Along the lines of Fire in the Sky, Communion and the Fourth Kind. Am open to documentaries too.

Something about Alien abductions / Gray aliens have always sent a shiver down my spine.

There aren't a lot of good ones. Fire in the Sky is the best.

The Found Footage movie Alien Abduction is OK and has what I consider the 2nd best scene in one of these movies ever (behind the obvious one in FITS)

The one with Keri Russell was....OK

This is about the reality. Not a lot of legit alien abduction horror out there that is worth a damn.

No One Will Save You is exactly what you’re looking for. It’s on Hulu. Been a few years but remember it being scary and tense and kinda weird

This, the trailer freaks me out, aliens are the only things that scare me.

There’s something inherently frighting and violating at the thought of waking up to a gray in your room standing at the end of your bed

Altered (2006) is a bit of an inversion of abduction movies - some friends/rednecks basically abduct an alien for revenge. It's probably more of a B movie but it was a fun watch.

Ejecta (2014) is a bit of a hodgepodge film - partly found footage, some POV action, and then partly interview (maybe they ran out of money for the others?). It's a bit different and lesser-known but maybe it'll interest you. Sadly, it feels a little half-baked compared to some other films.

Yup. Me too. Right up there with Chucky running down the hall, but I was a lot younger then. My parents rented it apparently not knowing it was a horror movie somehow. I couldn't sleep for a week after watching Child's Play.
