Synopsis

UFO Hunters is an American television series that premiered on January 30, 2008 on The History Channel, produced by Motion Picture Production Inc., and ran for three seasons. Jon Alon Walz was the Executive Producer of the show and was responsible for selling the series to History Channel after a bidding war for the rights to the show broke out between History Channel and Sci-Fi Channel. The concept for the show was tested in a segment of History Channel's 2006 UFO special entitled "Deep Sea UFOs", produced by Motion Picture Production Inc, which featured two of the final four cast members. "UFO Hunters" was not a spin-off from a 2005 History Channel special with the same title. The tagline of the show is: Hoax or History? The series should not be confused with a similarly themed and titled UFO Hunters, a special that debuted the same day and time on the Sci-Fi Channel, and created by the producers of Ghost Hunters, but which only aired one episode. In the US, History Channel only released the first two seasons on DVD in the correct airdate order. However, the format was only released in full screen instead of wide screen. In the UK, History Channel released the third and final season on DVD however, the episodes were released in the incorrect airdate order.

Acensbart Excellent but underrated film
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
ActorAndrewFord Ufologist Bill Birnes shared inside details dealing with U.S. and the global elite dark agenda, sick-minded projects and the UFO (Nazi UFO?)scientific factual connection catching them in the act 3- times!...then the show got canceled mysteriously?...Elite obviously control the media! Wake up people.Birnes knows that the History Channel canceled UFO Hunters for a variety of reasons, including the high cost of the show, internal changes at the network, and also because some of the episodes such as on Area 51 were revealing too much information. But unless your a programmed average idiot you can see obviously those facters don't limit other shows that are merely entertainment going 12-Seasons so why would a highly publicaly sought after current subject as UFOs only go 3 seasons with the network Rep. saying to Birnes before the season was over "You steeped on things bigger than you...this is your last season so enjoy it"?!!!.One episode about anomalies and secret alien bases in the Dulce, New Mexico area (The actual Rosewell) was particularly controversial. In the program, they spoke with tribal police officers who described seeing various strange animals such as foxes with heads of rabbits. Gabe Valdez, a former state trooper, witnessed a helicopter hovering over a dead cow-- the cow was with calf, so a veterinarian was called to remove it. According to Valdez, what they found was a bovine fetus with a human head, and he took photos of it which were featured in the episode which aired in March of 2009. In April of 2009, a bill was submitted in the Senate to make it a crime to interbreed humans and animals...SCIENCE FACT! Only a average idiot who cannot just would continue to pretend to be a skeptic that there are no conspiracy. The show being canceled is proof positive if not he content itself.
driller703 I love the show. The audio tracks are fine. The subjects are well chosen. The shows are well done, and the cast is great. The problem I have is the extremely distracting photography. I cannot fathom why any such technique would purposely be utilized in a show containing serious subject matter. The camera goes in and out of focus, and randomly zooms in and out. It shakes all around, and there is sometimes static on the screen. I could go on and on. I, as many others do, take this subject seriously. It is a shame that the video is so terribly distracting. Either hire a competent cameraman, or fire the Director of Photography.Stephen J Brown DDS, JD Harrisonburg, VA
Seb I quite like this show and they do investigate some interesting cases but the subtitles are just awful. I know that sounds like a petty complaint but if you've seen it you'll know exactly what I mean.If they're playing a recording or phone call they flash up subtitles. Not just ordinary subtitles but each individual word appears on the screen in a random place really quickly until you find yourself wanting to look away because it's just so annoying. It's not like you can't understand what's being said so it's purely a design choice.Other than that it's a pretty good show if you're interested in this kind of thing.
heltons01 I'll be honest. When I first started to watch this series I thought that it would be more serious, but I was way off. If you cannot tell that it's scripted then you haven't watched it enough. When you go into the "fringe" side of science or the paranormal, you need to stay a skeptic. Granted, a couple on the show are to an extent, but William Birnes has no business on this show. I'm pretty sure though he was the biggest reason History bought the idea and put it on the air. The science part is nice and it does help some what in explaining a few possible situations, but other than that there is just way too much "its alien and it was a flying saucer and you need to believe it" and it just ruins the show. I used to enjoy the ufo shows, but this is just way off and the fact that the History channel is putting money and time into it is sad. Heck, the narrator has more air time than anyone.
