Overwiew :1n 1972, a scale of measurement was established for alien encounters. When a UFO is sighted, it is called an encounter of the first kind. When evidence is collected, it is known as an encounter of the second kind. When contact is made with extraterrestrials, it is the third kind. The next level, abduction, is the fourth kind. This encounter has been the most difficult to document-until now. Set in modern-day Nome, Alaska, where--mysteriously since the 1960s--a disproportionate number of the population has been reported missing every year. Despite multiple FBI investigations of the region, the truth has never been discovered. Here in this remote region, psychologist Dr. Abigail Tyler began videotaping sessions with traumatized patients and unwittingly discovered some of the most disturbing evidence of alien abduction ever documented. |

The Hollywood Reporter - Michael Rechtshaffen
: ...Combines purported raw case-study footage with dramatic 're-creations' to unsuccessful effect.

San Francisco Chronicle - Amy Biancolli
: ...An occasionally frightening hybrid of dramatized narrative and documentary-style 'archival footage.'

Reelviews - James Berardinelli
: ...Too tame (consider the PG-13 rating) to generate any lasting horror and too contrived to work on a dramatic level.

The movie is quite an average one - it's neither creepy nor much scary. Watching it in the theatre would be waste of money and time. | | | | Reply | | |
