Movies: Dark Skies

February 22 2013

Well seems Hollywood is off to a start with a new alien abduction movie called "Dark Skies".
It is a story about a family known as the Washburns who start to begin to experience some unusual activity.
These experience first seem to begin with their two boys, then the household, then starts too effect everyone in the family. At first it seems it could be paranormal, but from the title, trailer, and poster it is obvious that this movie is about Alien Abduction, and it plays extremely well with the tell-tales signs of what could be going on:

-Bad Dreams
-Alarms Being Set Off
-Electrical Failing "Street Lamps"
-Unknown person in the house, room
-Unexplained Bruises
-Unexplained Rashes
-Odd Markings "Brands"
-Blackouts
-Paralysis
-Blue White Light

Of Course some of the other paranormal phenomena that appear are:
-Poltergeist Activity "Stacked Items"
-Odd Animal Behavior
-Possession
-Shadow People

They also bring in an expert, who seems to not fully let them on of what is really going on. Just someone who can help them cope. As the movie's catchphrase, "Once You Been Chosen, you belong to them", foreshadows that something awful will happen. It is also confirmed when it is revealed that the expert is tracking the phenomena and has correlated a number of missing person reports. This is one major fear that some abductees have, that hey may just not return. Overall this looks like it delivers on the emotion level.....
fear inducing.... I know just watching the trailer.....it scared me!
