User Review
Try this if you like UFO movies.
Rating:
"Fire in the Sky" can be appreciated only if you are into UFO movies, and if
you like scary alien abduction scenes. The film is based on the allegedly
true story of Travis Walton's alien abduction. After seeing the film, and
becoming extremely interested in the subject, I read the book by Travis.
Reading it, I found out that the abduction scene was changed in the movie.
Whether what happened in the book was real or not, the change in the film
was good, because those ten minutes of abduction scene are, quite possibly,
among the most frightening pieces of footage in film history! I couldn't go
to sleep for a month after that. It was tough to deal with. I recommend it
because I know that there are some of you out there who like UFOs, and like
a good scare!
