victoresselli I love this movie, The visuals, The sound, the effects. Really weird and different, but awesome. We've witnessed a large amount of films that cover the "shadow base" subject matter as well as mind control topics. This subject was always popular, but for some reason it's in about everything lately...especially horror films.Montauk Chronicles is the epitome of that as it's covered by the filmmaker (Christopher P. Garetano) in ways that set it apart from anything else on similar topics. It's also allegedly true. So it begins with a mysterious masked character (JAMES) who tells the story of his hijacked youth and being wrangled by members of his grade school faculty to part of an evil mind control project beneath the Montauk Air Force Base. It's followed by a solid intro, with fabulous photography, and soon brings us to the three main storytellers. Now in their old age, the subjects all tell their individual tales with beautifully rendered flashback sequences in between. Some of the scenes were as creepy as any euro horror movie from the 1970's I don't want to give too much away but it continues through the entire tale and ends once again with the mysterious masked man.I didn't get the vibe that it was staged, so judge for yourself. Either way I enjoyed the hell out of it.It also truly opened my mind to what happened there. The subjects seemed truthful enough. Don't miss this movie. Shut the lights, open your mind....-Vick
nickjcq This is not in the movie so no spoiler here. The Montauk Project was something that started back in 1791 as it was about two family the cook family in the Pruett family as Jack Pruett came out of a crystal as sister who came to make him was Ashland Pruett who can't age pass nine, as he in her are white, as well as it go, as Nichol was the only one who can see him, P.S Al is Edward Cameron in Duncan 2.0 is got Duncan Cameron soul, well as it come to be, as I don't care what did, if you can teleport someone or time travel then that a good thing as well as it go on here, but the movie was good, in you can't get it no where, as the book can't get to, as same thing to files as well as it go, so stop saying thing are not real, where your poof it not real, as we can't poof it real, as you can't poof is not.
witchspy I purchased Montauk Chronicles last month and I wasn't really knowing what to expect. I saw the trailer after hearing the director speak on Coast To Coast AM. I'm a HUGE movie fan. I was born in 1954 and I've had many years to absorb and watch each following decade of movies unfold before my eyes. I'm really turned off by most movies of today. It seems like we lost something in recent years. So here comes Montauk Chronicles a docudrama that covers the tale of three men who say they were part of secret government experiments in the 1970's I was immediately taken by the images/cinematography in the movie. It seems like every frame was pondered over and frankly is quite beautiful. But after a while I realized I've never seen anything quite like this movie before. The central story is good and the interviews are interesting but I was sincerely focused on the craftsmanship in this film. The editing, camera work, creative decisions are all the work of an artist. It's honestly some of the best science fiction or horror images put on film that I've seen in a VERY long time. As for the topic covered. I think the men could be telling the truth about this experiment. They're interesting enough to listen to. It's really the movie as a whole that takes the front seat for me. Bravo. I cannot wait to see what this director makes next.-M W.
caroline-317 My excitement to see the Montauk Chronicles was spurred on by a radio programme on the release of the internet movie earlier this month. In that programme, the organiser was interviewed and a great deal of information was shared. I was so excited to pay for and download the movie to learn more about the Montauk Project. I researched the film and learnt that it had been a decade or more in the making, having been crowdsourced. I would imagine, then, that there were quite a few people interested in hearing some information about the subject of the Montauk Project.SPOILER ALERT:While the cinematography, lead ups, suspense, scariness and special effects were amazing in the film, I cannot recommend the film because I actually learnt more information in the radio programme than I did in the film. I was left feeling that perhaps the truth that is "missing" is that select persons have been implanted with false memories of the Montauk Project, or, more likely, that it was a psy op to mislead us from something else that happened on the site. My opinion du jour is that there were several consipirators, some of whom the filmmaker had to ply over a decade, who felt that they could promote their own products, selves or sales of their own materials based upon an elaborate tale. You may think me horribly harsh to say this based upon the allegations of abject cruelty in the film by those who appeared but do, as the filmmaker suggests, look at the expressions and body language of those speaking. Do you see wincing, agitation, hand wringing, nails into palms, sweating or pupils dilating? No? Me neither. SPOILER ALERT: It's another MOCKUMENTARY. I feel foolish and it's not the first time. Filmmakers who think we like to be titillated this way need to study the victims of sociopaths to see that it is neither "entertaining", nor is good fun. To those of us interested in such subjects, it's a right slap in the face.It is said that it took 10 years and crowdsourcing to produce the film. 10 years and such a slapdash job at evidence, finding others who had similar experiences? One need only see the complaints of crowdsource contributors up until this year to see the anger they have had until recently about the lack of production of the film. (No, I'm not an investor, I was only introduced to this through a C2C radio programme just this month.)Would it take 10 years to produce this film? No, IMHO. Is it an overproduced, over-SFXed rebuttal to the lack of a product of the crowdsourcing for the past 10 years? My uneducated guess is: yes. See the first half hour and see if you don't chafe at the overproduction and lack of documentary content. I'm not referring to documentation of the Montauk project, only to my perception that it would have been better to hear more unedited reports from the experiencers in the film, so as to make our own conjectures, as the filmmaker asks us, as to whether the subjects of the film are cracked, telling the truth or just making fun of us all for paying for the film, rather than the SFX.As they say, your milage may vary.
