Just to highlight the Magical Thinking of Alteration Fantasists such as Horne, who believes the head wound we see in the Z-film was painted on [

We have to suspend our disbelief in order to enter the Twilight Zone of the Altfan.
In order to achieve this "crater" effect in the top of JFK's head it would be necessary to paint what we see in the background in a consistent 'crater shape' onto JFK's intact head.
Just have a think about this - you can't just paint a crater onto his head. The crater is supposed to be a part of JFK's head that has gone missing. In order to achieve this effect you would have to paint the background to show where the part of JFK's head is missing.
Not only that, the background that is painted in to give the crater effect has to blend seamlessly with the actual footage.
In the clip below, immediately after the shot, JFK's head rocks backwards, as it begins to come forwards the crater where the top of his head should be is obvious.
This is not a painted on effect.
Pieces of skull and brain were blown into the air and a massive piece of scalp, with bone still attached, is blown over to the right side of his head.
