Top 10 Mind Blowing UFO Crash Cases (2024) - UFO Documentary Review

                   

Me and my father always enjoy documentaries about aliens and other supernatural and extra-terrestrial subjects. Top 10 Mind Blowing UFO Crash Cases is one such program of that type, this, as the title suggests, takes in ten different alleged instances. Short on substance, but entertaining in that nice brain-dead type of way, there might be not much new or surprising to be found within the forty five minutes here but it was not a chore to get through.

This takes a swift tour of some of the most well documented crashes of unidentified flying objects. Going by the term itself this is true, as to whether these were actually involving beings from other planets or dimensions remains the bigger question. There is no sort of order to these cases discussed, and neither do they all involve crashes itself. Instead, this covers a range of topics, from actual reported crashes to second hand accounts of having been shown alien technology at top secret army bases.

The old classics are on hand, with Roswell being one of the most well known ones shown here. There is not anything new revealed, instead this takes a light on details approach to quickly going over the topics. This was narrated by a variety of different serious sounding narrators, and there were not any talking head moments, or anyone being interviewed on screen at all. There wasn't a balanced approach, with it never explicitly stating these were alien in origin, but not looking at any possible other explanation either. Much of the fast paced editing puts in crude looking animations of aliens, wild artworks of giant crashed flying saucers, and still images. Some, like the Aztec, New Mexico crash have since commonly believed to have been a hoax, yet this isn't mentioned within the documentary, though it does state that official sources have claimed alleged events such as that one were not believed. I guess you could say that goes into cover-up territory, with this often suggesting that crashes reported as hoaxes or dismissed by the authorities were only done so to deceive the public from the truth. 

The content used for each crash often goes off on slight tangents, such as talking about American comedian Jackie Gleason who alleges he was invited to a top secret army base where he was shown remains of aliens and the saucer they arrived in. There is also talk of future technology that came about as a result of crashed UFOs, such as laser technology and new, never before seen materials.
On the one had, this isn't going to make a believer of anyone, nor will it reveal any unheard of cases. Despite that, this was entertaining with a wide variety of different little animations, photos and looped clips as a backdrop to the super serious and dramatic narrators. Written by O.H Krill, and directed by Charles Thompsen, Top 10 Mind Blowing UFO Crash Cases is out on digital platforms, including to rent/buy on Amazon Prime Video in the U.K and U.S, and is also out worldwide on AVOD digital platforms.
