The K-Files - Unsolved Mysteries This is probably old news to a lot of you, but a revamped Unsolved Mysteries is airing on Spike TV now. Covering topics from missing persons to UFOs and alien abduction, the original Unsolved Mysteries was a smorgasbord of strangeness. This latest version of the show may have a new set, host and theme song, but the topics remain the same. It's everything that

The K-Files - California Drones Fly Again As I watched the mid-season finale of Fox's The Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, I was shocked to see a most familiar sight. Integrated into the episode's plot were the infamous 2007 California 'drone' pictures. In the show, Sarah Connor (Leana Heady) attends a UFO convention as part of her quest to stop the supercomputer Skynet from destroying

The K-Files - Conspiracy Cubed This column has been a long time coming. I have been contemplating the current state of the conspiracy theory scene for several weeks now. However, I have been unable to effectively collect these thoughts to form any meaningful conclusions. That is until I received a jolt of inspiration from an unlikely source: the sci-fi/thriller Cube. With a historic

With the success of Peter Joseph's conspiracy theory epic, Zeitgeist, The Movie, a follow-up was only a matter of time. Premiering at the Artivist Film Festival earlier this month, Zeitgeist: Addendum is every bit as ambitious as the original. Focusing primarily on the fundamental flaws of our world economic and monetary systems, its biting social commentary is certainly topical considering

Review: Indiana Jones in The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull Rated PG-13 for action/adventure violence and language The last time we saw professor/archaeologist/adventurer/Nazi-killer Henry "Indiana" Jones on the big screen was almost two full decades ago. Suffice it to say, quite a lot has happened since then. Writer George Lucas got to making the oft-criticized Star Wars prequels, director

The K-Files - Summer Blockbuster Preview Part 2 Welcome to Part 2 of my Summer Blockbuster Preview. Last week I began to peel away the layers of hype surrounding this year's batch of soon-to-be-released summer blockbusters. Bringing us up to the 4th of July Weekend will be a varied mix of superhero flicks, paranormal thrillers, and the return of Indiana Jones. From July onward, the offerings

The K-Files - Summer Movie Preview Part 1 It felt like it would never come, but the summer months are finally around the corner. The warm weather and long nights are certainly nice, but what excites me most about the summer is the lineup of blockbuster action flicks being released. This summer will see an eclectic mix from the stalwart superhero adaptation to the return of a few long-lost

Review: Speed Racer - Directed by the Wachowski Brothers Rated PG for brief violence and language For any boy that has grown up since the 1970s, Speed Racer is likely on your list of kick ass cartoons. The way it combined action/adventure spy stories with automobile racing was so outlandish that you couldn't help but be entertained by it. In this same way, the Wachowski's highly ambitious live

Review: Iron Man - Directed by Jon Favreau Rated PG-13 for sci-fi action. Robert Downey Jr. as a millionaire playboy turned superhero? I could see that first part for sure, but if you told me ten years ago that Downey would be staring in a kid-friendly blockbuster, I would have scoffed. But let me say this: Whoever was in charge of casting deserves a raise. In Iron Man, prodigal weapons

The K-Files - Phoenix Hoax It's just bad news after bad news... I can't seem to catch a break lately. In March, my dream of seeing a UFO was crushed after only a week. Now, it seems my hope for a major new UFO event to sink my investigative teeth into has similarly been destroyed. As I stated in last week's column, I was totally prepared to follow this latest Phoenix Lights Redux story through

The K-Files - Seeing Signs Are you the kind of person that sees Signs…sees miracles? I know I am. I just saw it the other night, in fact. I’m speaking of course about M Night Shyamalan’s 2002 thriller about faith, family, and alien invasion. Considering the proximity of its airing to this unfolding Phoenix Lights Part Deux business, I can’t help but smile at the coincidence. Or, as Mel Gibson

