While “Night Skies” offers an engaging premise tied to the enigmatic Phoenix Lights, it struggles with pacing and character development. The special effects and makeup work commendably create a sense of unease and dread, but the movie’s execution falls short in fully realizing its potential. The acting delivers in moments of tension, yet overall character engagement could be stronger. It serves as a decent watch for enthusiasts of UFO lore and sci-fi horror, but may not leave a lasting impression on others.
