Was the Fourth Kind Based on a True Story?

103 26
The Fourth Kind is a movie about Alien Abduction starring Mila Jovavich, which was released in November of 2009.
The film opted for an incredibly forceful viral campaign, in which it claimed to be based on true events that originated from Nome, Alaska.
While, there is some validity to the concept, it is only slight.
What really happened, is that a series of investigations were launched about a number of missing people in Nome and its vicinity.
However, after the investigations were concluded, the FBI determined that Alcohol and the Extreme Cold were to blame for the disappearance.
More importantly, if one looks up Dr.
Abigail Tyler online, you will find a single entry on the "Alaska Psychiatry Journal"; whose root URL is completely devoid of life.
A quick whois search reveals that the URL was actually only purchased two months before the release of the film.
It seems that the producers of the film didn't have the where-with-all to purchase this and fill it with some valid, yet misleading filler, if only to increase their viral capacity.
Also important, is the fact that Nome itself is misrepresented in the film.
Many natives describe that Nome is mostly made up of Alaskan Natives, not the white-washed cast you see in the film.
Also important is the fact that the movie portrays Nome being a lush yet cold, mountain valley.
People living in Nome describe it as a flat-land for miles.
So as a result, my final opinion is that the Fourth Kind is barely based on anything that happened at all.
I'm fairly sure that Abigail Tyler didn't exist, at least, not one who lived in Nome Alaska and did regressive hypnosis.
