Editorial Reviews
Review
Praise for Bruce Rux's Architects of the Underworld: Unridding Atlantis, Anomolies of Mars, and The Mystery of the Sphinx:

"If I had to choose for a friend a single book that best showed the range, depth, and complexity of current UFO research, combined with a powerful argument for its ancient but revolutionary implications, I think Architects of the Underworld would be the book I'd buy. In fact, I'm sure it will become a classic. A scholarly overview of the UFO phenomenon, the book draws upon all the key sources (Good, Randle, Vallee, etc.) for what we now know or suspect about government cover-ups and disinformation, crashed saucers, cattle mutilations, crop circles, human abductions, and the superhuman occupants of the UFOs... In its treatment of ancient astronaut theory, it combines the latest data about the origins and dating of the Sphinx and the great pyramids at Giza with the purported face and pyramids on Mars... a tour de force of scholarship."
- Michael Miley, UFO

Product Description
Film historian Bruce Rux posits that the film industry has long collaborated with a government disinformation campaign about UFOs, shaping and controlling knowledge about documented UFO activity. The book uncovers the conspiracy roots of government involvement in science-fiction/horror movies, from pulp-fiction and Lost World romances to films dealing with flying saucers, the planet Mars, mind control, abductions, transdimensional journeys, and extraterrestrials.

Written in a mock-serious tone reminiscent of Rod Sterling's Twilight Zone TV Series, and illustrated with old movie stills and posters, Hollywood Vs. the Aliens is a fascinating, fun read, yet delivers some startling findings. Rux reviews the facts known about UFOs and ancient technologies, and how they came to be discovered. Then he investigates the period between the 1930s and 1950s, focusing on CIA Robertson Panel's recomendation that Hollywood be used as a deflectionary tool against popular interest in UFOs. Government involvement in Orson Welles' 1938 War of the Worlds broadcast is discussed, as are the Disney and United Artists studios' early connections to patriotic propaganda. Early '50s movies like The Thing from Another World and The Day the Earth Stood Still show UFOlogical facts that only government sources could have known at the time. From there the book goes on to discuss recent releases and the ongoing depictions of aliens and UFOs, right up to Independence Day, Men in Black, and Mars Attacks!
