Nothing is quite as it seems in Incident at Loch Ness, an entertaining pseudo-documentary comment on cinematic fakery. Conceived and directed by Hollywood screenwriter Zak Penn, this half-cleve...( read more

You'd probably have to be a fan of Werner Herzog's, or at least familiar with his work and epic reputation, in order to enjoy this. I am, and I did. Herzog's obvious self-awareness and ability to laugh at himself (and the myths surrounding him) are quite amusing.

MCT:May 27, 2008I haven't seen this recently, but it came up when I was looking for the unfortunate movie, "Loch Ness Terror" I really loved this movie. It was super funny, and I want to hug it. Everyone should watch it and love it and give it kisses.

Wernor Herzog, coward. Zak Penn, hero. That's all you need to know. A great look at one man's courage.

If there's one thing I didn't think I would see Werner Herzog involved in, I guess it might very well be a mocumentary or fake documentary. I actually watched this film under the impression it was directed by Werner, but discovered at the credits it was directed by Zak Penn (who also starred as the producer in the fake doc that is the subject of the film) and co-produced by Werner (who also starred in the film as himself). If you can't already tell it's a rather hard film to explain, which I guess, when I think about it, makes it more sensible that Werner would be involved. Basically it's about Werner Herzog setting off on with producer Zak Penn and other professionals to Scotland to film a documentary about the Loch Ness myths, when they begin to encounter problems and eventually something much more extraordinary. The best description I've read about this film so far is that "it's the film the Blair Witch Project wanted to be", and that's pretty accurate. The reason this film works and is so entertaining is because it looks and feels like a real documentary, and thus it's that much more involving. I think if someone were to watch this not knowing it was a set-up, they may definitely think it was a real documentary to a point. It's because of that level of professionalism (no doubt inspired and caused by Herzog's involvement as actor and producer) that this film is able to do what other films like it have tried to do successfully, and in highly entertaining fashion.

MCT:November 15, 2007There is an aside during the dinner scene, in Werner Herzog's kitchen; Herzog beams as he considers the joys and risks of preparing potentially toxic yucca root for his incipient dinner guests. The smile on Herzog's face is positively ecstatic.

Remarkable in so many ways -- Herzog is brilliant, but almost everyone else is a tad too wacky for the sincerity of it all. Still, the overall project is hilarious.

MCT:July 7, 2007i could say it is elements of curb your enthusiasm, life aquatic, and blair witch; but this would be doing this movie a disservice. this has genius all its own; funny stuff.

I quite enjoyed this film. The mixture if documentary and monster movie madea pretty and entertaining combination. Real-life filmmaker Werner Herzog, screenwriter Zak Penn (who also directed it) and the supporting cast all gave surprisingly good performances (Penn himself was stand-out, playing a dickhead version of himself) and there are some really funny and intense moments. Definitely worth a watch!

This has great potential, but the execution doesn't quite work. Herzog is fantastic throughout though. The DVD has possibly more easter eggs (including 2 extra commentary tracks) than any other I've come across.

this is one of the best mockumentaries around. very tough to tell what is real and what isn't at times, very well done. AND, you get to hear werner herzog speak a lot. if you read my grizzly man review, you'll see why that's worth mentioning.
