The small town of Alamogordo, New Mexico, is home to a landfill and an urban legend. Soon it will be the site of a documentary film.

Legend has it that the town's 100-acre landfill was a site of a huge dump by gaming company Atari in 1983, local news station KRQE reports. Atari made a home game version of the movie "E.T." that was thought to be so bad that the company allegedly dumped 3.5 million copies of the game.

A New York Times report from September 1983 confirms that Atari did, indeed, dump some game cartridges in the landfill, but it's unclear exactly how many or what else, if anything, is in the landfill.

The documentarians, Fuel Industries, will have access to the landfill for the next six months to dig around and film.
