interesting conspiracy theory. I viewed this as I first got into the subject of JFK's assassination. Since then I've read Vincent Bugliosi's "Reclaiming History" as the definitive work on the subject.

This DVD is a good overview of the assassination of Kennedy. True, it does focus on the conspiracy theories and it is not an unbiased look at the evidence; however, the interviews with people who have a lot to say are engrossing and the "evidence" produced is thought provoking.
There is no doubt that evidence exists to dispute the findings of the Warren Commission report on the assassination of President Kennedy. This DVD presents a lot of that evidence in a organized fashion. It is good to actually see the people interviewed who say the shots were coming from the grassy knoll. I liked looking at the photographic evidence that critics claim show a person (badge man) shooting from the knoll (I don't see anything). The DVD at least allows you to see the people and the evidence and make a lot of judgments for yourself.
A lot of the witnesses are not convincing to me, and a lot of the so called evidence just looks like junk. I have a natural tendency to distrust testimony from strippers (or former strippers) and I don't see what others say is clearly present in certain photographs. I am a lawyer (not a trial lawyer) so I suppose I look at evidence a little differently than most and probably take a more skeptical view, but I still like to see it myself and not let someone else tell me what something shows or who to believe.
I think the DVD does raise significant questions about the killing of the President as presented by the Warren Report on the assassination. I have read portions of the Warren Report and I have read a few books on this subject authored by both the critics and those who support the Commission's conclusions. While I would say this DVD does contain some speculation that is impossible for the viewer to make an independent decision on, and it contains a lot of language that is less than clinical, it does present a lot of solid evidence. Actual interviews with the Dallas police officers who were there and who talked with Oswald and Ruby are just invaluable. So are a lot of the other interviews. Just a list of those who have been sent to an early grave that had facts to support a shot being fired from the grassy knoll is unnerving. To see some of those same people on screen telling their story near in time to the killing of the President is compelling. If you believe what they have to say a lot of the Warren Commission's findings are not accurate.
If you are not interested in mysteries this isn't for you. In the end there are a lot of theories that can be supported depending on which set of facts you find to be most important. The assassination of President Kennedy is a mystery because so much is left unexplained. For example, there is no doubt the evidence in the National Archives has been corrupted. The brain is missing and at least some other evidence has disappeared. Once evidence has been tampered with a person is allowed to believe it is all under suspicion. The evidence is the foundation of analysis, and when that is gone mystery remains.
So the viewer will not get a solid "we have it all figured out" explanation at the end. No murderer jumps up to confess in the last scene and reveal all. The mystery remains and the uncomfortable feeling that comes with mystery - real mystery - is there. We will probably never figure it out because the list of "oops" or whatever is almost endless. Criminal incompetence on the part of the Secret Service, incompetent medical examiners, missing evidence, incompetent police procedures, consistent failures to follow even the most elemental criminal evidence protection steps, failures to tape or record critical interrogations, failure to follow up important information, investigators ignoring certain aspects of the case (who were the men who displayed Secret Service credentials to the police on the day of the murder), inconsistent statements from important witnesses etc. This is a real mystery.
A lot of people are murdered every year without explanation. The real world can be a messy and inhospitable place. We tend to want to think that the murder of the President of the United States would be different. With some of the best police agencies in the world working on the case we could figure it out and close the file and be at least comfortable with the idea that we know what happened. This film will not allow you to think that way. This was a messy event with a lot going wrong - as it usually does - and this DVD lets you know that. No nice world tied up in a nice package with a bow on it. No...this is reality. And a lot of it.
A very good DVD and well worth the price.

This was on the History Channel 10 years ago on 11/22/2003. They broadcasted the first 9 parts, but not in the order they have been filmed:
1988 Part 1 The Coup d'Etat
1988 Part 2 The Forces of Darkness
1991 Part 3 The Cover-up
1991 Part 4 The Patsy
1991 Part 5 The Witnesses
1995 Part 6 The Truth shall set you free
2003 Part 7 The Smoking Guns
2003 Part 8 The Love Affair
2003 Part 9 The Guilty Men
200? Part 10 The Final Chapter
Part 10 obviously revealed too much and was soon ordered by some court not to be broadcast again.
It's deleted from the imdb, if you check Nigel Turner.
It's such a shame that people cannot even watch it and make up their own mind.
If the collection would at least offer the 9 available parts, I would have rated it 5 stars, but to release only 6 parts and not even in the chronological order that's really bad.

