The Scarefest is not yet over this year with the introduction of the Horror-Thiller "Lights Out". This movie stars Theresa Palmer, Gabriel Bateman, and Maria Bello. Based from the title, it deals with something scary in the dark. And it already getting under our skin.Lights Out is surprisingly a low-budgeted film but was able to use its resources well. With many of us already fed up with supernatural concepts, it stands out to be unique yet still pay homage with thrills that actually made people in the cinema jump out of their seats screaming.
The supernatural being here is also something new as it lives in the dark. Day or night it can actually attack the people who is linked to "her" past. It is directed by David F. Sandberg and produced by Lawrence Grey, Eric Heisserer, and James Wan (The Conjuring 2).
