Review: What on Earth? Inside the Crop Circle Mystery

What on Earth? Inside the Crop Circle Mystery is a new documentary on DVD about the crop pictogram phenomenon. I have long been fascinated by the subject and over the years my opinion about their creation has vacillated from possible extraterrestrial source to completely man-made by clever circle makers to created with microwaves by satellites to arising out of human consciousness to some kind of psychic phenomenon. The documentary has not convinced me of any of these possibilities, although I suppose I did not expect it to.

The video, produced and directed by Suzanne Taylor, actually leans heavily toward another possibility: that some higher intelligence from somewhere – some other reality or dimension, perhaps – creates the pictograms to communicate a message to us humans. The content and meaning of that message is not quite clear, although according to many of the people interviewed in the film, it has something to do with our spiritual awakening, our relationship to the planet, etc. I've heard this theory before, of course, but the connection is never clearly made between the pictograms and the message about spirituality. How they get from one to the other is not clear, except, perhaps, that that's what they want the message to be.

In this way the documentary becomes very New Age-y and the people interviewed sound as if they are talking about – or from within – some new religion. Much of their language when talking about crop circles definitely has a religious tone. They very often sound like believers discussing the mysteries and wonders of their religion. And once people get sucked into a belief system, that's when the problems arise when it comes to paranormal phenomena because they cease to be objective.
