Overview: 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. This encounter has been the most difficult to document-until now. Set in modern-day Nome, 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.

Director Olatunde Osunsanmi gets the task to use his brilliant mind to paint his visual images on screen with the film The Fourth Kind. When the film hit theaters last fall 2009, people were somewhat caught believing that the film was real cause the movie contains actual clips and records, made by Nome, Alaska psychologist Dr. Abigail Tyler (Milla Jovovich), in a documentary style similar to the Blair Witch Project. Ultimately, the movie actually turned out to be fake.

In this Sci-Fi thriller The Fourth Kind, we meet Dr. Abigail Tyler who is played by Milla Jovovich, a psychologist assigned in Nome, Alaska.  It’s a place where people are dying or missing. When the death of her husband and three of her patients report similar stories, Dr. Tyler goes on a mission to find the truth behind these disappearances. But soon she then finds out that her Husband and the other people who mysteriously disappeared were caused by Alien Abductions.

The film is shot beautifully and it’s well written. The cast did a wonderful job and they were very convincing in their roles. There’s never a doll moment throughout the film, it’ll keep you in the edge of your seat. I would highly recommend this film to anyone but especially to people who haven’t heard of it being fake, it’s best someone goes into watching this film with an opened mind.
