Plot summary

A year after the mysterious disappearance of an 8 year-old girl, we meet her grieving family as they return home from her memorial service in their small town. Later that evening, strange lights appear in the nearby forest and the family is exposed to an inexplicably strange phenomenon that rattles them to the core. The origin of the lights appear to be visitors from another world that seemingly terrorize the family. What they don't realize is that these 'beings' will lead the family to the truth behind the little girl's disturbing disappearance.

Kind of an Interstellar/Close Encounters rip-off

Ok, this starts as your basic alien abduction close encounters rip-off, but ends up an Interstellar rip-off. It is well acted, cinematography is good and the score is definitely the best part of this film. We never know and I believe the point is not to know if the alien involvement actually happens, or if it is a figment of someone's imagination. It's decent entertainment if you're up late with nothing else on. The writer/director definitely "borrowed" from other projects, even saw a little Mothman Prophecy in this as well. It's subtle plagiarism, would be the best phrase to describe this movie.

5 Stars For The Production...

The production values of this film are 10 stars. But the story is utterly horrific. Average? 5 stars. The cinematography is great, the staging is great, the costume and set design are great, the makeup is great, the music is great, the story....... SERIOUSLY AWFUL. I could point out holes in it all day. It really is such.a shame... it looks to me like a film that was funded well, had a great team who did their absolute best but were let down by the person who mattered most.... what a shame....