Review: Street Kings - Directed by David Ayer Rated R for gang violence and strong language With a screenplay by the guy who wrote the novel that would go on to be L.A. Confidential and the hit/miss scribe behind Ultraviolet and Equilibrium, and directed by the guy who wrote the screenplay for Training Day, Street King's pedigree would suggest an epic crime movie. Unfortunately, what we got

The K-Files - Bring Back the Bomb Only two things scare me and one of them is nuclear war. I've become obsessed with watching atom bomb test footage on the Internet. Along with satellite photography of hurricanes, few things in this world can both stun me with their beauty and horrify me with their power like the rising mushroom cloud of detonated nuke. In concept, they are just such an

The K-Files - Battlestar Returns The Cylons were created by man. They evolved. They rebelled. There are many copies. And they have a plan. It is a simple enough setup, but these opening lines to the Sci Fi Channel's re-imagined Battlestar Galactica deceptively mask the series' intricate space opera plot. Considered by many to be nothing short of the greatest television show of all time,

The K-Files - Making a Better Dune A new Dune, eh? I don't read a whole lot of books. Save for my ever growing collection of comics and graphic novels, my book collection is limited to a select few of science fiction and esoteric novels. My most cherished of these is Frank Herbert's groundbreaking epic, Dune. Published in 1965, it would go on to win many literary awards and spawn a series of

The K-Files - Khyron Didn't See a UFO Well, that was fast. I was a UFO witness for not even a measly week. That's right, I think I just identified my unidentified flying object. To be honest, I was never all that confident that what I saw was other-worldly, but still...for that brief week, I was finally able to experience an event that, up until then, I had only read about. It wasn't all fun

The K-Files - Khyron Sees a UFO It has finally happened. After years of being fascinated by UFOs and writing columns about other people's sightings, I have finally seen one for myself. The experience was every bit as surreal as I expected it would be, but the excitement of the moment soon gave way to a tidal wave of doubt, puzzlement, frustration and eventually depression. Of all the stories

Review: Be Kind Rewind - Directed by Michel Gondry Rated PG-13 for some brief adult language So what gets me to see a movie? If I haven't been following its production or pre-release hype, it's either because the movie has a great trailer or an interesting premise. Be Kind Rewind just so happened to have both. In Michael Gondry's Be Kind Rewind, a failing VHS rental shop is on the verge of

The K-Files - Celebrity Theory I like the way Snrub thinks. In my usual perusing of Internet esoteric, I came across the headline, “Blink 182 Star Latest Celebrity To Question 9/11” on Alex Jones’ Prison Planet website. Yes, you read that right—a pop/punk musician doesn’t believe the official government account of 9/11. Promoting low-level celebrity endorsements: The times they are a changin’

The K-Files - Rise of the Machines Come with me if you want to live. Tell me I'm not the only one watching The Sarah Connor Chronicles on Fox. About as big of a Terminator fan as you're likely to find, I had my doubts about it. But so far this writer's strike mid-season gamble has done nothing but impress me. The series' take on the morality of robotics and high technology is refreshingly well

The K-Files - UFOs on the TV I think I'm seeing double here...four UFO shows! Turns out I was in fact seeing double, but two new UFO shows premiering on the same night--with the same title no less--is certainly an unheard of event. For The History Channel, UFO Hunters' premier was a continuation of that network's successful campaign to combat the stigma of 24/7 Hitler programming. For the Sci

The K-Files - Not So Esoteric Be careful what you wish for. There was a time that I was a vocal supporter of our favorite esoteric subjects. I would tell co-workers all about Alex Jones' Bohemian Grove infiltration or the details about the latest UFO flaps across the country. It wasn't enough that I found these topics interesting, I felt a desire--nay, a need--to get others interested in them

Review: Rambo - Directed by Sylvester Stallone Rated R for extreme war violence, strong language, and sexual abuse Sylvester Stallone's Rambo wasn't screened to critics. Do you want to know why? It's because this movie is so fucking hardcore that those artsy pricks would get their throats ripped out by the sheer badassness of it all. Despite being older than the rest of the cast by a solid 20+
