Hi, try The Conspiracy. I knew nothing about it when I watched it and really enjoyed it.

Thank you

Ha! I just mentioned this. VERY GOOD low budget flick.

The Men Who Stare at Goats

You ever hear that poem about the sailor who had to wear a dead seagull around his neck?

That sounds really familiar but I can't really put my finger on it. What's it called/who wrote it?

Rime of the Ancient Mariner

Thanks. I believe I have read it before, but don't remember much about it. I'll hafta give it another read.

Why read when you can listen

If it isn't recited by the poet themselves, I prefer to read it lol but thanks for the link

It's not the actual poem lol, just a great song based on it.

Ahhh hahah that's what I get for not even clicking the link. Thanks! I'll give it a listen.

Came here to post this myself.

Also The Village (2004). Most people don't really get that one, but for those with eyes to see, it is terrific.

"Came here to post this myself."

Well I came here to chew bubblegum and...nevermind.

Parallax view All the presidents men The day of the jackal The conversation Rubicon TV series Executive action Enemy of the state 3 days of the condor

Good picks.

I'd add "The Conspiracy," a recent low-budget mockumentary type thing that addresses the Mithras cult.

What's the movie where the journalist finds out the CIA is smuggli bf coke into the US?

Can't think of it for the life of me

Kill the messenger?

Yes I believe so

You’re welcome

theres also American Made with similar theme

Except they made it seem like a ball of laughs and a popcorn movie. I guess to the TPTB, it is.

Winter Kills

Wag The Dog

Yep. The fake a war and get away with it. All-star cast.

Putting the truth in plain sight of the moronic masses and still most people cannot see.

The nice guys

JFK is still a good one. Maybe a bit dated, but still worth a watch if you haven't seen it yet.

I thought about posting a question like this. I'm hoping to find movies that involve aliens, and then spooks that try to keep things secret.

Here's a curated list from stuff.tv that includes a lot of movies already mentioned in this post: https://www.stuff.tv/news/25-best-conspiracy-movies-ever

Also check out The Davinci Code.

Long kiss goodnight.

That movie was a Hollywood take on the original "Bourne Identity" book(s) although it's barely recognizable as such.

Lunopolis - Two documentary filmmakers accidentally uncover the greatest moon secret the world has never known, and the powerful organization determined to keep it that way.

Capricorn One.

Its about a hoax Mars landing, with some obvious connections to the Apollo program. OJ Simpson is also in the film.

There is literally a movie named Conspiracy Theory (Mel Gibson-julia Roberts).

Arlington Road

Not quite a movie recommendation, but there was an old Nick Nolte movie called "Who'll Stop the Rain," that sucked. But, that shitty movie was based on a really good book called, "Dog Soldiers," by Robert Stone that I remember blew my mind. Granted I was a young college student a very long time ago when I read it so it may be really cheesy in retrospect.

Enemy of the State was pretty good.

A Scanner Darkly

Even has Alex Jones in it.

It's not the actual poem lol, just a great song based on it.
