Paul Alien is the film that proves Seattle billionaire Paul Allen, co-founder of Microsoft and the creator of Seattle's Science Fiction Museum, is collaborating with space aliens hell-bent on seizing control of earth. Why did these alien overlords select Paul Allen to be their front man? In an era where the disparity between rich and poor is ever-widening, why are private corporate interests allowed to secretly hire space aliens and get tax breaks to take over the world? Paul Alien answers these questions and more while exposing the audience to Seattle's sordid economic underbelly of hobo street performers, anarchist junkies and an anti-alien resistance cell. Paul Alien contains shocking surveillance footage of Mr. Allen interacting with strange looking two-foot-tall alien creatures, known as 'Skoolabugs' and from the planet Zorkon. And, in a rare interview, media-shy Paul Allen admits that he plans to turn Seattle's South Lake Union neighborhood into an intergalactic launch pad. PLUS! DELETED SCENES - More footage of Three Finger Jack, Bob and the rest of the gang. SHANE'S BLOPPERS - Five minutes of outtakes from Shane Godsky, anti-alien resistance member and drug addict.

Or are they mocking peskey anarchists and potheads? It's hard to tell, but funny scenes with alien and Paul Allen lookalike. Definitely thrown-together, but editing saves it.

Something grossly appealing about this. If only they'd gone after the Wal-Mart heirs - Paul Allen is like, so harmless.......

As a twentysomething I am in to digital trendiness and so still I see this film as something that my very old parents (over 40!) might enjoy becuase of the pot smoking and the political message. But can you get it on an i-pod-nono? Why yes - but my attention span is not gonna fuckin' tolerate watching an over 60 minute trope on my dope tiny screened mope-scope. The first few minutes were funny tho.......

A trailer for this weird genius Paul Alien schwang on YouTube led me to download it here and now I must admit this is weird, genius schwang!
Yuk! This is gross, gross, gross! But only in smatches - the rest is pure British wankery in the low comic tradition of high panksters.
If Jesse Zook Mann is not already in jail then I will gladly send him a hacksaw so he can hack his way into his next jolly project of bloody dorfiness! Yoiks! Bloik! Yazzzooo!

This is anti-capitalist and anti-American and has the spirit of "fuck you" not seen since the punk rock days, and yet it is also some no-budget video garbage so lowbrow as to be inconsequentially retarded! Of course, I only got through the first twenty minutes. This is unworthy.

Yes I agree it's gross but not really. It's quite amusing in a 'late-nite" srt of way. Luckily I am an engineer and so was able to play the damn thing from this site. See www.Storypipe.com for quicktime Paul Alien stuff including a 10 minute chunk of the film and outtakes, deleted scenes...

This could be perhaps the sloppiest example of nonsense you Americans pass off as documentary filmmaking. First of all, there is no solid evidence that these aliens exist, aside from what is obviously faked "footage' starring Seattle Billionaire and a puppet. But is it really Paul Allen? No it's a fake Paul Allen and some of the other scenes are obviously staged as well. Still, someone should make a movie about our own Sir Rachard Branson who is a more dynamic person, more robust, more charismatic. The part where Paul Allen is ramming his tongue down the aliens throat made me physically ill, and for that I award Paul Alien five stars for featuring at least five truly original scenes, as retarded as they may be. One involves a dog having sex with a stuffed animal. Another shows hippies (in obvious taped from public access footage) firing up a bong with a soldering iron. The "Skoolabug Snack" is truly stupid bluescreen footage of a kind of psychedelic sushi montage. Bleech.

Certainly not an insult to the intelligence especially given the poor production values (compared to shot-on-film-fare). The music is great, awesome lsd techno and I enjoy seeing an actor play Paul Alien he is top notch. If you kn ow Seattle or Microsoft lore you might catch jokes that will fly over the heads of others. Funny news items at paulalien.com. I must say that I am partial to homemade movies and this obviously had no budget, and I think that was one of their jokes. The two foot tall alien creature is just weird with a voice that is nothing but electronic sounds.

A fucking brilliant complete, utter rip on the Amerikkkan corporate greed personified by Seattle pig Paul Allen. I am inspired by the "anyone can make a movie like this so fuck art and fuck pretentious art "cinema" attitude of this fucking briliant masperpiece! Not for everyone, especially hicks, rubes, media illiterates, jackasses, democrats, republicans, and especially, fucking especially frauds and liars of all stripes. Funny fucking shit! Fuck you!

Hello Daft Woonkers indeed this is a great film but the download is lo res and cropped weird. Is that to prevent piracy in China because my friends in Bejing are busy stealing higher-budget documentary fare anyway.
I would like to know more about the aliens, which are short and unhumanoid. Who played the torure victim in the EMP basement interrogation scene? Who cares - I LOVE IT. (and all highbrow snobs can fuck off)

If Michael Moore had traded his cheesburgers for some good ol' LSD and then half-passedly pursued MegaBillionaire Paul Allen this would be the result. Funny stuff here but weird, weird alien puppet sex and a dig humping a stuffed animal. I love the "skoolabugs." Obviously shot in a weekend by people who are retarded but ina brillkiant subversive way

I was thrilled to find some compatriots in Seattle who are not afraid of paranoid rich people! This film (seemingly created with alot of creative juices and NO budget) ruthlessly mocks the Seattle rich guy Paul Allen and his yachts and his space travel and all his other bizarre perogatives. And hooray for shane! Hooray for three finger jack! Almost doesn't qualify for mockumentary status because half of the locatons and the "actors" are REAL! i loved the pot stuff and the Seattle Seahawks scenes and the music by walter Donnuruma is superb. See funny links at www.paulalien.com. Again, HIGHLY reccomended!

Some of the material in "Paul Alien" strecthes the definitions of "fair use" and "satire." A truly shamelessly low budget, twisted, quite funny new film from Galaxaco. GREEDY BILLIONAIRES GONE MAD! Great puppet sex. -S
