Movie Info

One of the most famous real-life UFO abduction cases on record becomes this character-driven drama from sci-fi screenwriter Tracy Torme. D.B. Sweeney stars as Travis Walton, a forestry worker who disappears one night during an encounter with a flying saucer. Authorities treat with skepticism the outrageous story related by the only witnesses to the event, Travis' five co-workers, who include his best friend and future brother-in-law, Mike Rogers (Robert Patrick). A state lawman (James Garner)

An intriguing film made all the more noteworthy due to its nightmare-inducing sequence onboard an alien ship.

Lame-brain version of a classic UFO abduction.

Features one of the most harrowing sequences (maybe) ever. I get chills just thinking about it.

The X-Files could have done this story in 42 minutes flat, though in reality, it probably would have deemed it to boring to bother with at all.
