Why this film has been rated so lowly I cannot fathom. I was absolutely under its spell from start to finish. And I was very moved by it on more than one level. One of the best ET/UFO films I've ever seen, but also the human-drama aspects were extremely well done.
It's not really horror though; it is more of an intense mystery/ sci-fi/drama. The horror element is strictly human. I guess those wanting more traditional horror are disappointed upon watching that it's just not that kind of film. It's about family, grief, loss, woundedness, love and treachery...and the strange, vast, mysterious universe our lives play out within. I guess it is quasi sci-fi and far-fetched but geez Louise...it's still great film,-making!
