Editorial Review:
Hollywood star Dan Akroyd who is a believer in the existence and government cover-up of alien life-forms hosts this look into the phenomenon of UFO sightings. Akroyd shares his personal experiences in this field and also discusses recent findings with author and UFOlogist David Sereda. DAN AKROYD UNPLUGGED ON UFOS features UFO footage as well as testimonial material from Astronaut Gordon Cooper and others including former president Ronald Reagan.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: SCI-FI/FANTASY Rating: NR UPC: 013137210099 Manufacturer No: DV72100
Former Saturday Night Live performer Dan Aykroyd has built a sideline as a researcher into UFOs and tried to create an investigative program called Out There that was cancelled before it aired. Dan Aykroyd Unplugged on UFOs is an unusual combination of an interview with a compilation of striking (albeit blurry and inconclusive) footage of lights in the sky and other unexplained phenomena. Regrettably, Unplugged on UFOs undercuts itself by mixing compelling, inexplicable video (including footage from the Mexican air force and of the widely-seen Phoenix Lights) with more dubious images (like Billy Meier's discredited photos of spaceships in Switzerland). The movie also contains interviews with former astronaut Gordon Cooper and excerpts from a lecture by former Canadian Minister of Defense Paul Hellyer, but front and center is Aykroyd (who has appeared in movies ranging from Ghost Busters to Driving Miss Daisy, for which he was nominated for an Academy Award), who muses on topics ranging from sightings around the world to alien abduction to what he would do if he could travel in time. Though Aykroyd's comments on scientific topics are unrevelatory, his descriptions of personal encounters seem lucid and grounded in experience. --Bret Fetzer

Rating:  - GREAT FOOTAGE!!!!
This video has some of the most compelling footage seen to date. A must have for all those who are fascinated by the UFO phenomenon.
Rating:  - Debunked
I watched this DVD a couple years ago and thought it was phenomenal and very interesting, even despite the fact that the majority of UFO photos it cuts to throughout it's length are composed mostly of Billy Meier created pictures. All of Meier's famous photos were proven to be fakes and hoaxes long ago, why Aykroyd and Sereda chose to litter their DVD with so many proven fakes is beyond me. It certainly doesn't do anything to support their argument for the existance of UFO's.

Rating:  - For fans of DA: ****; for UFO buffs: ** = ***
Yes, it's really for fans of Dan A., despite not one mirthful moment. They even had a chance to work in an ironic bit, worthy of the best of SNL: Dan postulates on an alien's ability to detect degenerated atmosphere due to human excess....while he takes a drag on the ol' cancer stick.
Yes, one of the worst inventions on terra-firma, one symbolising all kinds of devolution, physical, social, economic distress is highlighted right along with Ackroyd's well-fed kisser.
Not that he isn't ... Read More
Rating: - Aykroyd views on UFOs
Dan Aykroyd proves himself to be a very well informed person with regard to UFOs and the alien abduction phenomenon. It is good to know that credible and intelligent individuals such as Dan are telling us their beliefs on this matter.
Rating:  - Who you gonna call, Dan Aykroyd! Why do UFO's drive with their lights on?
My favorite Ghost Buster and Saturday Night Live Alum is Dan Aykroyd. I was hoping this DVD would answer the age old question. "If UFOs are advanced technology from another world, why do they drive around with their lights on if they are trying to stay hidden?" You'd think if their technology is so advanced they'd have an off switch for their lights in the cockpits. I saw part of this on the Sci-Fi channel a few years ago so I thought I'd buy the DVD. Dan Aykroyd is great. It's kind of like ... Read More
