Documentary Review: Eyes Of The Mothman

The documentary is Eyes of the Mothman. You can view the trailer below.



I almost don't know where to begin so I will start with the basics. This is a very long and thorough documentary, approximately two and half hours in length. It covers almost every single facet of the strange goings-on in Point Pleasant, WV, in 1966-67, everything from UFOs, Mothman, Indrid Cold, Men In Black, and even the Curs of Chief Cornstalk. Included are also a history of the town, and segments on the Silver Bridge collapse and the production of TNT and explosives at the TNT area and it's subsequent pollution of the environment. Additionally the special features containing further interviews, commentary, a 'behind the scenes' segment, and a segment with the impressions of a psychic.

If you want an extremely thorough documentary concerning Mothman and the other paranormal occurrences that took place in Point Pleasant, then this is the documentary for you. Included are many interviews with believers who are down-to-earth and quite frankly, very believable. As far as negative things go, the only issues I have are trivial, such as that the length makes one not want to watch it in one sitting and that the documentary could have used just a sprinkle of sensationalism and/or drama to keep viewers attention. It's a little boring at times.

On a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being the lowest and 10 being the highest, I give this documentary an 8.
