yes I have to agree with Prisoner about this one. No mystery, you are looking at fiction.
Here are some key points. In the original movie (VHS) at the end of the movie they ran the credits. You know, the actors, writer, director, and the rest of the crew.
If you watch at the end, you can really see the cheesy special effects as the so called aliens walk out.
Hey I have an open mind to aliens, but unless the ET's landed and got into the movie business I would take this as a good experience in learning what hoax material is.
If, there are ET's, then they must be good at knowing how not to be seen during an abduction. In my humble opinion, they would not be so careless as to be caught in a cheesy home video.

I do know that movie producers will often release fiction and try and hoax the public that it was a true story.
For example, back in the early 70's they released a movie called " The Exorcist". The producers of the movie did a publicity campaign of trying to infer that the movie was based on a real story and so everyone who saw the movie believed everything they seen in the movie was actually how it really happened.
Hollywood lies, the public are gullible, and it is good for business profit. Politicians do it too.
However, there are some really kick ass books out there that are said to be of folks having alien encounters. I suggest that you read these books and view them much the same way as the movies. Some could be true, some are obviously false.
For example here is the link to a really kick ass ebook about a guy who claims he was abducted by a friendly alien and taken on a voyage around the solar system over a 24 hour period.
The ebook is called " A day in the life of an extra terrestrial" by Lou Baldwin
Its free to view and download.
It's easy reading. 
check it out, Let us know your thoughts if you read it.

it felt to me like it was stagged from the beggining, but as the movie progressed i felt like there might b truth. Also, im nearly positive that ive seen the guy who plays the dad somewhere else. Ya, appears to be actors. Its most likely just a good horror film. Kinda reminds me of the slender man.

As I live longer and longer, I too am starting to notice how actors can appear all over in the limelight of other events.
Problem, as I see it, is that we have become so accustom to getting all our reality from television, that we think what we are watching is real.
It shapes even our perception of History.
If you notice, the goal of the entertainment business, ie, television is to keep you afraid of your own shadow (murder..crime..war) so that people hide from the world due to mental exhaustion.
The most odd part about it is......Society tends to thrive on it.

I think that if they stopped for a day televising bad news, folks would panic and start jumping off buildings to their deaths. Lets face it, folks love to dwell in misery.

Perhaps you can point out where it identifies it as being real.
I have never actually saw anyone come into the public eye and state that this was a real event and offer evidence. If they had, it would make the Betty & Barney UFO abduction look like child's play. I would imagine that every UFO site would be highlighting this movie and event as a new religion.
Heck look at Billy Meier, all that guy had to do was take a few cake pans and a garbage can lid, make a fake UFO, take a few images with his camera :

He created a band of gullible followers like he was the New Christ come down from the Pleiadies.
Now like I said, if you think this story is real, I sure would appreciate seeing some evidence too.  Gives me something to ponder about when I smoke my pipe
This quote below is taken from your site link of that video. The description does not seem to suggest that it is real
Quote:
Staged Abduction 07:22 - 4 years ago A fake alien abduction recreation. This is the amateur footage of an alleged family's abduction by aliens. It's not real, just a bad quality demo that later was remaked as the Lake County Incident.

it says stagged, but the real truth is that it may be a real video of an alien abduction. At 2.08 min in that film when the aliens appear look at the length of the arms, big hands, the black suit, the big heads, the dark eyes.. The elbow and arms are very different and unproportional when compared to a human. Looks very much like this..
Notice the arms at 27 sec when it pans up..
similar to these photos too.. notice the arms

With all do respect, I did look at the video that you just put forth showing the alien type footage.
My fellow shroomer, I too at one time, at first glance would have been totally blow away seeing this footage and assumed it to be real.
Part of my educational background is in television and photography however it is more as a hobbyist and I claim to not be an expert.
The video, if it was being filmed by a professional photographer back then would not have looked like that. Think for a moment about those old silent movies from back in the early days of film.
It is what I am not able to see in the film that strikes me as rather odd, more than I would I from what I can see in the film.
If a professional cinematographer would have been making this video, he would have not filmed this with such poor lighting, or under exposed the film. The only lighting on the subject, the alien, seems to be using lighting from above from regular incandescent lighting. A professional photographer would have used additional lighting. After all when you go to a barbeque does the chef forget to cook the food properly? Neither would a professional photographer produce a movie with such poor lighting.

On film, the color and tone for incandescent lighting would not be that tone, nor would be be casting shadows that dark across the subjects face and particularly the eyes like that.
Specifically there is a very dark shadow that is totally unnatural for that lighting (3rd arrow down on the left).
I am always suspicious of video if it is not clear with good lighting and detail.
The final thing that really gives this video away is the shading around the outside of this image. This is a very common modern technique of using filters to get this aged effect.
Notice how perfect and uniform the "lens Vignetting" is around the perimeter of the video photograph ? A photographer notices lens Vignetting much the same way a autobody man spots bodyfill in a new car! That effect on this video is post production and has been put there as an effect. It's not natural.
Review the short video again and ask yourself if you recall ever seeing anyone take video or photos under room lighting and have that much shadow appearing around the eyes. Plus pay very close attention to the way the alien blinks. The eye lid does not completely cover the eye during the blink, which strikes me as rather odd. Seems the eye lid in the video is a human eye lid blinking, or so it seems to me anyway.
I am no expert as I say, and I don't really call myself a skeptic of UFO, or of ET's. I have no doubt whatsoever in my mind that this video is a hoax or fake. How is was done, I don't know. I just from my experience doubt that this is real.

This next photo is a comparison. I don't think it will take too much to draw a conclusion these two are not the same species of alien.
Assuming that all grays look alike ( just like how humans all look genetically the same) we are dealing with movie props.
My guess, we are looking at a scene or footage that probably hit the cutting room floor from a alien movie they were making.
Photos and movies are easy to fake, because the people who own the video control the evidence.
I would love to come across some alien images that would convince me, however to date I never have.
I've seen some interesting UFO's, and I favor that we are not alone, however I have learned that most of the stuff out there is fake. However keep searching, I do.
In conclusion, this is only my opinion, and that is all it is. Rather or not the information supplied is real or not, will ultimately rest of those that were the original ones behind the lens.
I have just learned to be skeptical of everything, until it is proven one way or another. Prisoner, helped motivate me to understand that.

sorry about that man...
it's a simple philosophy. apply what you know to what you see. be observant and look at the minor details. the things most people wont notice and that's exactly what you've done
