Alien Abduction: Incident in Lake County1998

Horror Vault's take

Shot in the style of recovered home video footage, this pseudo-documentary follows a family whose Thanksgiving gathering turns into a night of pure terror after one of the sons ventures outside during a mysterious power outage and films something that should not exist. What starts as curiosity spirals into a desperate fight as an otherworldly threat closes in on the household. The faux-documentary format keeps tension uncomfortably grounded, blurring the line between fiction and plausible reality. It's a lean, slow-burn siege that trades big-budget spectacle for creeping dread.
