Grey Skies

GREY SKIES was an unwise attempt at a science fiction thriller made by a group of amateur film-makers in Michigan. They shouldn't have bothered, because this alien abduction story is excruciatingly bad, and quite embarrassing to sit through.

The story is about a group of dull characters who hole up at a remote house in the woods and soon find themselves assailed by weird stuff going on. We're stuck with an hour of bad actors wandering around in the woods and occasionally screaming before the plot hits properly, but the budget is so limited that there are very few special effects and just lots of bright lights.

The acting is truly of a terrible standard and the plot events that play out are completely routine. In fact, there's nothing here at all to keep an audience engaged, so I can only recommend that viewers avoid it like the plague.

I cant even start to try and explain this so called movie. who is the black girl at the beginning you ask? dunno, you never see her again.. I feel as though I've lost iq points just finishing this crap. no plot, no story line, no direction, no nothing... only good thing is you get to see some pretty nice boobs...

I despise these artsy fartsy amiguous, confusing, bewilering, muddled endings like this one. When they do this, you feel you had 90 min utes of your life stolen. Despite reviewers saying the acting was bad, It wasnt. It was watchable. People tend to claim bad acting when they dont like the movie. The acting was ok. The last 5 minutes of this movie was unacceptable!! Intentionally confusing endings are from bad writers who cant end a movie. So for the muddled ending, i give it a 1

I happened to get the chance to sit down in 2020 to watch the 2010 movie "Grey Skies". Now, I hadn't even heard about this sci-fi horror movie from director Kai Blackwood prior to sitting down to watch it.

But hey, at least there were no expectations to the movie for me. So writers Mark Reilly and Michael Cornacchia had all the opportunities to impress and bedazzle me with "Grey Skies".

However, they just failed to do that. This movie, while it definitely had some interesting enough aspects to the storyline and the promise of something that could prove good, it just failed completely. The storyline was just too mundane and generic, and the movie suffered terribly from being way too predictable.

The characters in the movie were adequate, although it wasn't really characters that you invest anything in, for some reason. They had good enough actors and actresses to portray the characters, but there was just something about the characters that failed to make them pop out on the screen.

The special effects in the movie were bland. And that was sort of a massive setback for the movie, because a sci-fi movie needs proper and believable special effects.

In fact, I actually fell asleep for a short while during the movie. It was just that uninteresting.

My rating of "Grey Skies" is a mere two out of ten stars. Mostly because of the production value that the movie had.

The black girl at the beginning was part of the group that just vanished (when given keys last makes comment about it) Movie was very good, acting was good, would recommend.
