Tim Wallace-Murphy dropped the bombshell on our show about the shame that was Bloodline the Movie. I was very disheartened when I first saw the movie. A subject that I have been following since the days of "Holy Blood Holy Grail," I thought that finally the subject was going to get some mainstream attention, outside of Dan Brown. Sadly, as Tim Wallace-Murphy told us, Bruce Burgess and his Co-Producer fell victim to a modern day con-artist. Let's discuss your thoughts on this movie.

Ok so I finally watched it. Wow. I can almost say it was embarrassing to admit seeing this.
I wonder if Tim would ever be so kind as to say who he thinks the con-artist here was. The only mystery to me in this whole thing was which of these people was being played by whom.
I also have to say that the "tomb" site seemed incredibly well-preserved for something supposedly ancient (even assuming that the Templars were there and venerated the site, that shroud looked very NEW to have been very old). Perhaps they periodically go in and change it. Additionally, those gold and silver items were strategically placed just-so, weren't they, to be caught by the wild camera angle going down that shaft? This thing reeks of phony.
And the sad thing is, as you and Tim said, this could have been an interesting documentary, even a particularly revealing one. But I think Tracy was right...the 'Priory' (or people purporting to be them) figures out and plays to the research-bias of whomever comes to them. "We've been waiting for someone like you..."--give me a break!
