Brilliant!

Beego from , 7th November, 2009

I throughly enjoyed this film, i saw it the night it came out and was completely blown away. It was nothing like i expected. I do think the rating should be put up to an 18 though is it is really quite scary. Very good story line and it makes you jump most of the way through. I would definitely watch this again! loved it!!!!

The Fourth Kind

A Customer from Chelmsford, 7th November, 2009

Eye opening!!!!! Terrifyingly brilliant...ideas and images to really make your brain work and your hair stand on end. Real life footage and fictional dramatisation combined perfectly to leave you wondering... Thoroughly recommend this film...just make sure you aren't sleeping alone afterwards!!!

Scary!

Sainty from , 18th November, 2009

I loved this film! Very scary and it must be as I'm a die hard horror fan! I don't believe any of it is real for a minute but it's definitely one of the best horrors I've seen in a long time. Mila is fantastic too. Great film. Can't wait for the DVD.

A Terrifying Thought Provoker!

GForce from , 9th November, 2009

Based on true events and featuring real audio and video from events which happened in a small isolated town called Nome in Alaska, this film was intense from the outset. Brilliant uses of acting merged with original footage and audio (which at times is truly hair on the neck raising stuff) keeps you engrossed and reminded that this isn't a Hollywood movie but rather a dramatised version of these spine chilling events which happened to real people and are still happening... It'll leave you shocked, asking questions and a little freaked out so be prepared. I think my girlfriend dealt with this film better than I did!! Definitely worth a watch, but with some caution as its not for the faint hearted.

Bored stupid

Terrible - don't waste your time with this film. The premise is silly and pretending it is a drama documentary does nothing to improve it.

Awful

Insanity from , 28th February, 2010

This has to be the worst ive seen in last 12months and ive seen some nasty low budget films in that time. All the camera bits in the trailer for this film are near enough all there was in the film, slow, boring. Cant believe people actually find this scary.

Why bother pretending the footage is real?

AlexUK from , 1st February, 2010

The idea behind the film's story is a very workable one & had the potential to be a very scary film. However, it's continual assertions that this is 'real' footage from a 'real' event is pathetic. The film tells us that we will see dramatised versions of events using actors/actresses, but that it will also show us genuine footage and audio. Sadly, that is a great big lie - the footage and audio is all fabricated, hell you can even find the bios online for the main actress, sorry, 'real' doctor that Jovovich is then playing the part of. Personally, I thought this was one of the worst films I have ever seen - mainly because it continually lies about it's content. I probably would have liked a film that was following the same storyline, but without all the fake 'real documented evidence'. Awful.
