Very impressive! Maybe there will be a great awakening before I leave this forsaken planet.

I just saw the 4th Kind and I do have to admit it does indeed capture the terror of what some have described as an abduction experience. I think Fire in the Sky captured that terror as well and gave a small glimpse of what it might be like and share that emotion with the audience.

I remember they mentioned something about the smell of the abductors. Putrid Cinnamon smell...Think Whitley Streiber said something to that effect.

Possible good side about this info portraying these ETs as terrifying. If or when disclosure comes around...we will find it isnt really as terrifying as we were led to believe.

I wasnt sure what to make of The Fourth Kind. Whether it was demonic possession, poltergeist or what. I am God was one of the translations in the Sumerian language spoke. Sounds like a P O'd Lucifer...but thats my limited perception and religious teaching of it.

Interesting movie though.

Before I read the thread I have a question.

So was this thread created to coincide with the movie? Would this thread have been created if "The Fourth Kind" movie didn't exist?

As a young child under age 5 I had never read or watched anything relating to or about this Incubus/Succubus thing you posted info on. Yet I was 99% sure I saw this baboon/monkey type creature at the foot of my bed. It wasn't until I clicked your link that I said to myself "WOW That's it!, that's how it was!". 30+ years later. So I can't go with your relate an image or story to it theory.

So you wouldn't attribute any of this to demonic possession?
If not because by chance; you don't believe in the spiritual realm, would you rule out the possibility that this is more of a reason why it happens to you so frequently?

I mentioned above. Why would your mind or body produce an experience you were never exposed to, or had never cared to imagine?

Do you REALLY understand what is happening?

My apologies ATS, couldn't edit original. Req for previous to be del/rem...

I thought it was a very good film as well.
Its hard to act through something that most people cannot relate to in any way, but i thought jovivich did a good job. Very interesting nd whether or not its based on a true story or not, the fact remains that the phenomena of alien abduction or i should say anomalous abduction is occurring so its good to bring the facts to more peoples attention, regardless of this case possibly being fictitious, it doesn't make the phenomena fictitious.

Did anything of this actually happen in Nome Alaska or is everything made up ? Some sources say that something actually did take place there , some sources say that it was all viral marketing for the movie, using real name news-sources but faked articles/reports. /Regards.
