This is a POV film shot entirely through the eyes of a minor who admittedly has autism. No, seriously. The only reason I forced myself to make it to the end of this film is because I spent the day vegging on B movies with low IMDb ratings - I had LOW expectations. It seems direct-to-video is primarily what Netflix is offering these days so I thought I'd give them a go. Some were fun and funky but this one is just utter crap - be forewarned. If you enjoy frame after frame of images that are either distorted, out of focus and/or out of frame then this movies is for you. Alien Abduction started off OK but honestly, a high school freshman could pull this poor excuse for a feature-length film off.
... View MoreI had to give it a 5 out of 10 because it is the best hand-held video-cam movie I've seen yet. The characters seem real, and likable, and the performances are pretty good. This beats the daylights out of Cloverfield and every other "found" video I've seen. There are actually some aliens in this one and the effects are fairly well done. The video quality is also the best I've seen so far. Even though the scenario has been used all too often, this one has, all I've seen so far, beat hands down. Is it a great movie? No. Is it a good one? No. But it is fair. It is entertaining and, if you like the found video types, it is worth a look.
... View MoreAnother Jump-Scare-POV film. With aliens. Boring, poorly filmed, I'd actually take more pleasure watching it before all the crappy after effects were put in, then at least it could pass for a B movie. As most POV movies do, it tried too hard and relied too much on after effects and shaky camera work to hide poor directing, weak narrative and forgettable charactersReminds me of a film a saw a few years back of the same name but it was also called: the mcpherson tape. This was basically a larger budget version of it, and it was still pretty rubbish!Still, alright for a cheap laugh
... View MoreOne of the worst movies I've seen in a while.Pathetic acting and pathetic reasoning by the actors due to pathetic writing. Let's hide in another man-made structure because they will never think that we would run from one easily found place to another! Unless of course some douche like Robert Lewis is calling the shots....We can lose them by screaming constantly and waving flashlights around!I cant write anymore, it's just too painful recollecting every single pathetic minute of that terrible movie.Do yourselves a favour people, skip this trash and watch paint dry, it will be more exciting.
