What, the alien autopsy video from the 1990s was fake?! But they even had Jonathan Frakes in the documentary promoting it.

Magician fails to stop Louis Theroux using ‘alien autopsy’ film

A magician who filmed famous footage of a purported examination of an extraterrestrial has said it is entirely a hoax produced as a psychological experiment.

Spyros Melaris, 66, told the High Court on Thursday that he had evidence he filmed the entire footage in April 1995 at a flat in Camden, north London.

The black-and-white silent film was purported to be a recording of an autopsy on extraterrestrial beings recovered from a UFO crash near Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947. Since being made public in 1995 it has been widely cited as evidence of a conspiracy by the United States government to cover up proof of alien life.

Louis Theroux’s production company, Mindhouse, was due to broadcast a documentary on the origins of the “alien autopsy” on Sky this year.

Melaris sought an injunction to prevent Mindhouse breaching his alleged copyright by using footage of the “autopsy”. However, Judge Richard Hacon gave summary judgment against Melaris, saying he had no reasonable prospect at trial that he had a copyright claim and dismissed his injunction application. He ordered him to pay Mindhouse £17,000 of legal costs.

Sam Carter, representing Mindhouse, told the court that the autopsy footage was “an immediate global sensation” and was estimated to have been seen by 1.2 billion people worldwide. He said Ray Santilli, 70, a former musician turned film producer, claimed to own the rights to the footage.

“[Santilli] purchased some genuine 1947 footage of the ‘Roswell Incident’ from a US ex-serviceman in about 1992 [but] it had deteriorated to the point of being largely unusable by the time he got it back to the UK,” Carter told the court. “[Santilli] contends that he therefore put together a team of people to recreate the 1947 footage.”

Santilli said the film was made by a team including Melaris, who was the cameraman, Melaris’s girlfriend at the time, Georgina Damak, whose flat was used for the filming, and John Humphreys, who designed and made the alien body and other props, the court heard.

Santilli, from London, claimed that some frames from the 1947 footage he obtained were inserted into the 1995 autopsy “to give it greater authenticity”.

Santilli first “came clean” about the making of the 1995 footage shortly before the release in 2006 of a comedy called Alien Autopsy, with Ant & Dec.

Carter said that Santilli “then maintained, as he does now, that the 1947 footage did exist, and that frames from it had been spliced into the [1995 film], purportedly justifying his description of the [film] as a ‘restoration’ of that 1947 footage”.

Kind of sad that alleged footage (with no provenance) was allegedly inserted into the completely hoaxed footage of an autopsy made it all the way to a court of law.

Jim Carrey clone conspiracy

Jim Carrey stepped onto the stage at the 51st César Awards in Paris on February 26, to accept an Honorary César for his lifetime contribution to cinema, and the moment quickly turned into something far bigger than the award itself.

Fans immediately fixated on how different he looked. Shoulder-length jet-black hair (a sharp shift from his usual shorter, lighter style), a calmer demeanor, softer facial features, and a more subdued energy left people doing double-takes. Comments flooded X and Reddit: "Who the hell is that guy?" "Unrecognizable." "Something feels seriously off." Some joked it was a Truman Show sequel in real life, while others went full conspiracy mode, insisting the man accepting the award wasn't the real Jim Carrey at all.

Theories exploded from there. The most viral one claims he's been "cloned" or replaced with a body double years ago-possibly after personal tragedies like the 2015 suicide of his ex-girlfriend Cathriona White (which led to wrongful-death lawsuits and intense media scrutiny) or his gradual retreat from Hollywood starting around 2017.

Proponents point to changes in his eye color (from brown to appearing greener/blue in some clips), altered nose shape, jawline, teeth, and overall build as "proof." They tie it to broader celeb clone narratives (think Avril Lavigne or Paul McCartney swaps), suggesting the "real" Carrey died or vanished, and this version is a stand-in to keep the legacy alive.

A few even linked it to his outspoken views on vaccines, spirituality, and Hollywood "darkness" in past interviews, claiming he "knew too much" and got replaced.

Carrey has been low-key for years, living privately in Hawaii, painting, writing, and turning down roles.

^It may come as a shock to these nutters that people look somewhat different at 64 than they do at 30.

Billy Corgan Thinks Rock Music Was “Purposely Dialed Down” Beginning in Late ’90s

Billy Corgan has a theory as to why rock music hasn’t been as prevalent in mainstream culture in the 21st century as it was in the ’70s, ’80s, and early ’90s. The Smashing Pumpkins frontman believes that rock was “purposely dialed down” beginning in the late ’90s.

“I think, and I will say it overtly, I think that rock has been purposely dialed down in the culture,” began Corgan. “Again, this gets ‘wizard behind the curtain,’ right? Somebody’s gonna say, ‘Well, how do you know who was the wizard behind the curtain?’ All I know is I saw the gravity shift.”

He continued, “If you were at MTV or around MTV in 1997 or 1998, suddenly they decided rock was out when rock was still very, very high up in the thing. And it was replaced by rap… Their standards and practices immediately shifted, so now that things that weren’t allowed were suddenly allowed. People were waving guns. Some people assert that the CIA was involved in all that. Again, above my pay grade, but I saw it happen. I did witness it happen.”
