Released to the public in 1995 on TV and via newspapers and magazines, this film has been debated quite literally around the world. Most TV shows and/or newspaper articles concerning the film were either biased one way or the other. Most denounced it as a hoax, some claimed it was authentic, but very few kept an open and unbiased opinion on the nature and origin of the film. No UFO book -- until now -- have dealt with it in full.

Alien Autopsy Inquest is the first book to deal with this film in its entirety. It details who has seen what, and discloses that Ray Santilli, the owner of the film, has not released it in its entirety into the public domain.

Several other researchers from the UK and Europe, including author Philip Mantle, have seen another autopsy film in the possession of Santilli that as yet has not been released. Their opening statements leave the reader no doubt that there is more film available if only Santilli would release it.

For the first time the complete story of the film's release is detailed, along with selected commentary from the national news media that covered it during its international release in l995. Interviews with Ray Santilli and other major players are included. Details of where it was screened and how it was released provide some idea of the conflict and controversy the film's release caused.
