The Underground

I have seen most of Schneider's lectures from 1995 and this documentary provides a good overview of the available information about him and his life without going to deep into the lectures itself.

It does so fairly objectively in my opinion.

Bear in mind, that Schneider's lectures were explosive in its content; the documentary does not add any subjectives elements.

It is not the documentary saying these crazy ideas, it was Phil who brought to light these unworldly activities.

It's nice work this movie! Ignore other comments who have not watched Phil's lectures. Should you watch his lectures, watch the earliest lectures first where his recollection and mind was most clear.

You don't have to be a psychiatrist (or self taught metallurgist) to see serious mental illness on display here. Unfortunately the documentarians (or satirists? I'm not sure if they are well-meaning or making fun of the poor guy) go to great lengths to dive deeply into the madness without questioning it too much. Also rating it based on really shoddy production values.

The fact that it begins with "news" reports from RT really blows this film's credibility to bits. They have no vested interest in telling the truth or reporting responsibly on things in a country they would love to destabilize. No photographic proof, just stock photos of drilling equipment from around the world and speculation...lots of it. Just like most UFO stuff, except underground and no footage. Waste of 50 minutes.

As much as I'd like this to be true, why would a Geologist go to work Armed down a desert mine/shaft?

What was he thinking of bumping into some Graboids or something?... if so, a sidearm wouldn't help...lol

Why wouldn't he show the massive scar where this Alien Death Ray (Giggles) Opened him up like a fish?

Its guys like this that give the Alien hypostasis a bad name and why many don't take the Alien topic seriously!

I wish all this was true. It would be amazing. But after a few minutes of listening to Phil it is apparent that he's paranoid and delusional. Everything is anecdotal. No evidence. He claims to have been shot, been sliced open by an alien laser weapon, had a green beret rescue him but also die simultaneously... each claim on its own is interesting but when you add it all up he seems completely detached from reality. I felt bad for him after this and angry at people that have taken advantage of him for their profit and entertainment.
