I have been getting alot of emails from people about the new Encounters of a fourth kind movie. People are telling me the hypnosis scenes are disturbing because they are meant to come from real case footage and show people levitating ... but are they real?
There is some controversy as people in the Ufo community feel the movie is not based on real events as claimed and is simply marketing hype for another "blair witch project". I feel that if this is the case then people are being misled and the movie is not beneficial for Ufology.
Dr. Abigail Tyler is meant to be based on a real psychiatrist in Nome - a remote village in Alaska . She interviews numerous people who have been abducted in the area . The 'real case studies' which are video taped are meant to be the basis for the movie. Apparently however Dr. Abigail Tyler is not known in Nome and there are sparse ufo reports or abductions in Alaska in general.
Nome however is a real place in Alaska :
She did studies on other people in the same town who say they experienced strange phenomena or abductions.She used hypnosis on them.
What’s so interesting, is all this footage is captured live on tape,and they used the actual footage side by side in various scenes of the film.
The results of these studies often ended tragically and ended up getting Abby in trouble with the law,since these what appear to be, supernatural murders and physical damage to be people were hard to prove because the video tape would go all fuzzy when it happened.
However, you could catch glimpses of what appeared to be,people being possessed,in between the fuzziness. One man was levitated off his bed. Abby,herself,also got levitated off the couch.

i seen the move last night i was shocked because if it was not alians it was the mother who killed her little girl,
This movie is not as bad as most reviewers would have you believe. It shows some real style and craft, but it is in no way based on real events. Nothing wrong with fiction, of course. But the problem for me was the presentation of the abductions as some sort of demonic posession by Sumerian "gods" or something. So, yet again another failure to really address the genuine phenomenon on film. Still, I did jump twice. That worked out to $5.25 per scare. I've had worse.
The movie has to do with evil extraterrestrials ....
There's no way I would go to Alaska !! The one guy who went under hypnosis levitated and never was able to walk again, because of a broken back.. I was stunned, when watching the original video clips.. The extraterrestrials used in ancient language that's been dead for over 5000 years.. They said they were god !!!!
Think "Blair witch project" . It's all BS! The only people that go missing here in Alaska are inept tourists and DRUNKS!! It is fiction disguised as fact.
not everything based on real events is prtrayed exactly as it happened...
eg. titanic.
all they need to say it's based on tru story is names, in this case the 2 patients who go to see the doctor for therapy. from there they can do what they want.
I am looking for my video references to thier cases but i hae hundreds of hours to look at to pin point it ><
We have to remember that there were 300+ FBI that went there after the events claimed by the movie. This leads me to the conclusion of the classic, " You didn't see or hear anything or we'll kill you." bit. The audience was told from the start that the names in the movie were changed. It is possible that the footage was reinacted as well. Think about it, the lady had money with her career, but couldn't buy a decent camera in the year 2000 with a nice digital picture? I am not talkin about when the picture went crazy during the filming of abduction or possesion. I would be very upset if this movie was bs!
I watched the movie and thought it was fantastic can anyone tell me if there is a book based on these events?
We went to se this film yesterday, and although I had an idea what it was about, my partner didn't-I didn't outline it beforehand.
Afterwards she said it was intriguing, I thought it was a bit disturbing.. came home, naturally googled to see if there was any background to the original story. It seems that 'Abigail Tyler' has a web site (minus home page!) but only refers to study of dreams..Plus it was only set up in August this year--viral?
Although I believe the whole lot is fiction, would this suggest that the actors who played the 'real' characters are equity members and therefore will have some acknowledgement somewhere? Unless of course, they're just people they dragged off the street to play it?
Does it put ufology into disrepute? Only if you think that Star Trek does, or Independence day does.. It is when all said and done, a film, and whatever the hype might suggest, ALL films are made for one purpose and one purpose only--to make money! Good yarn, but not to be taken too seriously.
