“Unexplained Files” is a
surprisingly well-produced series featuring all the usual mysteries skeptics love
to hate: UFOs, aliens, ghosts, Fatima, crypto-zoology…well, you get the
picture. Although the show is really directed at the “true believer” segment of
the public, it attempts to sound objective and may even come across as somewhat
boring. Think “MonsterQuest”.
In an extended series like this, it's difficult not to find something of interest. Personally, I liked the episode featuring the Rendlesham Forest UFO case. The whole issue of ancient “giants” and “dwarfs” is also fascinating. Unfortunately, the “evidence” for Goliath's cousins seems to be a bunch of hoaxes…so far!
As another reviewer pointed out, series like this one should perhaps be seen for what they are: commercially driven entertainment. But yes, if you are new to the wild world of anomalous research, even “Unexplained Files” might contain tips for further study. Three stars.
