Alien Autopsy

Skip the endless scrolling — Alien Autopsy, in the US on Hoopla, is exactly the comedy you were looking for. It says what it needs to say in one sitting, no filler. 139 viewers have already rated it on TMDB — the kind of consensus that does not happen by accident. Watch it for Declan Donnelly — stay for everyone else around them. There is no real reason to keep putting it off — it is right there on Hoopla.

Alien Autopsy arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. Alien Autopsy does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. Humouristic reconstruction of the 1995 scandal when two British lads were accused of having faked a documentary from the Roswell incident in 1947. Declan Donnelly and Anthony McPartlin lead a cast that never overplays a joke. It was released in 2006. What keeps Alien Autopsy from feeling disposable is a cast that clearly understands the material better than the format usually demands. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

Alien Autopsy is the kind of thing you put on in the background and end up fully watching. It does not lean on comparisons to make its case. It is a manageable watch, easy to fit into a single evening. Declan Donnelly's comic timing carries it through its weaker moments. The kind of comedy you recommend to someone who claims they do not watch much.
