CHARIOTS OF THE GODS (Theatrical Release West Germany 1970)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.0|5.0 Starsìììì 

Chariots of the Gods—interesting and insightful documentary—presents a singular argument for the existence of ancient artifacts. Although it may not adequately address other theories, it is worth watching due to a fairly broad presentation of some of the lesser-known artifacts, locations of these artifacts, and their unique characteristics that raise questions such as how, why, and what.  The camera work is very good 50 years later.

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe? 

Yes. The movie investigates a variety of archaeological findings while establishing, in each instance, a connection to alien visitation to earth and offers little possibilities for other explanations. It has been put together well and introduces a few artifacts that have not been well publicized. It deserves a watch.
