So how much of it is actually real?

None at all dude, except for the fact that some people have in the past gone missing in Nome, but in nearly every case they found the explanation, and it was never aliens.

I really wanted to like this movie, but I think this is why I didn'tdon't try to BS us into thinking there's anything "real" about this movie!
UFOs are already belittled by so many, this kinda crap doesn't help. -

So should we not like all movies that purport to be real? Well there goes all the Paranormal Activities, Blair Witch, Cloverfield, Fargo and many many others. Dammit.
^^LOL, this!

None of it was real. All of it was faked footage because they wanted to do a Blair Witch kind of film but with aliens.
I just wish they had hired better actors to do the footage.
The film had some good ideas, but it all collapsed with the hokey "documentary" footage they used. And they could have been up front with the fact that it was fakewink, wink. Then no one would have exploded into rage at it. But whatever. -

I knew the whole thing was a Blair Witch thing from the get go, I just wanted a good horror film to rent. I just wish they had expended a little more energy in making the "documentary footage" look as good as the rest of the film.
Did you read the rest of this board? People screeching that it isn't a "real" story. -

I just don't understand this movie at all. Did the director NOT think we would find out it wasn't real? Why would he choose to show
two side-by-side versions of a fictional movie?
Was he really trying to fool the whole world that this was actually a real story? Did he think that the split-screen would really be an effective way to convince us?
Because all we get is two completely fake, acted versions of the same horror movie one is just done in a more "realistic" style. I mean, what a horrible, horrible gimmick. The entire time you're watching this, the gimmick takes you 100% out of the movie,
because you know it's fake.
It's just a terrible idea. It's a terrible idea for a feature film. It could work as a ten-minute short film. Stretched over a full length movie, it's absolutely awful. -

Well, Art Bell is constantly abducted by aliens, so it MUST be true. And Paranormal Acitvity (whose 1st film was a hit at the EXACT same TIME!) is ALSO based on a true story.

nah, man, they went WAY out of their way to try to make it seem real. I member when it came out there was the whole website and all that BS.
Blair Witch did the same thing, true. But they didn't do the "here's the real doctor" and all that BS.
Just make an alien abductee movie, don't try to pass it off as real. -

Im willing to bet that because the director did it this way, 30%, maybe more, of people who saw this movie think its real.
Having Milla Jovovich in it, would be a dead give away that its not real.
Most people would know who she is, not only because of the Resident Evil movies, but also because of The Fifth Element.
