Trailer Synopsis Cast

A story that imagines how these real-world phenomena may be related. In this story, startling amateur video and photographic evidence, as well as additional audio recordings, suggests whales weren’t the only creatures affected by the Navy’s sonar. The film follows the two scientists who tracked the whale beachings for years and delivers first-hand, on-camera accounts of what they claim to have discovered in the aftermath of one particular beaching. Their story is nothing less than fantastical: they claim to have found the remains of a mermaid.

Documentary-drama recounting the Martian War of 1913–1917. Europe was on tenterhooks in the 2nd decade of the 20th century, everyone was expecting a Great War between the major European powers. But then, in 1913, something crashed into the forests of SW Germany. Troops were sent to investigate but were wiped out. Martian fighting machines began making their way across Western Europe and the countries of Europe combined forces to resist them. With aspects taken from ‘The War of the Worlds’ by H.G. Wells and from WWI itself, this dramatisation presents a documentary style look at events as they unfolded and the effect they had of our world today. Lots of references to real events including the mass attacks and defeats as men were thrown against machines on the Western front, the Christmas truce and the Angel of Mons, America's isolationism and late entry into the conflict, the worldwide Spanish flu epidemic that killed more people than the war, and many other things.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

As far as mocumentary goes this one is very compelling. It makes the audience think and ponder the possibility of a mermaid while still maintaining a healthy amount of fiction. It is far from perfect but highly entertaining.

The only good thing here was the computer animation. And I do believe if mermaids were indeed real, they would look more like this and not like "Splash" (which I love) and "The Little Mermaid" (not liked).But, where did these docufictions come from? This makes a mockery of real documentaries. This is a fictional program that is based off real science of DNA testing and so on; but mocks the discovery of real animals. I do believe there are indeed animals that we have yet to discover; but not mermaids or unicorns (will they do that one next?).Shame on Discovery networks for airing this. This should have gone to DVD with a disclaimer on it. Sad that they sold out for ratings.

You have to ask yourself why and how someone would fund such a contemptuous piece of rubbish? Seriously, why would anyone actually want to spend any time making this? Personally, those responsible should be horsewhipped or made drink their favourite sugary drink laced with LSD just so they understand when and when not to cry wolf. Sad, middle class twats laughing at their middle class parties toasting their fanny award and thinking what childish spoof they can get away with next. Sad c@@ts. Glad I'm not paying for this sh@t!In fact, In the words of the great Bill Hicks, go kill yourselves you f@@@in waste of space.

If you watched that show without warning, and you are no scientist, you probably accepted their lies as facts. The real fact is, being myself a biologist, I got disgusted as this crap vomited pseudo-science before me. How can they lie so much to the audience and, worst than that, in Discovery Channel, an (at least at the old times) scientific channel committed to the truth? That's bad news. Since that terrible "The Fourth Kind", it looks like lying to the audience is really in right now.PS: If you support this kind of crap, you should understand that believing that the earth was created 5000, 6000 years ago is a small feat, and I am sorry for you.
