All Reviewers Missed the Point!, July 9, 2007
My gosh! I read all the reviews to this film... and then I bought it nontheless because I KNEW this was a Christian film with a message. Duh! It is a CHRISTIAN film, for crying out loud. I read the reviews and one would think it was a Hollywood type gone beserk or something.
But then again, I guess this is what people think Christians are: loonies. First off, the film makes no pretenses about where this is going. Secondly, it has a Christian message to all, whether one likes it or not, you will be on the side of Jesus or you are not. Plain and simple. The UFO phenomena is so strong and so delusional that unless you see it for what it really is, demonic activity, you miss the point of the film.
Rich Christiano has been putting out some decent movies of late and are getting better. He may not have the big budgets of Hollywood movies... and believe me, if he had the $80-$100 million budget, whoa! this would rival any big time Hollywood movie.
The film itself could lend to some better dialouge or even a "heftier" plot but its main message is that UFO is just demonic activity to delude people into believing what they want to believe and not wanting to be held accountable to the truth. The truth is that we need Jesus to get to Heaven. Period. Most will not like my review but I am not here to win a popularity contest with all you "intellectual" types or "real" film critics. I am here to tell you that this film was excellent in bringing its timely message to the masses. This world is going through a major delusional period that is so strong that even some Christians could be even deceived.
This film has merit and is based on what is going on today. The acting was really better than one would expect. The story is certainly credible. I applaud Rich Christiano for putting this forward. I can't wait for his next project!

Great Family movie with a message, September 21, 2007
This review is from: Unidentified (DVD)
This movie was gripping from beginning to end. The non-believer in the movie actually got the message! Great apocalyptic or end of the world/time movie. It's a Family movie. If you liked, "Time Changer" you'll like this one. It's one one of the few Christian/Family movies that are SciFi based. Great musical score for the opening credits. I plan to buy a copy to show to all my Family and Friends. Recommended.

have the bad reviewers really seen the movie?, June 28, 2008
I'm a CHRIST follower, AKA born again Christian. I will be the first person to agree that a lot of the early christian movies and even some today have low quality about them. Usually being a low budget film the makers have little to work with, but that's not why the movie is made. It's being made to get people to think about their eternal destiny. The reviews that complain about this movie seem to either not really seen it or if they saw it seem to miss certain points the movie has in them. A review claimed the people abducted were not shown to be involved in the occult, witchcraft, drinking, etc. The movie said or someone close to them is involved in the occult or witchcraft. Nothing is mentioned about drinking?? One last thing, do I hear a sigh of relief from the ones who didn't like the movie?? The 2 reporters one was a confirmed non-christian but the other as the review said was fence-sitter who isn't sure if he should accept Jesus as his Savior. But in the movie he had accepted Jesus as his Savior at a young age, but his faith was being shaken because he had'nt allowed Jesus to be part of his every day life. I consider this to be one of the better christian movies, Dave & Rich Christiano, keep cranking them out!!!
