The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

GREY SKIES was an unwise attempt at a science fiction thriller made by a group of amateur film-makers in Michigan. They shouldn't have bothered, because this alien abduction story is excruciatingly bad, and quite embarrassing to sit through.The story is about a group of dull characters who hole up at a remote house in the woods and soon find themselves assailed by weird stuff going on. We're stuck with an hour of bad actors wandering around in the woods and occasionally screaming before the plot hits properly, but the budget is so limited that there are very few special effects and just lots of bright lights.The acting is truly of a terrible standard and the plot events that play out are completely routine. In fact, there's nothing here at all to keep an audience engaged, so I can only recommend that viewers avoid it like the plague.

What do you expect from a movie that was put out right before DARK SKIES? Its miserably low budget, horrible acting, horrendous camera work (even for a found footage movie), and the script between the characters are just bad bad bad. However, the only reason I give this a 6 is for the simple reason of the scare factor. This movie did make me jump a couple of times and that is hard to do. The 'you know its coming' doesn't happen in this movie and suddenly you are freaked out. Other than that, I wouldn't necessarily watch this unless if you have another movie to watch.Putting this movie against DARK SKIES, its about 2 notches lower, but the jump tactics are actually better in this one than DARK SKIES.

I was surprised to see the low ratings for this film. I must say that I thought it was the best and (theoretically) the most accurate film of its class. It brought back some remnants of the literary work of Whitley Strieber. Without any of the hokey "found footage" film; the writers and director do an excellent job of evoking how a reasonable abduction might occur. Each of the characters were believable, though not fully developed. It didn't really matter how developed the characters were to make this work.What I do have to take to task is the results of the abduction. It took an outstanding film and made made it a great film. In the "less is more" category we didn't need to see what the aliens did. Moreover, it was pushing the envelop when the abductees left with a "puppet master" change of personality. This wasn't needed; and the shots inside the spaceship weren't needed and were probably an expensive cost.Good show!

Wow this is an awful film, I should congratulate the four or so other people that have also witnessed this abomination. I honestly cant believe this garbage had a budget of $1.5 million, seriously, should that be 1.5 million rupees? Did they spend all the budget on real cocaine that features in one or two scenes in the film? At a push this film could be made with 20k. Special effects consist of bright lights, an impact crash and shooting stars, honestly thats pretty much it... No spaceship as indicated on the misleading poster. For the first hour nothing happens, I guess its meant to be plot building or character developing but none of it makes sense. None of the characters are likable, they are all wooden and their dialogue is garbage. Its just an hour and 24 minutes of noise.. the director of this needs to go sit in a corner and have a word with himself. I wont go over the same stuff as other reviewers have, there are just so many parts that don't make any sense. One minute the cast are locking all doors and windows to keep the aliens out, the next minute they're beaming straight into the leaving room, the next the aliens are stuck outside, knocking on doors as if they are completely incapable of getting in there.... Seriously, why is there such a lack of consistency? Do yourself a favour, if you ever see this DVD, smash it, smash it with a hammer then put it in a pan and melt it down. I've had more enjoyment accidentally formatting a hard drive or picking super glue off of my hands. You've been warned lol
