Alien Abduction DVD CoverOfficial Description: From the producer of Hostel and Texas Chainsaw Massacre comes a creepy and energetic found-footage thriller. This heart pulsing horror is based on the real North Carolina, Brown Mountain Lights sightings that date back to the Cherokee and Catawba Indians.

Young Riley is an autistic boy who uses his hand held camera as a coping device to navigate a big world.
