The Fourth Kind Movie (2009)
A thriller involving an ongoing unsolved mystery in Alaska, where one town has seen an extraordinary number of unexplained disappearances during the past 40 years and there are accusations of a federal cover up.
In 1972, a scale of measurement was established for alien encounters. When a UFO is sighted, it is called an encounter of the first kind. When evidence is collected, it is known as an encounter of the second kind. When contact is made with extraterrestrials, it is the third kind. The next level, abduction, is the fourth kind. Modern-day, Alaska, where-mysteriously since the 1960s-a disproportionate number of the population has been reported missing every year. Despite multiple FBI investigations of the region, the truth has never been discovered. Here in this remote region, psychologist Dr. Abigail Tyler began videotaping sessions with traumatized patients and unwittingly discovered some of the most disturbing evidence of alien abduction ever documented. The Fourth Kind exposes the terrified revelations of multiple witnesses. Their accounts of being visited by alien figures all share disturbingly identical details, the validity of which is investigated throughout the film.

Movie Comments & Discussion
Tyler taped an interview in 2002, at Chapman University, and retells her story. It has been just two months since her husband's death, and the case is still unsolved. Dr. Campos encourages her to take some time off, but in doing so she refuses, explaining that Will's research meant a lot to him, and she needs to finish it for him.
She flies back home to Nome and tapes sessions with three different patients, all of whom have the same experience: they have difficulty sleeping, and every night that week, they have each seen a white owl at their window just staring at them. One patient remembers the same owl visiting her as a child. Another patient, Scott, says somehow, it got in his house. Patient Tommy agrees.
Abby has two children, Ashley and Ronnie. Ashley has been suffering from conversion disorder since her father was killed, and is blind. Ronnie blames his mother for his father's death.
The next day, Tommy, a middle-aged man, is holding his wife at gunpoint, and his children are also there. He mumbles something in a strange language, and then he shoots his wife, the children, and himself. The sheriff interviews Abby and wants to know what Tommy said. The sheriff is very skeptical of her explanations and suspects that she is responsible for what happened.....
It is a strange movie, however it based on a true story. Are Aliens here? Is the story true? Who knows, may you believe it, or not...
