Portland, ME (WFN) -- A cryptozoologist smells something fishy surrounding an alleged documentary of the Loch Ness monster.

A Loch Ness documentary made by filmmaker Werner Herzog is getting too much attention for Loren Coleman's taste because people are believing it's factual, when according to Coleman it's phony.

At the website truthaboutlochness.com there is footage of Herzog with what appears to be the Loch Ness Monster in the background.

Coleman says it looks like Herzog is trying to make a "Blair Witch Project" style movie, but he claims people are just looking at the video clips and believing it's true without doing further research.

The straw that broke Nessie's back for Coleman is a "mystery photo" on the website of a scantily clad woman in an American flag bikini. He calls it sexist.

Coleman believes "the movie is an examination of the gullibility of lake monster hunters and believers and tourists."
