Synopses:
THE DEVICE:
Abby and Rebecca Powell haven't seen each other since a traumatic event in their youth ripped them apart. Reunited for the first time in over a decade, the sisters take a trip to spread their mother's ashes at a secluded lake. As the sisters reconnect and try to heal old wounds, something waits in the nearby woods. A strange object, made not by the hands of man, beckons them to it. As they begin to try to unlock its secrets, Abby is plagued by nightmares of an alien presence that seem all too real. Little do the sisters realize that this object is actually a device, one with a purpose too horrible to comprehend. As the events of the past and the present begin to merge, new discoveries will threaten to tear apart their newly reformed family, and the inhuman creators of the device will attempt to finish a terrible experiment begun years before.
THE MAURY ISLAND INCIDENT:
"The Maury Island Incident" is a short film based on a long-forgotten UFO encounter that happened off Maury Island, WA on June 21, 1947. This often-overlooked incident happened just two days before Ken Arnold's Mount Rainier sighting, which spawned the phrase 'flying saucers,' and 16 days before the infamous Roswell crash. It also included what is considered by many experts to be the first "Men in Black" encounter as well. Directed by Scott Schaefer and Written by Steve Edmiston.
