Night Skies
On March 13th, 1997 one of the largest UFO sightings ever recorded took place across the southwestern United States...
Why it matters
A found-footage UFO horror that taps into real-world mystery to deliver creeping paranoia and cosmic dread.
- Grounded in the 1997 Phoenix Lights event, it turns a true UFO sighting into a slow-burn alien menace.
- Lean on atmosphere over gore—minimal effects, but a palpable sense of isolation and helplessness.
- For fans of The Blair Witch Project and The Fourth Kind who appreciate tension built through suggestion, not spectacle.
- Not flawless—some pacing drags and shaky cam fatigue—but it’s a low-budget gem that respects the genre’s roots in folklore and fear of the unknown.
