Review Summary

Travis Walton, Mike Rogers, Allan Dallis, David Whitlock, and Greg Hayes, were one day working as usual in the woods cutting down trees, and were attracted to a light, and Travis uncontrollably went out of the car and was shot at with a beam of light, scared for their lives, his friends ran away, assuming Travis died. When they decided to go back, Travis was no where to be found, and the town assumed that Mike Allan, David, and Greg had killed their trustworthy friend. After weeks of looking for Travis. Travis was found in a gas station phone booth. Trying to get life back to normal, Travis had flashbacks of being in an alien space ship, and having tests upon him by extra terestials.
