Abduct

I saw the film come up on Amazon movies and had a brief look at the reviews here on IMDB. I thought I'd give it a shot seeing as the runtime is just over an hour and the risk of wasting my time was low.

Given the minimal budget this film must have been made on, it's really quite good. A man, Chris, is with his girlfriend and some other friends at a house they have rented for a weekend. At night they see a green light and Chris later goes out on his own to investigate and disappears. The next morning a strange man appears and claims to be Chris. From that point you are left guessing what's going on - alien abduction, or something else?

I thought the script was well thought out. My only criticism is the reason behind the events that take place. I felt this aspect of the plot was very weak. We are also left wondering about the background of the person who instigates the events. A whole lot of backstory is missing, which certainly does not help with explaining the aforementioned reason.

Nevertheless, it held my attention and I didn't feel disappointed by the ending. There are many recent huge Hollywood films I can't say that about.

Summary: It's a green light for this little film.

Not low budget but no budget, this is just pure garbage. Everything about this movie is terrible and I can not advise enough to not watch it.

It's a cruel and horrible torture being subjected to this so called film. There is only so many words that I can use to describe this movie, there isn't much that can really be said besides, horrible, terrible, tortuous and so on and so on.

Do not watch this, run away in the opposite direction instead of wasting you valuable time on this piece of rubbish, steaming pile of warm excrement. Leave it outside in the cold and you will see the stream coming off of it.

I didn't expect much out of this movie, but nothing else looked appealing and at the rate I watch horror movies, to see a new film with any kind of appeal is a win.

This movie starts with the trope of the pals on a trip to unfamiliar territory (their friend's uncle's lush "cabin). Everything from that point forward is refreshingly non-formulaic.

Are the characters amazingly deep and nuanced. Nope. This is a movie that packs a lot of malarkey in a short amount of time (a mere 70 minutes!) in the best ways possible. All the *real* things that happen to the characters are sometimes far-fetched but not utterly unbelievable, while the central premise adds a comedic edge. This movie is a solid choice for when you don't want to turn your psyche inside out, aren't up for a 2-hour gore fest, and want to be entertained by a movie without pretense, that doesn't pretend to be anything but the crazy ride it is!

Not what I was expecting at all! Just honestly? I just found it to be a really, really good time.

People don't realize how hard it is to make micro budget films and when it's fun and it works and you're not bored? I thought the acting and directing was spot on and the director clearly put a lot of heart into this, even appearing in it! Films are beautiful, this is beautiful and weird and fun. Of course this is not going to feel like a studio horror, these are just a bunch of artists making their art. So I grade it on that scale as well. That's a 10/10 from me. Vibes. It's just a blast. Highly recommend.

I don't normally review movies although I'm very critical of them in my head to myself. This one was clever. It's only an hour and ten minutes and doesn't waste much of its runtime. I'm not gonna lie, I was confused at first, I may have blinked too many times. I feel like the plot was revealed a little early, however it made my confusion very brief. I don't know any of the actors and they done fairly well. Very well done on a seemingly low budget movie I knew or heard nothing about before tripping over it accidentally, looking for something completely different. It did not disappoint. And on a positive note: for a movie in 2025 I didn't have to muscle thru a bunch of political or ideologies to watch, which currently is next to impossible to find. Enjoy, I did.
