Movies: The 4th Kind

This movie is a dramatization about the Abduction experience (CE4). It is just a narrative about the phenomena taken in the context of a psychologist stumbling across some patients who share a unique experience in Nome, Alaska around the year 2000. Apparently a married team of psychologist had noted that several of their patients who suffered from sleep disorders had a common theme of night terrors associated with owls. The story takes off after the death of the husband of this team of psychologist, who believed his patients were being abducted by aliens. His wife, seemingly pick up the husbands findings as she too soon believes that an abduction experience is occurring within the town and herself. The film shows very little in the way of aliens and the abduction per say, but shows the real and traumatic experiences of the phenomena on human beings.

Please keep in mind this is just a dramatization. In order to build interest in the film, the advertising company and studio manufactured a believable and credible evidence that would support this infotainment that was "based" upon "actual events". Although as stated it brings the clealry illustrates the fear, anxiety, and stigma that abductees feel..... the story it self is a complete farce which has a secondary affect of hurting the credibility of many abductees.

First of all the events in the movie are fictitious, and even if you were to attempt to logically follow the movie there are several large loopholes of continuity and logic that do not make any sense (the circumstances and investigation of the death of the Dr. Abigail's husband by the local law enforcement.... many of you watch Law & Order and CSI.... you know what I mean) and the technical interference by the beings (video cameras and recordings are distorted, but a simple cassette recorder is not). Also the unprofessional behavior of and lack of responsibility the main characters such as the psychologists and the sheriff?

However, the movie does touch upon some of the beliefs that abductee's are familiar with. The way the entities enter the home, alter memories and perception, incapacitate witnesses, and somehow the interference with our methods of electronic surveillance. The film also make a leaps to connect the entities with the Annunaki of Summeria/Chaldea. Also the entities also do not care of evidence they leave behind and make no effort to cover up certain things. They are extremely aggressive and arrogant as well, going as far able to channel themselves through implants in abductees (such experiences often leave the individual paralyzed as it warps their body). The movie itself, I would say is a great Lovecraftian story more than anything.
