"Grey Skies" was released in 2010 and is about a rented cabin in the woods were abductions occur. The owner of the cabin is Betty, who is unaware of what really goes on up their. Robert and his college friends, Michael, Annie, and Hayden, have a small tradition of spending some weekends together every now and then. Robert brings his fiance Jenny, Michael brings his boyfriend Brian, and Hayden his girlfriend Sandy.
There are some conflict between Robert and Jenny, and their is tension between Jenny and Annie.
As they are all enjoying their retreat and stargazing, a "star" crashes to earth some distance. Hayden and Sandy go look, but Sandy passes out. The next morning they are aware Hayden is missing, they all go look for him and find him naked in the woods and out of out. The whole day Hayden seems different. That night Sandy is taken, and the power goes out. Everyone soon realizes something is terrible wrongs. One by one they are all picked off by aliens. In the end they are all "possessed" and return t their normal lives.
My Opinion:
KUDOS... for once their is representation of gays in an abduction story. It was a positive gesture and their portrayal was nice. As for the aliens, they are "grey" like and have the ability to teleport through shadows.
They are able to reprogram individuals and seemingly "fix" their drones from any injury. What is interesting this is another film that shows the sticky goo and a behavior of cocooning their prey. Unlike some other films these were presented as methodical and not as bestial. The movie was suspenseful and rather realistic in the sense that it was "smart"....too realistic with all the subtle and patience that they do exhibit.
