The Imposter (2012)
7/10
Creepy, thought provoking documentary - I would love to see this as a movie
25 November 2014
This started out a little dry and then got progressively creepier. Filmed as a documentary with interviews from family members and "the imposter" himself; a missing teen from Texas is found alive in Spain and returns home after nearly 4 years.

However several people question his real identity and then things get really freaky. Initially his family is overjoyed, the boy bears many of the same distinguishing marks he always had, but why does he now have a strange accent and look so different? And why doesn't the family seem to notice? And then an investigator starts asking questions.

The ending of this and the questions it provokes were a big Wow. This story needs to made into a movie because you just can't make this kinda stuff up. 11.13
