UFO: It Is Here
Ufo: it is here
Five film students are producing a documentary about the local zoo when suddenly the animals go berserk: The reason is a light ball flying by in the sky and crashing at the horizon. Convinced that they've just witnessed a meteor landing the students follow the trajectory to document the event with their camera. In a forest area they discover a burned crater. Since it's too dark to film they decide to spend the night in their van. The next morning one of them is missing. The remaining students find first a trail of blood and then the torn up pieces of what used to be their friend. Soon they realize that something is hunting them - something that's not from this world.
An indie found-footage thriller that captures the creeping dread of isolation and extraterrestrial menace with minimal means but maximal tension.
- Lean, stripped-down scares rooted in atmosphere and mounting paranoia rather than cheap jump cuts.
- A throwback to 90s and early 2000s sci-fi horror like *The Blair Witch Project* and *Dark Skies*, embracing the unknown rather than explaining it.
- Appeals to fans of micro-budget alien encounters who appreciate suspense over spectacle.
- Practical effects and naturalistic performances elevate the familiar premise beyond run-of-the-mill found footage.
