		Loch Ness is located in the North of Scotland and is one of a series of interlinked lochs which run along the Great Glen.

		The Loch Ness "monster" -- affectionately known as "Nessie" -- is an alleged plesiosaur-like creature living in Loch Ness, a long, deep lake near Inverness, Scotland.

	Loch Ness Monster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Loch Ness Monster, sometimes called Nessie or Ness (Scottish Gaelic: Niseag), is a mysterious and unidentified animal or group of animals claimed by some to inhabit Loch Ness, a large deep freshwater loch near the city of Inverness in northern Scotland.
		Rumours of a monster or animal living in the loch are claimed by believers to have been known for several centuries, though others have questioned the accuracy or relevance of such tales, which were generally unheard of before the early 1960s when a strong "wave of interest" in legitimizing Nessie's 1930s-based history began.
		The solution to the question of whether or not unusual phenomena exist in Loch Ness, Scotland, and if so, what their nature might be, was advanced a step forward during 1968, as a result of sonar experiments conducted by a team of scientists under the direction of D. Gordon Tucker...

	Loch Ness Monster: Nessie Hoax Redux; Investigative Files (Skeptical Briefs March 1996)
		Then, in 1994 two Loch Ness researchers made news when they provided information that the photos were indeed a hoax, that they depicted a model made from a toy submarine to which had been affixed a neck and head fashioned of plastic wood (Nickell 1995).
		The part of the loch where Wilson said he took his photo consists of a series of inlets and there is no reason to suppose it wasn't photographed in one of these inlets (the promontories of which would not have shown in the Wilson photo).
		To be fair, very few people who have examined the Loch Ness legend, with the exception of the most dedicated believers, ever doubted that this picture was a hoax -- or at least that it showed something other than a monster.

	Stomp Tokyo Video Reviews - Beneath Loch Ness (2002)
		Considering that the Loch Ness monster is one of the most recognized enigmas in the world, it is relatively unrepresented in the world of cult movies.
		The only things in Beneath Loch Ness less Scottish than the locations are the accents of the "locals," who at times produce sounds somewhere between those of a drunken Irishman and a gargling whale.
		So the killings on the Loch continue and our heroes take it upon themselves, along with a local man (Patrick Bergin) who lost his son and boat to the monster years before, to kill the non-Loch Ness Monster that is swimming around Loch Ness taking bites out of the real Loch Ness Monster.

	Nessie on the Net! Live Cam - the Highlands, Loch Ness, Scotland. Lock Ness
		The Loch Ness Investigation Bureau (LNIB) were active during the 1960’s and early 1970’s (weird beards were in fashion back then!) and a large team of dedicated individuals kept a more or less constant vigil over the loch.
		Loch Ness plunges to a depth of over 250m (750 feet) and the crushing pressure and pitch fl water has made investigation by diving more or less impossible.
		Good books about Loch Ness are available and this website suggests that visitors consider saving their money and bypassing Historic Scotland’s rip-off Urquhart Castle (now greatly spoiled by commercial development) and stop at one of the many free lay-bys available along the A82 Inverness — Fort William Road.

	Incident at Loch Ness (2004) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Similar to some other recent faux documentaries, Incident at Loch Ness plays with the difference between truth and falsehood, fact and fiction, cinematic illusions and reality, while explicitly claiming to explore the same, occasionally untruthfully, in a cinematic equivalent to Epimenides' famous paradox, where a Cretan is claiming that "All Cretans are liars".
		But in trumping BWP and TLB, Incident at Loch Ness is a very realistic horror film as well, with horror coming not only in the climax when some characters end up dead, but all throughout the film with various minor disasters/problems, all threatening to send the feigned Herzog documentary to hell in a hand basket.
		Incident at Loch Ness wouldn't have worked without excellent performances, making it even more notable in that the majority of the cast are not most well known, or even very experienced in some cases, as actors.
