Alien Autopsy (film)

Alien Autopsy is a 2006 British comedy film with elements of science fiction, directed by Jonny Campbell. Written by William Davies, it relates the events surrounding the famous alien autopsy film promoted by Ray Santilli and stars Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, also known as Ant amp Dec. The film was a moderate commercial success domestically, making no.on the British box office chart.

A Hungarian art dealer, Laszlo Voros, who is obsessed with crop circles, gives Ray the 30,000 after Ray convinces Voros that he is telling the truth. Harvey gets the money and gives the film to Ray and Gary. However, in the interim, the film has eaten itself i.e. degraded from humidity and heat and is now completely unwatchable, so the duo decide to film their own remake of the movie in order to remain on the good side of Voros. Based on Rays memories of the content of the original, and with the help of some friends, Ray and Gary remake the autopsy film. The film is made using a convincing replica of the dead alien fashioned from a mannequin and meat products from a friends butcher shop, and filmed on a Bell and Howell springwound camera, turning the living room of Garys sister Doreens home into a movie set in the process. Once finished, Ray gives a copy of the new film to Voros, who believes it to be real. But when Voros hears that the film is going on air worldwide, he claims that he never gave his permission for Santilli to distribute the film and demands that they stop the international airings. Good fortune intervenes, however, when Voros is knocked down and killed by a green Land Rover supposedly driven by a CIA agent whilst standing naked in the middle of a crop circle.Amber Fuentes, a newswoman, eventually tracks down Harvey, who demands from Ray and Gary that they help him keep his anonymity. They produce an interview with a homeless man who coincidentally had been an actoryears previously posing as Harvey, making the newswoman believe she is onto the wrong man. The now restored original 1947 film is ultimately returned, which Ray had left in the hands of film restoration experts in the hope that the footage could somehow be recovered. Some sections of the film had been repaired and were now watchable. After viewing the film, Ray and Gary bury it, telling each other that they cant go through with it all over again. ........
