}}Chariots of the Gods ({{lang-de|Erinnerungen an die Zukunft}}) is a 1970 West German documentary film directed by Harald Reinl.

The film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature.[2][3] It was the 9th highest grossing film of 1970.[4]

Synopsis

The film begins by introducing the Cargo Cults established by South Pacific Natives after coming in contact with American planes in World War II. It claims that is likely that all religions began in a similar fashion. The viewer is then presented with various ancient texts, architecture, and artwork. Some of these include the Bible, the Pyramids, the Epic of Gilgamesh, and the Nazca Lines.

Film critic Phil Hall said, "They don't make films like this anymore, and we should be glad for that." The film was criticized for a lack of scientific evidence. Roger Ebert called it, "Science Fiction."[6] The film holds a 44% audience score rating on the film review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes.[7]

Other versions
