Lights Out (2016)
Directed by David F. Sandberg
Quick Hit
Lights Out hits like a supernatural dread machineātense, dark, and leaves a bad taste on purpose.
Full Take
Lights Out leans hard into supernatural horror energy, and David F. Sandberg keeps the tone tense without letting the movie drift. The best parts are the confidence and control: it takes its time, sets the trap, then slams the door. Not flawless, but the swing is worth it.

This one actually worked for me.
Thereās a lot to like here, but also a lot that holds it back from being great.
This didnāt really land for me overall, but I can see why some people like it.

I liked pieces of Lights Out, but the pacing definitely wobbles in spots.
