Directed by Philippe Mora, written by Whitley Strieber and Whitley Strieber, produced by Dan Allingham, Philippe Mora and Whitley Strieber.
Average viewer score of 5.3/10 from 196 ratings.
Based on a true story (!) by Whitley Streiber. He and his family come to realise they may have been visited by aliens. This is far from the zap and blast effects of much of this genre and instead takes a subtler, darker and more personal (it's not an alien invasion, more like the personal accounts) approach. In doing this, it becomes much more sinister without being a horror film, there are some truly dark moments.…
