GREY SKIES was an unwise attempt at a science fiction thriller made by a group of amateur film-makers in Michigan. They shouldn't have bothered, because this alien abduction story is excruciatingly bad, and quite embarrassing to sit through.The story is about a group of dull characters who hole up at a remote house in the woods and soon find themselves assailed by weird stuff going on. We're stuck with an hour of bad actors wandering around in the woods and occasionally screaming before the plot hits properly, but the budget is so limited that there are very few special effects and just lots of bright lights.The acting is truly of a terrible standard and the plot events that play out are completely routine. In fact, there's nothing here at all to keep an audience engaged, so I can only recommend that viewers avoid it like the plague.

What do you expect from a movie that was put out right before DARK SKIES? Its miserably low budget, horrible acting, horrendous camera work (even for a found footage movie), and the script between the characters are just bad bad bad. However, the only reason I give this a 6 is for the simple reason of the scare factor. This movie did make me jump a couple of times and that is hard to do. The 'you know its coming' doesn't happen in this movie and suddenly you are freaked out. Other than that, I wouldn't necessarily watch this unless if you have another movie to watch.Putting this movie against DARK SKIES, its about 2 notches lower, but the jump tactics are actually better in this one than DARK SKIES.

This is probably the worst movie that has ever befallen me in my whole career as a movie-buff / slouch.Horrible writing - a 9th grader could write scarier scripts. Horrible acting - the cast make Ben Afflek look like de Niro. Horrible f/x - on par with Sesame St. Good location - but thoroughly neglected. Half-decent plot - besmirched & buried beneath everything else. Production - isn't too bad for a budget film.It would be in everyone's interest if Kai Blackwood abandons his dream of a directing career, and concentrate on his day job instead. Look out for this gem in your local supermarket's bargain bin!

First off I must mention the dialogue in this movie, which is bizarre. After a while I thought I may have been watching a comedy, but there wasn't anything really funny happening apart from the dodgy dialogue and some amazingly stupid reactions from the characters. For example a scene of strange footprints in the forest, and one of the characters exclaims 'what are they?' They are footprints you Dumbo!!! One of the characters throughout the movie taking photographs,captures an alien through the window when taking a shot in the house. The alien is plain as a pike staff in the photograph, with bug eyes, rubber body suit and quite plain to see arms and one of the characters says 'is that a Deer?' Don't know about you but I have never seen a deer with arms, and bug eyes wearing a rubbing suit, unless Deers in Clare, Michigan, USA wear S&M gear. After being tracked by an alien, that keeps bobbing about and showing itself one of the characters says 'I have just been followed by a Racoon'! The first hour nothing much happens, in fact it is really tedious, so I guess the dodgy dialogue keeps the viewer interested wondering if it could get any worse. Well it did get worse, the film is a bit of mess. First when the characters are alien abducted, when they come back they are physically sick and tired and bit zombified, but unless you are paying attention you're not likely to notice. The aliens try to get in the house to get the rest with the help of the abducted zombie victims, politely knocking at the front door :/ as the film progresses the writers must have gotten tired with that idea and opted to beam the aliens straight into the house, then... bored with that they must have thought what the heck, lets just turn them into alien zombies without any effort at all. When the last one is left, she says to the alien 'I don't care where you from you're not taking me' more daft dialogue, so they take her without any effort, do some alien abduction type probing, why? who cares by this stage you have seen it all before and done much better, so all in all, a half witted film, with an half witted script.