This is the best video series ever on the JFK assassination. I can't understand how anyone could believe the Warren Commission Report after seeing this series. The Zapruder film clearly shows a large chunk of Kennedy's head being blown backwards. How could one shot fired from the rear do this? Any fool can see he had to be shot from the front. The doctors who treated Kennedy at Parkland Hospital said that he was shot in the right temple area. People who handled the body said that Kennedy had a large hole in the back of his head. Are they all lying? Peter Jennings conveniently left these questions out of his whitewashed account, "Beyond Conspiracy," and his documentary didn't even show the end of the Zapruder film until the end of the program; and then they didn't bother to comment on the shot from the front.
I'm not a conspiracy nut; I just want the truth. On jury duty you're asked to decide what is true or not true based on the evidence and your experiences in life. Those of us old enough to remember the Kennedy assassination will probably never learn the absolute truth, but this video series offers the most plausible theory yet on what probably happened.

The Men Who Killed Kennedy is an outstanding documentary on the assassination of President Kennedy. It accurately discusses the problems with the US government's official version of the events in Dallas while offering its own conclusion. The witnesses interviewed all have an important story to tell and should be listened to. There description of what happened on Dealey Plaza that fateful day contradicts what our government has told us. If we are to truly understand the reasons why President Kennedy was killed, we will be more able to change the way our system is run. If we fail to reconcile our past, then we do not have a very bright future.
President Kennedy was going to lessen the influence of the military on the US political process. His actions during the Bay of Pigs, Cuban Missile Crisis, and his attempt to end US influence in Vietnam all demonstrate his willingness for reform. As a result, he was killed by the people who wanted to hold on to their power that Kennedy was trying to lessen. The Men Who Killed Kennedy documentary accurately explains these connections. It is necessary that all people see this documentary so they can gain some knowledge of the truth.

If you have any doubts about more than one gunman after seeing this set of documentaries, you must be very narrow minded. If you just listen to eye witness accounts, plus the total lack of legal procedure, it is quite astonishing to anybody with any common sense to realise that Oswald was just a scapegoat for some very influential people. I did not agree with everything shown here and I did thing some conclusions did contradicted each other. However 90% of the information is very compelling and can lead to one conclusion, Kennedy was murdered by several different gunmen and there are people in power who are above the law. Also lets not forget Oswald was not seen with a gun or identified fleeing the scene or more importantly tried in a court of law. No Oswald was murdered in a Police garage surrounded by Police Officers by a known mobster in broad daylight. There is a lot of information in these programs and they do benefit from repeat viewing just to soak up all the facts presented here. The problem with any conspiracy theories that they are portrayed in the media as crazy wild or kooky ideas. After watching this if you still think that Oswald was guilty then I sure some where you must think there are weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

This is a very well-done documentary which definitely makes one wonder who is running things in this country. I have read many, many books about the Kennedy assassination, and very much appreciated the way this documentary tied together so many details in a clear, coherent way. My opinion is that there was definitely a conspiracy to kill Kennedy, but the plot is like a giant jigsaw puzzle that has many pieces and players. This makes it very hard to unravel the truth of whole story, and frankly, I wonder if the entire plot will ever be completely unearthed. This series is done in such an understandable way that it is easy to follow even for high school students or those new to the subject.
From watching the dvd's, one learns how much evidence was either ignored or destroyed when it did not conform to the official "lone nut assassin" theory that was immediately embraced by the Warren Commission. Many people raise the objection that if there really was a conspiracy to kill JFK, surely someone would have talked over these many years. Well. . .many, many people have talked! They were just ignored by investigators and/or their bosses who cherry-picked evidence in order to have an open & shut case against Oswald. For example, anyone who heard shots from the Texas School Book Depository was interviewed by the FBI and ultimately, the Warren Commission; those who heard shots from the grassy knoll were not. Witnesses who said they saw Oswald shoot Officer Tippit were interviewed; those who saw two shooters, neither of which fit Oswald's description, were completely ignored. Sadly, many witnesses have died very suspicious deaths--several of them immediately prior to testifying before the House Committee on Assassinations in the 1970's.
This series interviews many eye-witnesses who were there at Dealy Plaza the day of the assassination, along with law enforcement who dealt with Oswald, the FBI, Jack Ruby, etc. Doctors at Parkland Hospital who worked to save JFK's life, people who were present at Kennedy's autopsy, witnesses to the Tippit murder and other key individuals are interviewed and they all have a very compelling story to tell. Several veteran JFK researchers such as Jim Garrison are interviewed, as well as Marina Oswald.
Some might wonder why it is still important to know the truth of what happened on Nov. 22, 1963. After all, so much time has passed; is it still relevant? Is this just an interesting mystery for history buffs and conspiracy theorists? I completely agree with one of the investigators interviewed on one of the dvd's that yes, this is still a very relevant issue to the American people. First of all, truth always matters! Secondly, if there truly was a conspiracy to kill Kennedy, then that means there are people who got away with murder. Thirdly, if Oswald was really framed, then an innocent man was declared guilty and ultimately murdered--without ever receiving his constitutional rights such as the right to a lawyer, the presumption of innocence until proven guilty in a court of law, the right to a trial by jury, the right to face his accusers, etc. . . For his descendants' sake, it is morally imperative to find out the truth and absolve him of guilt if he truly was a "patsy," as he claimed. Finally, if there were elements within the government who wield such power as to assassinate the elected president, then there is really no limit to what they are capable of. Images of 9-11 come to mind, along with other shady operations which have been sold to the American people as being perpetrated by "lone nuts," "terrorists," or "extremists."
I would definitely recommend getting the additional dvd's that were cut from this series. (Available on E-Bay the last time I checked.) They plunge further into the plot and reveal explosive information and name the names of those who were probably calling the shots. Yes, most likely the Mafia, CIA, and anti-Castro Cubans were involved and provided the shooters and the leg work to carry out the actual assassination. But the ultimate responsibility had to come from the highest levels of government in order for the post-assassination cover up to be successful. Very thought-provoking!

