Yes, in a brilliant marketing plot by our friend Mr. Bob Weinstein, the company is trying to promote the new sci-fi/horror film APOLLO 18 as truth and not your standard "found footage" rubble. So forget you sat through the BLAIR WITCH PROJECT and PARANORMAL ACTIVITY movies, those were phony.
Bob Weinstein: "People intrincally know there are secrets being held from us," Weinstein told Entertainment Weekly. "Look at WikiLeaks from a few months ago: There are secrets that are really true to the world. It's not bogus. We didn't shoot anything. We found it. Found, baby!"
Well, you can't argue with that. Especially the ending where he has to add, "found it baby!" That's enough to sell ys Bidites that it's real.
When can you see these piece of historical footage that was just dug up? September 2nd, 2011 is the release date. They are crediting Trevor Cawood as the director but nce this wasn't "filmed" we can only assume that he broke into AREA 51 and stole the film reels.
