Rebecca must unlock the terror behind her little brother's experiences that once tested her sanity, bringing her face to face with a supernatural spirit attached to their mother.
My son Julian (13) and my lady Tammy, themselves two horror-film aficionados, and I went and saw this theatrically, and we were all quite pleased, though at least Julian and I tend to go for the classic stuff. Well worth checking out, if you're in for this sort of thing.
Although a simplistic and familiar theme is explored involving sinister forces tormenting a child in distress, Swedish director David F.

Sandbergs creativity and love of the story shine as he explores new innovative terrors and thrills throughout the film. It will make you want to leave the lights on while watching it! Great scares. Intriguing premise. Incredible effects. Lights Out demands to be seen by ...
