Visit Films has released a trailer for an indie sci-fi adventure comedy titled Aliens Abducted My Parents And Now I Feel Kinda Left Out. This movie premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and I had a chance to watch it while there. This movie was silly ridiculous fun and you can definitely get that from the trailer. There were some things that I didn’t like about the film, but I’ll have a review coming out soon that gets into that stuff. There were just aspects of the story and the script that made absolutely no sense, but hey… it’s a kid’s movie!
The movie was directed by Jake Van Wagoner (Christmas Time, Studio C) and this is the synopsis:
“Teenage aspiring journalist Itsy is miserable when her family moves to the small town of Pebble Falls. Among the new challenges — a fixer-upper house and unfriendly high schoolers, to name a few — Itsy meets Calvin, her very strange, space-obsessed neighbor and classmate. Itsy befriends Calvin in hopes of writing an exposé on the oddball for a summer internship back in New York City, but she soon discovers that the amateur astronaut has an out-of-this-world secret. Calvin believes his parents were abducted by aliens, and it’s his mission to find and join them in outer space. As they endeavor to uncover the truth, the pair of outsiders foster a surprising and heartwarming friendship.”
The film stars Emma Tremblay, Jacob Buster, Will Forte, Elizabeth Mitchell, Kenneth Cummins, and Matt Biedel. There’s no release date set yet, but check out the trailer and tell us what you think!
