At last a movie worth reviewing has come along, and I gladly bring you the review. At first I thought this was a Blair Witch/Paranormal Activity type movie with added footage of said actors being slowly picked off one by one. Hooray for being wrong!! This film opens with Miss Milla Jovovich giving an intro to the film and how the footage they are using is actual footage and audio from the events that took place in Nome, Alaska.  The director blending both into a masterpiece of a film. Not only a thriller, but a in retrospect a great movie that makes you think.

When the film starts you get thrown right into the mix of the phenomenon with Dr. Tyler and the director of the film sitting at a table having an interview that leads into the actors that play each of the people involved. All of her patients are having problems sleeping and being woken up by an unknown force.   All of them remember a white owl outside their windows quoted as seeing it every night. This leads into one man going under hypnosis and freaking out about what he really saw. (Footage is shown of the real person at this time.)

Shortly thereafter he goes home and takes his whole family hostage and tells the police that he wants to speak to Dr. Tyler. The end of this meeting is sad (also has real footage from dash board cams of the police cars on scene). From this moment on Dr. Tyler is madly hunting down the answers of what’s happening in Nome. Through various moments in the film we get to see what happened during the real events as the film flawlessly switches from real life to reenactments.

Dr. Tyler at one point realizes that she herself has been subjected to this traumatic moment when the tape recorder she is having transcribed is brought to her and she hears herself being abducted from her own bedroom. This is where I will stop spoiling the movie and tell you how much it makes you think when you get to the end of the film. All the footage you see and all the moments the real Dr. Tyler talks about happening make you wonder.

I was very pleased with this film and plan on seeing it again to catch little things I missed from the footage of the real moments. Absolutely stunning film. If you haven’t seen this one yet get out there and give it a shot. By the end what you take from this film is up to you.
