The Movie, “The Fourth Kind”: A Case of False Advertising?
Author: Dr. Blinston // Category: MoviesOn a paranormal group to which I belong (Paranormal Place—Check it out!) a member responded to a message I posted regarding the movie, The Fourth Kind. She noted that the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) indicates that the movie is fiction. I had been wondering how I could not have heard about something as significant as the movie makes this series of events out to be. I believe myself to have substantial connections and am usually quite well informed, so it now makes sense why I didn’t know.
Several people in-the-know concerning abductions posted on social networks that the hypnosis sessions were nothing like those with which they were familiar. I agree that the hypnosis sessions are not “normal” in such cases, and that is why my first thoughts turned to mind-control, because that is what it would clearly be—that or negative entity possession. In addition, there were so many aspects of the film that didn’t make sense and I immediately wanted to start doing research. Thank you, Deidre (group member), for bringing this to light. I, of-course will look into this more, but it is extremely helpful to know that the MUFON folks are putting it out there that this is fiction.
I wish more people knew or will be informed that it is fiction. Now I am thinking that the powers that be are using this film as a sort of mind control to instill fear in people concerning ETs. What a crying shame!!
As for the producers and all who were involved in the making and marketing of the film, James Frey was nailed to the cross for exaggerating the truth in his “memoir,” A Million Little Pieces. The people who purchased the book sued Random House (the publisher) and won! Random House and James Frey paid out over $2M. It seems to me that people spent their money on theater tickets due to the advertisement that this film was a true story—non-fiction. In my business law class we were taught that such claims, used to lure consumers, are “False Advertising,” and unless things have changed since the 1990s, that is against the law, besides spreading fear, and well, major crapola. Hmmm…
