After witnessing a mysterious train crash, a group of friends in the summer of 1979 begin noticing strange happenings going around in their small town, and begin to investigate into the creepy phenomenon.

JJ Abrams and Steven Spielberg on the same movie, I didn’t know what to expect but I expect my mind to blown away by the crazy movie they put together secretively over the past few years. I few trailers that I saw said very little and all we knew is that it revolved around some sort of Alien in the 1970s and kids get involved. I was expecting a scifi filled movie with things being destroyed to oblivion and getting shocked with what Abrams and Spielberg had in mind. Instead it took a slightly different route, something I wasn’t expecting and honestly not as good as I hoped it to be. It was well made movie and you really did feel like you were in the 70s but because it was so secretive I just had higher expectations for it.
