:51:31,010 --> 00:51:28,300 position we decided to sell limited 1263 00:51:33,690 --> 00:51:31,020 edition like very high quality prints of 1264 00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:33,700 six of our most favorite of his 1265 00:51:38,340 --> 00:51:35,050 paintings and if you just go to eleven 1266 00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:38,350 saucers calm you'll see a shop link up 1267 00:51:44,180 --> 00:51:41,290

imagine it would be polarizing for those 1276 00:52:06,630 --> 00:52:04,630 who simply have no room in their lives 1277 00:52:08,550 --> 00:52:06,640 to believe something like this and I 1278 00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:08,560 can't really fault people for that but 1279 00:52:13,110 --> 00:52:10,570 the way you weave in and out of Dave 1280 00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:13,120 life and like his genuine nature it 1281 00:52:18,030 --> 00:52:15,490 makes it something truly to ponder and 1282 00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:18,040 like no matter what did or didn't happen 1283 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:20,370 I think you treated David with 1284 00:52:26,220 --> 00:52:23,290 compassion with you know objectivity and 1285 00:52:28,620 --> 00:52:26,230 with this lens that allowed us to peek 1286 00:52:30,990 --> 00:52:28,630 in on this guy's life and it was very 1287 00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:31,000 grounded you know with the story that 1288 00:52:35,850 --> 00:52:33,010 could be true be out
