A news report outlining the efforts of the FBI to solve the case of 24 missing persons or suspicious deaths in Nome, Alaska (population 3500) appeared in the Anchorage Daily News on June 30, 2006. According to author, Tom Kizzia, these unsolved cases prompted an investigation, as a serial killer on the loose was suspected. Although nine of the bodies were never found, the FBI concluded that excessive alcohol and extreme weather conditions contributed to these mysterious deaths.
Locals of Nome, Alaska expressed concerns that the FBI investigations were based on information provided by the Nome Police and that no attempts to interview Nome natives were made, possibly ignoring vital information.
Whether there is a tie between the Nome, Alaska unsolved cases and those of alien abductions brought forth in The Fourth Kind remains to be seen, but it does shed some light on the possibility that this based-on-fact movie may have more to offer than a Halloween thriller designed for box office ticket sales.
A quick review of the movie trailer reveals that The Fourth Kind is based on archival evidence of alien abductions in Nome, Alaska collected by Dr. Abigail Tyler; however, there reportedly is no evidence that Abigail Tyler ever existed. It does seem reasonable that if she appears on screen with her face disguised, that such a person may exist with a different name.
Some claim that the fact that the movie was not filmed in Nome, Alaska discounts the validity of its claims of alien abductions. The Fourth Kind was filmed in New Zealand; however, it should be noted that many movies are shot in locations other than the original site, while portraying real-life events.
Until such time that some investigative reporter unveils the truth behind The Fourth Kind, whether or not the movie is based on real-life experiences of actual alien abductions in Nome, Alaska or is purely a work of fiction appears to be left for the viewer to decide.
One thing is certain. This controversial film has earned the attention of potential viewers and has set the Internet ablaze with speculation. Some speculate that the lack of evidence that Abigail Tyler ever existed is the work of a cover-up to distract viewers from the disturbing truth that aliens just might be abducting humans, while others contend it is the work of Hollywood attempting to seduce us mere mortals with frightening stories that have no basis in fact.
Are you ready to face the eerie possibility that alien abductions have and do occur? Mark your calendars and get ready for The Fourth Kind on November 6, 2009.

Post a Commentthere are many scientists and other people who devote their lives to studying these topics I just feel that we should get our information from better sources, such as documented events or from people (who there are actual records of) who were there to witness it, not from Hollywood movies.
ALWAYS BE OPEN MINDED ABOUT THE UNEXPLAINABLE BECAUSE NOT HAVING KNOWLEDGE OF SOMETHING MAKES IT HARD TO EXPLAIN... IT DOESN'T MEAN IT DOESN'T EXIST.
I don't understand why people are basing their beliefs in UFOs and other extraterrestrial life forms off of anything in this movie. All of the people in this movie are actors (including the ones in the "actual real footage"). It is not a documentary, it is a fictional story inspired by a few unexplained events. The best thing about this movie is that we all are now questioning it's validity and looking for facts to substantiate what they claim is a true story. So it has awakened our desire to understand things we can't explain and perhaps made us all a little more open minded to the unknown..
There have, however, been unexplained disappearances and claims of UFO sightings and abductions in Nome and everywhere else in the world for centuries. And, I believe that saying that we are the only intelligent life forms in the universe would be arrogant and naive. We should learn as much as we can about our universe and who or what else lives in it with us and there ar
Nome is tundra, not mountains and trees. 51% native eskimo, no paved roads, mostly ice and snow most of the year. this movies is a hoax, it was filmed in New Zealand and Bulgaria. I have been to Nome and the people there think the movie is totally bogus and hate the fact that the movie was based on it.
im speechlessssss :(
for example The Catatomb
This movie was actually filmed in Squamish, B.C. Canada
Patrica, You don't get it .... Our government HIDES all kinds of things from us... Like UFO'S. they won't tell us the truth. All other Governments from the UK, China, ETC... want's to tell thier people BUT is waiting for the U.S. to tell the truth. Our government does not want to loose control over us, many AMERICANS if told will change thier way of life like not paying taxs ETC.. We the people would say who now is in charge. are the aliens in charge! have they always been in charge!!! maybe! could be! or have the aliens been in control of our GOVERNMENT all this time. you dont know. Area 51 our government still today says there is no such place but yet we have proved there is such a place. Don't get me wrong I am proud to be an AMERICAN I just want our GOVERNMENT to be honest with us about these UFOS that have been seen by MILLIONS of people throught the U.S. and the world. we are not a bunch of STUPIED people Doctors, Lawyers, CEO'S, Governors, ETC... have co
@Pia!! First let me make a statement in reference to your hostile attitude for "AMERICANS". If all the foreign countries and governments were intelligent, evolved and mature then I guess we would not have to have our "military" babysit you or resolve your inhumanity. Secondly, theres a united government faction internationally known as the "United Nations(UN)" which is comprised of multiple countires, not only America. Third, if there are "Aliens" (which there are based on the fact any living organism foreign to our planet is classified as "Alien", including parasitic organisms)then how the hell would it be "America's" or "Americans" responibility to provide the answers. I am so sick of the Anti-Americanism and the attitude that we owe everyone or were to blame for everything. Americans do more good and its the truth based on the fact none of you have the guts to stand and fight for what we have achieved ins
i soo believe always have always will you will too when you expreince some thing like i did
Continue, DAY AND NIGHT SIGHTING MORE AND MORE OFTEN.
This is what I went through. every night for about two years, these beings are real and are from the pleiades system a planet named KYLOS. this is what was said to me from these beings, they spoke to me through thier minds and have been around before we lived on earth. thier so advanced we will never understand thier technology and how the are able to traval from thier planet to ours. our government won't ever tell us the truth because we do not know how to deal with this, and they are only here to gather human samples before the last days here on earth. Think about it, the Myan calander says 12-21-12 could bring such destruction to our kind we might not live through this, so these beings are trying to salvage our genetic makeup as humans and spead this to thier planet. they think we are a very stange spieces and is worth exploring.
Don't worry they
are not here to take over our planet if so they would have done this long ago. You will notice more and more often DAY AND NI
