Alien Abduction starts off like "The Blair Witch Project" , with documentary style clips of interviews with local people recounting their tales of the strange lights seen in the area and mysterious disappearances on the woods. The rest of the film follows a family of campers as they venture up into the hills. The filming is done by the youngest boy (who is autistic), there are also 2 girls and 1 more boy. The family soon become lost and run out of gas. Stranded in a tunnel, they find many abandoned cars... then the aliens arrive. The CGI and sound effects during the abduction scenes are chilling and scary, and the whole quick, flickering filming style all adds to the unsettling **** film is perfectly paced, maintaining the tension throughout, and a mixture of great lighting effects and editing make the film genuinely scary, cover-your-eyes viewing. The first genuinely well-made found-footage horror since "REC" . I highly recommend "Alien Abduction"
