This independent film tackles the alien abduction scenario with a great deal of success. Kevin, who has been abducted by gray aliens since he was a child, gets a vasechtomy even though his wife desperately wants a child. He subconciously knows what may happen to the kid-abduction or something far worse. Anne Marie, nearly full-term pregnant, has a cheating husband, who we later find out is cheating on her for payback because he knows he can't have children--and therefore didn't get his wife pregnant. Aliens did. As memories of the alien abductions resurface these two, who eventually meet because of the circumstance, realize they've known each other since they were children when abducted together on the saucers. There are also government agents keeping an eye on the duo, decent effects kept to a minimum. Director Jeff Forsyth opts for solid performances and a character driven indy film that towers above its exploitive counterparts.
