'Overlords of The U.F.O' (1976) - G. Brook Stanford.

'After seeing 'Overlords of The U.F.O' your cigar-shaped objects will never be the same again!

The appealingly grandiose-sounding, 'Overlords of The UFO' remains one of the most sublimely over-zealous, and opportunist absurdities ever created about our permanently elusive alien brethren that I can recall seeing. 'Overlords of The UFO' is a notable exemplar of the 1970s seemingly ceaseless obsession with hyperbolic myths and magnificently embroidered mythology; naturally, the greatest myth remaining the, as-yet, wholly unproven existence of any earth-curious intergalactic dudes ever having once graced our troubled shores. Happily, the plucky myth-makers behind 'Overlords of The UFO' attempt to do just that, and their glorious disregard for empirical evidence makes for one of the most entertainingly ludicrous of all the giddy, cash-in 'documentaries' about this post-Spielbergian, paradigm-maintaining, extra terrestrial phenomena. Your cigar-shaped objects would never be the same again! This relentlessly bogus, frequently hilarious, wickedly insensible work is almost without peer, and thus makes for utterly essential, late night, boozy entertainment, and therefore should be mandatory viewing for all earthlings, young, old, credulous or incredulously inclined! I always felt that should aliens exist, they wouldn't resemble anything quite so neatly anthropoid as depicted in 'documentaries' like this; as it all seems to have sprung, ready-to-wear from the lurid pen of some perfectly-paranoid sci-fi writer's fervid imagination. Frankly, those Hollywood aliens never seemed alien enough for me!

'All of our information is sourced from highly credible publications!'

'Sweet Overlordly graphic, dude!'

'I actually DO like disco, but the guys at work razz me about it!'

'I am the original Monty Python!'
