The Signal, one of the best alien abduction movies out there, is available to stream on Netflix.
“How do you tell a new alien story? You can’t approach it from a horror movie perspective, that’s been done to death. A story where the aliens from classic sci-fi stories are real?

It’s called the Hong Guang Mini EV, and one of its major selling points is the fact it only costs $4,500 (or $5,000 with air conditioning).”
