Apollo 18 Clips Show We’re Not Alone

The Weinstein Company’s ‘found footage’ horror film, Apollo 18, opens in theaters on September 2nd but even though it’s just a week away, we haven’t really heard much about the upcoming release (not even a cast list or photos have been officially released by TWC) However, TWC has just released two clips from the film and they’re fairly effective in showing what Apollo 18‘s about.
 
The Plot:
Officially, Apollo 17, launched December 17th, 1972 was the last manned mission to the moon. But a year later, in December of 1973, two American astronauts were sent on a secret mission to the moon funded by the US Department of Defense. What you are about to see is the actual footage which the astronauts captured on that mission. While NASA denies its authenticity, others say it’s the real reason we’ve never gone back to the moon.
 
In the first of two clips released, Apollo astronauts take a look at the window and don’t see what they expect to in the ‘Flag’ clip. Next up, the astronauts discover mysterious footprints on the surface of the Moon. Check out the videos and see what you think.
