“Experimental 8mm Films by John A. Keel”

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 11:33 pm

John loved film, and shot a number of 8mm movies himself.  Some were simply home reels; others were more ambitious.  There was, apparently, a screening of a few of them in 1972.  Veteran Forteans may recall that he used to show “Egypt — 1954” at meetings of the New York Fortean Society and the International Fortean Organization.

  1. Wow. I wonder if these films still exist?

    The further you go into http://cowmanauction.com/ekjjrrxz.php?Fox=d3wL7 Jadoo it seems the more equipment he had to sell off to keep himself financially afloat. I always wondered if any of the recordings made it out of that trip – and clearly something came back from Egypt…

  2. Yes, they do still exist, and we’re working to preserve them. I don’t know about the recordings from Egypt, though.
