From the director of Shameless and Phoenix Nights comes the truth behind one of the biggest hoaxes the world has ever seen. In 1995 a piece of footage shook the world.

This film was brought to the attention of best friend Ray and Gary. What follows is an chaotic and insane frenzy that thrusts these two friends into the limelight as they try and uncover the truth...

This was not my choice of film - got dragged there by my teenage kids - but I was surprised at how much the film grabbed me! I'm not a fan of Ant & Dec but they did a great job, even showing some signs of acting skills. Loved the documentary style of the film and while there is a little blood & gore involved it is lightened by the humour of the situation. There are also a few shock moments, but all in all a good watch.
Geordie TV stars Ant and Dec really come up tops here in their first feature film and you know what, it really works.
In this fictionalized account of the Rosewell Alien, the boys play a couple of dopey rogues in the hunt for a quick buck when they come into contact with Harry Dean Stanton who has a rather unique piece of film for sale. With the loan from a dodgy Hungarian Psycho our boys are in business and before you can say ' A Canny bag of Tudor' they are world wide names.
Backed by quality actors and comedians like Stanton, Bill Pullman, and Morwenna Banks the boys make with the goods.
The real buzz here is that the boys look like their having the time of their lives making this and their off screen friendship makes the character relationships totally believable.
Bravo Bonny Lads!!
Cheeky Geordie duo Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly have admitted they were a bit scared during the filming of their new flick because they can't stand the sight of blood. Unfortunately for them, the film is called Alien Autopsy and is a bit grisly. Dec said: "You watch Casualty and Holby City and it all looks so real. I'm really squeamish. I always thought I couldnt be in the operating theatre when they did that." The pair's new movie out on general release at cinemas... Read more
