The Fourth Kind



The Fourth Kind. I have mixed feelings about this film. On one hand I thought the "real archival footage" was stupid and EXTREMELY fake & the split screens were an awful idea that did not work. On the other hand I feel the movie contains one of the SCARIEST abduction scenes ever put on film. Overall I recommend you see it for yourself and be the judge. The film plays itself as if it were intermingled with actual interviews with abduction victims, but the footage is obviously faked. Another thing I didnt like is how aware the film makes you about the actors portraying "real" people. From the beginning there are an abundance of subtitles that say "Mila Jovovich as doctor Abigail Tyler" and so on. The abductions,however, are really fucking creepy and there is a few hypnosis sessions that get really freaky. As far as I know, there were many disappearances in Nome,Alaska but none of them were connected with alien abductions. So that is were the film gets the whole "Based on actual case studies" from.

overall- Kinda of stupid/Kind of scary
