Mermaids: The New Evidence

About This Movie

So, 'Mermaids: The New Evidence' is a fascinating documentary that dives into the allure of mermaid myths and sightings. It follows up on the sensational claims from 'The Body Found' and introduces some intriguing new footage—like purported mermaid activity in the Mediterranean and off the coasts of Britain. The pacing varies, sometimes slow as it builds suspense, other times rapidly cutting to dramatic re-creations. The tone is quite serious, almost mythological in its approach, leaving viewers to ponder the nature of truth versus legend. It’s distinctive for its blend of speculative evidence and historical anecdotes, like the mention of P.T. Barnum—who knew he had a taste for the bizarre? The practical effects, while limited, do still haunt the memory, adding to the eerie atmosphere.
