In the film Avengers alien creatures are able to enter this reality through a portal created in the sky by a focused beam of energy fired from this side:
And Thor would travel no other way:

| The Destroyer comes to earth via sky portal |
We see a similar sky portal in Transformers: Dark of the Moon:
In War of the Worlds, Tom Cruise's character remarks that it is strange that the wind is blowing toward a storm that has just formed overhead. Of course their is nothing strange about air rushing into a low pressure center, but Cruise is a Scientologist. Scientologists have insider information regarding the supernatural and the purpose of the dialogue is a key factor to understanding what these vortexes are:
In Katy Perry's video for Dark Horse we see that a vortex is formed in the sky above the golden pyramid:
And who can forget the show that Norway put on for Obama when he received the Peace Prize:
I understand that the Norway spiral was probably something like a Russian rocket, but the timing of it is important and what they may have been attempting to symbolize is also important.
HBO is currently running a series called True Detective starring Matthew McConaughey (Cohle) and Woody Harrelson (Hart). The pair play two ex FBI agents who go their separate ways and eventually both end up working as private detectives who team up once again in the season finale to take down a ritualistic serial killer, Errol Childress. Errol (Latin for "wandering") is a curious name and it connects Childress with roylaty, as it is etymologically related to "Earl." In fact, Childress speaks with a facilitated British accent that makes one think of a depraved British royal. In the final episode Cohle and Hart track down Childress to his dilapidated Louisiana property where he lives with his sister/wife and sundry corpses. Errol flees to a labyrinth he has constructed in the woods where he worships a deity known as "Carcosa." Carcosa may be a reference to the accursed city of the same name in Ambrose Bierce's short story An Inhabitant of Carcosa, but the connection to the word "carcass" cannot be denied. What Cohle sees in Carcosa's labyrinth is the key to our story and also Errol's cryptic words. Speaking to his sister/wife, Errol states, "some mornings I can see the infernal plane." The infernal plane is also called the abyssal plane (as opposed to abyssal plain). It is the place where the angels who sinned currently reside "in everlasting chains under darkness."
In episode #2 Cohle hallucinates a spiraling flock of birds:
Errol's victims are found bearing spiral tattoos:
Cohle peers into a mass of twigs that has been twisted into a spiralling vortex:
As Cohle searches for Errol in the labyritnth, Hart knocks on the door of Errol's run down old house. When Errol's sister opens the door Hart asks her where he (Errol) is, to which she replies, "everywhere; all around us; before you were born and after you die" indicating that Errol has stepped outside of time and space into some place beyond our reality.
Cohle happens upon Errol's mode of transport deep in the heart of dark Carcosa:
You can see the random debris that has been picked up and is being circulated beneath the swirling portal. Cohle is not hallucinating. It's real enough.
