The book was published in 1998, though.

@Mendel, I did not have a chance to read through the Reddit posts, so thanks. I heard about this new film while out mowing, so I ran in and tried to find it. As it was unavailable I just quickly posted what I could find. But, as to the...

That raises an interesting side-thought -- as the conspiracist element in our group-think as a society pushes us further into distrust of "the experts," at what point do the "expert UFOlogists" or "expert bigfoot hunters" start to get impacted...
