The Blair Witch Project co-writer/director Daniel Myrick is attempting to recapture the indie film’s magic with his new movie Skyman, which documents the story of Carl Merryweather, a man who believes he experienced an alien encounter at 10-years-old and is now trying to reconnect with the UFO at the same location. The film has been acquired by Gravitas Ventures.

Deadline reports today that Gravitas Ventures will be releasing Daniel Myrick’s UFO film Skyman in “drive-in theaters beginning June 30 and on demand the following week.”

“Skyman begins its story in 1987. Just days after his 10th birthday, Carl Merryweather rocked the local news community when he claimed he was visited by an extraterrestrial life form. Despite other alleged sightings reported that same evening, skeptical authorities shrugged off the claims. Now, almost three obsessive decades later, Carl (played as an adult by Michael Selle) is set on a mission to reunite with the being he calls “the Skyman” to not only prove the skeptics wrong but also ultimately find his own true sense of purpose.”

“I grew up in an era where the talk of UFO’s, Bigfoot and the ‘Devil’s Triangle’ were all the rage and was inspired by the personal experiences from so many people not unlike Carl Merryweather,” Myrick said in a statement. “Whether you believe in the legitimacy of these accounts or not, they reveal a deeper human truth that I find quite compelling and speak to the notion that so many of us are searching for something greater than ourselves – and I’m excited to finally bring a little bit of that mystery to the big screen.”