THE MEN WHO KILLED KENNEDY -are still killing!
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 26, 2006Verified Purchase
When it comes to the JFK assasination??? Well lets just say as numerous polls indicate, most people don't believe what was put out by the Warren Commission. The British documentary series "The Men Who Killed Kennedy", was the only televised challenge that had the guts to speak it's mind, namely through producer Nigel Turner. First presented in 1988, Turner and his team assembled a great deal of testimony and research to dispute the "all so convenient and miraculous" facts that were offered up as gospel. "The Single Bullet Theory" being the weapon to blow away all those that dare doubt their government. But then being British myself and realising like many others what the killing of JFK has had on not just US but World history. I made sure that I watched this series when it had first aired on A&E. And what a revelation! Now I had already had my eyes opened, when the 1973 Burt Lancaster film "Executive Action", laid out many of the same findings, only hidden within the semi-fictional framework of not naming anyone. But this series started to fill in the gaps and start naming the cast of characters. Now this subject is certainly something that you can literally write volumes on, but to my simple way of thinking, you either blindly believe that one single person could kill JFK -with the worst possible choice of rifle; getting himself photographed with said rifle beforehand; being lucky enough to have Kennedy totally exposed in the limo -a virtual sitting duck; having in the first place, the luck and money to get discharged from the Marine Corp and being granted without any troble at all,a visa to Russia -and so on and so on, not to mention all those convenient deaths, accidents and suicides for years to come. Well to my mind at least -theres room for doubt!
It's the absolute body of doubt that makes the case for the series. Although serious damage was done to it's credibility when the so called "Marseille-drug hitmen connection" was prooved false. But that does not or should not alter all the evidence it has prooved. Which brings us to the final three installments of this nine part expose. Certainly the most controversial and indicting of all -part 7. "The Smoking Guns", part 8. "The Love Affair" and finally the bombshell part 9. "The Guilty Men". These three parts were aired on the History Channel on the 40th anniversary of the assasination. The first night the channel aired all three, I missed it. But the second night when they were repeated, a station disclaimer was added before each commercial break and the show aired without any cuts. Still, anger had been raised but the parent company Disney, held firm. They were released on dvd together with the rest of the series and then -they were suddenly no more. Totally pulled from release with the company deeply apologizing for having aired the series in the first place. Evenso, I managed to tape them from that second night anyway and I'm glad I did. Talk about in demand! That final part 9. "The Guilty Men" produced in 2003, the part that implicates Lyndon Baines Johnson himself, through none other than one of his attorneys Barr McClellan. Incidently at the time of all this, his son Scott just happened to be George W. Bush's press secretary. Now you don't have to panic if you missed the airing or couldn't get your hands on a copy of the tape or dvd, because Barr McClellan put it all down in his book "Blood, Money & Power" which is still available on Amazon. I guess LBJ's dedicated and ageing supporters, felt safe in the fact that the public don't read much anymore.
In conclusion though, this is a series worthy of debate. Personally I believe there was a conspiracy and a big one! Oswald was the ultimate fall guy and it wasn't just the presidential limo that took a big RIGHT turn into Deeley Plaza that November day. As for papers being released in the future, well you got to believe if anything was written down it's long gone now, along with anyone who even slightly witnessed anything. Such is the way with history and the struggle for power and wealth. And again being British -just look at our long, long history of bloody murder and state secrets!
