In our film we have decided to include popular conspiracy
theories to help with the mystery/ thriller aspect of the film and to play on
peoples real life fears. To do this I looked at multiple different websites
listing conspiracy theories.
One conspiracy theory I liked was that of MK-ULTRA. MK-ULTRA
was the code name for an American Government research program that focused on
mind control and chemical interrogation. They tried to achieve mind control
through cruel acts such as electronics, hypnosis, sensory deprivation and
verbal and sexual abuse. This programme turned out to be actually true and
started in the 1950’s. It was finally brought to public attention in 1975 and
all of the files were destroyed in 1973. Even though the CIA has claimed that
MK-ULTRA and any other similar programme had been abandoned, many people
believe this to be untrue. Conspiracy theorists also believe that many so
called “black-ops” were committed under the influence of MK-ULTRA mind control
such as the assassination of Robert Kennedy. Also it is believed that
Jonestown, the location of the mass suicide committed by the members of the Jim
Jones cult and peoples temple, was a test site for MK-ULTRA medical experiment.
Another popular conspiracy theory is that the AIDs virus was
created in a lab, more specifically by the World Health Organisation in 1974. This
theory was started by DR William Campbell Douglass. He believed that it was a
“cold-blooded attempt to create a killer virus” and that it was used in a
successful experiment in Africa. Other people think it might have been created
by the CIA or the KGB instead of WHO as a means to reduce the world’s
population.
Some Americans believe that FEMA (the Federal Emergency
Management Agency) own 500,000 plastic coffins that are stacked in a field just
outside of Atlanta, Georgia. Because of this some believe that they have also
set up multiple concentration camps across the US in preparation for the
imposition of martial law which could lead to the killing of millions of Americans.
People suggest that they’ll use the financial crisis to justify the imposition
of the police state.
Located in Alaska, over two hundred miles from Anchorage, is the Pentagons High-Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (also known as HAARP). This is an enormous experiment designed to heat the ionosphere with radio waves. However conspiracy theorists believe that it is actually a weapon that takes down aircraft and missiles by lifting parts of the atmosphere. Other theories of its true purpose include that it is for causing earthquakes, or a huge weather modification machine. On the weather modification front HAARP has been blamed for the 2008 Chinese, 2010 Haitian, March 2011 Japanese earthquakes and the 2014 southeast Europe floods. Richard Hoagland, an American author and well known conspiracy theorist, believes that HAARP is being used to prevent the planet from tipping over.
Chemtrails is the theory that governments put chemicals in
the contrails left behind by planes. Contrails are left behind planes because
aircraft fuel is primarily made of hydrocarbons, which gives off carbon dioxide
and water vapour as its main combustion products. Contrails are formed when the
hot exhaust gasses hit low pressure cool air and the water quickly freezes
forming a white haze of microscopic ice crystals. This process is very similar
to that of cloud formation and contrails are essentially elongated clouds.
However many believe that the government is spraying chemicals and biological
agents from the back of planes causing contrails, or chemtrails, to form. There
are many reasons that the government theoretically does this such as; genocide,
population control, administration of drugs for mind control or pacification,
suppression of human evolution, to combat and control climate change, or to
mask the appearance of Planet X/Nibiru .
David Icke may be known for his past football career but has
more recently been popular for his conspiracy theory where he claims that
almost everyone that has ever been in power ever is actually a secret evil
lizard person from the fourth dimension.
