"It was with crushing disappointment that my research discovered this is all made up out of whole cloth, including the real Abigail. The film wasn't even shot in Nome, but mostly in Bulgaria. And Dallas Massie, a retired state trooper who's the acting police chief in Nome, says he's heard nothing about aliens.
I learn all this from the blog of an Anchorage Daily News reporter, Kyle Hopkins, who says about 20 people have indeed disappeared in the area since the 1960s, and writes: "The FBI stepped in, reviewing two dozen cases, eventually determining that excessive alcohol consumption and the winter climate were a common link in many of the cases. Some of the dead were killed by exposure or from falling off a jetty into the frigid Snake River."

The film's trailer states that the story is based on "actual case studies," but did not specify any cases. As a result, much speculation has arisen regarding the search for documented evidence from the actual cases and whether Dr. Abigail Tyler is a real person or a fictional character for use in an internet viral marketing campaign.
On September 1, 2009, an investigation by the Anchorage Daily News examined the validity of the film's premise, and its relation to actual disappearances that have occurred in and around the town of Nome. The investigation found no specific events to back up the claims in the film and also revealed that unsolved deaths in Nome are no more frequent than any other small Alaskan town. The consensus is that the high rate of alcoholism combined with the harsh landscape surrounding Nome accounts for a majority of disappearances (just as in other remote areas).
On November 12, 2009 Universal Pictures agreed to a $20,000 settlement with the Alaska Press Club "to settle complaints about fake news archives used to promote the movie." Universal acknowledged that they created fake online news articles and obituaries to make it appear that the movie had a basis in real events.

The Research of Melinda Leslie:

Melinda Leslie's research into the military or intelligence covert-ops reverse engineering of extraterrestrial abductees, also known as MILABs and RE-ABs in ufology, is redefining both the UFO cover-up and abduction paradigms by showing that the military-industrial management of extraterrestrial related information and technology includes the monitoring and re-abduction of alien abductees.
She finds that just as covert-ops personnel gathers and reverse-engineers ET craft, they also gather and reverse-engineer abductees – and for the same reason; furthering development of secret advanced programs and technologies and control of the information.
Her research shows that covert-ops military personnel surveillance, re-abduct, and interrogate abductees to gather information on ET motives, ET genetics, ET technology, and abductees’ psi (paranormal) abilities.
She investigates the newest developments, cases, evidence, and detailed experiences of the abductees involved. Additionally, Melinda feels strongly that her research demonstrates why there can't be an official UFO disclosure without addressing the abduction phenomenon.
The late Dr. John E. Mack on MILABS from an interview by Melinda Leslie:

“…I have cases I’m working with particularly in some depth where military involvement has been very important, disturbing, ongoing, and complicated. I have others that have seen military people as well…The person feels they’re being menaced in day-to-day life by black helicopters, MIBs, men in uniform, and people in dark cars…This is not like a regular feel…abductees are transported to some underground place…
There is some relationship, some kind of communication and collaboration between certain extraterrestrial beings in this underground place and the military people. The abductees are in some kind of intermediary role between these (covert-ops) types and the beings…” in some kind of intermediary role between these (covert-ops) types and the beings…”

There is NO question that it is a hoax. For anyone to think otherwise makes me question just how silly human beings really are. I actually thought they did a half-assed job of the 'real' footage, it stank of hollywood all over, i am always surprised to hear that someone has taken this movie seriously.
In the 'real footage' however, i know there are some pretty spectacular actors out there, but i've never seen a 'class B' actor pull off the look of fear that i saw.
