Welcome Anons, to tonight's double feature Anon Theatre.
Today we are watching David Paulidas' documentaries Missing 411, and Missing 411: The Hunted, based upon his best selling book series on the Missing 411.
From David Paulidas' website:
The project began after a meeting with a park ranger and slowly evolved into a study on missing people who have vanished in the wild, many under highly unusual circumstances. We found in MANY of the cases, parents and relatives of the victims believe their loved one was kidnapped.
Law enforcement and the media typically do not publicize concerns of kidnapping or abduction when the missing can be explained through traditional means. There are too many similar cases to ignore the trend. The consistencies must be accounted for.
Missing 411 will begin a societal dialogue about these unexplained disappearances. We aim to be a voice for the victims and their families. Missing 411 The Movie will add visual clarity to these cases.
One common theme among all of David Paulidas' stories is that David does not like to give his own theories about what is happening to these missing persons. He deliberately tells his readers and audience that he wants them to come up with their own theories.
I believe we in The Great Awakening have a fairly good idea as to what is happening to in these Missing 411 cases.
Based on the books series written by David Paulides Missing 411 chronicles the unsolved yet eerily similar disappearances of five children in the wilds of North America across multiple decades. A real-life horror story for those involved, the film examines each case from multiple perspectives in an attempt to shed light on the unsettling topic. Les Stroud of Survivorman and Obama-appointed, former Secretary of the Interior, Ken Salazar are both interviewed for their insight into the topic, as are the families who have fallen victim to tragedy.
Hunters have been disappearing from North American wildlands for hundreds of years, many without leaving a trace. Former police detective David Paulides was initially brought on to investigate the circumstances around the many mysterious disappearances - here he presents the haunting true stories of hunters experiencing the unexplainable. Missing 411: The Hunted is based on the book by Paulides, which documents 185 cases of missing peoples from four different countries. All 185 cases fit a narrowly defined profile that was refined after researching thousands of missing person reports; these cases are the most difficult, defy common sense, challenge conventional wisdom and remain unexplained.
Sorry, I’ve read these cases for years and don’t believe they have anything to do with the pedo network or humans abducting other humans. What’s happening is not of this world, at least not the world we think we know.
I've read nearly all of his books, except the urban one, and seen both of these movies.
They're all excellent, fascinating and a bit terrifying. My family has started following all of his recommendations when we go hiking to stay safe and sound.
Props to you all for watching this. I just...cant... I have 4 kids under 6 and just cant have this kind of stuff at the forefront of my mind. God bless you all and God bless those that save the children.
Yes. Hunted is the second installment, specifically dealing with stories related to seasoned hunters who have no business going missing out in the wilderness.
The first film, just called Missing 411, covers some of the most important stories from David Paulidas' Missing 411 book series.
Stop using Amazon. Get a shield box and watch for free without giving our money to these evil corps. You can get anything in the world including what is currently at the box office. Just requires finding the good apps and maintenance
Check this out: "warning, thins is, I guess, "woo-woo" shit so don't let me waste your time if you aren't into it"
I was thinking about these kind of disappearances and I thought what if we all collectively hold what we perceive as the world around us together with our collective consciousness?
Like what if certain people, in certain mental and physical states can spend enough time alone in nature (a slower frequency or more stable energy environment), in a certain amount of time, maybe not much at all, they can leave the main bubble of consciousness and be in their own or a different one or in that state be susceptible to being snatched into different bubbles by different forces and entities
Just FYI, approach Paulides' work with caution. I say this as a former owner of all of his books. It's more a good story in many cases than it is a factual story.
Most of the cases he covers are very matter of fact, exactly as local folks and on site investigators relayed them. He does not, outside the film series, dramatize these stories. A fair amount of drama is inevitable in film, even within the confines of documentary film making.
True, Paulidas does a fair amount of additional research into cryptozoology and sasquatch, but he never crosses the streams with his 411 research.
I have found his work to be extremely professional and meticulous. I respect that he leaves the theories and conclusions of these unsolved cases up to the viewer, and reader.
I found the opposite quite by accident when I was a fan of his.
He covered a local case that I was interested in and so did research on myself. He made certain claims that did not at all match the official newspaper reports of the 100 year old case in the town archives, but which tended to make it fit the profile points better for inclusion into the book as a weird case rather than a tragic one.
As an author myself I was suspicious why he does not sell his books on Amazon. I have run into Amazon's anti-plagiarism software a couple times on my own as people have cribbed my work for websites and it is very hard to prove something is NOT plagiarized when you don't even know what the software is claiming IS.
I hesitate to call anyone a plagiarist but I can say that SOME of his articles when compared to sites like Charlieproject.org and other articles, bore a STRONG similarity to the original published work which felt like he had possibly copy pasted certain sections.
This would dovetail with why one would not put their book on Amazon because your account is frozen if you are accused by the software of potential plagiarism and if one is unsure what one copied this would be an ever present danger.
In some cases people HAVE been found since the books were written and he continues to reference their stories on interviews and in the books as still matching the profile points, never acknowledging that their deaths were proven to be otherwise. This to me hurts his credibility. I'd have to think of specific names but one that iirc comes to mind is a woman who was found a few hundred yards off a trail dead in her sleeping bag because she had solo hiked and injured an ankle and couldn't get to help so she just bunked down until her supplies were exhausted and died.
I like his stuff, but because of these and other reasons I view him a bit more like a campfire storyteller and take his stuff with a grain of salt is all.
Its so good to see a veteran doing well in the YouTube economy. That man worked like crazy in his first year on YouTube putting out 3-4 videos a week. The military sure taught him work ethic! I'm glad he is setting limits with 1 video a week these days. His previous schedule was a recipe for burnout.

Keep thy heart with all diligence for out of it come all the issues of life.
Smart move not watching.
Crazy. I almost clicked on The Hunted one today. Is that actually the second installment and I meet to watch the other one first?
Yes. Hunted is the second installment, specifically dealing with stories related to seasoned hunters who have no business going missing out in the wilderness.

I'm watching tonight. Thanks. For others out there wanting to watch, I saw it on Amazon Prime under documentaries.

Shield box?
Superbox is pretty easy to use.

Thanks. I'll check it out.
Btw. I watched Queen Mercury Rising instead.
YouTube has removed 'The Hunted'. Can it be found anywhere else or a 2nd link?? Thanks :)
It's on Amazon Prime for 3.99. Watching right now
Mr. Ballen on YouTube covers these stories. Hes a real good story teller.

either that or I think it's feral woods people.
Yep. Ditched cable 2015 and all paying apps with the sheild box still have to pay for internet though. My husband is techie.

I just recently found about this from Mr.Ballen on youtube. He was doing a series from the books. One of the books is available on archive.org
Mr. Ballen does excellent work!

I do quite enjoy his 411 summaries.
