Sandberg is pretty good and I am interested to see what his other project is going to be as he’s certainly got a lot of talent and potential in this field. But Teresa Palmer is so good as she’s not only wonderful to look at, but gave quite a solid performance too. The child actor is quite solid and Maria Bello is so good as this troubled mother. The acting is very good and sometimes even great. Couple that with the obvious care that went into the production in terms of plot and detail and you’ve got one very effective and again competent horror feature. This is such a terrific premise beautifully executed with many very inventive action sequences.
#Lights out review plus#
The ghost only appears in the dark and never when there is light plus you can defeat it using said light. Lights Out is the kind of a film where you find the premise to be very interesting and authentic, but also wonder by somebody hasn’t done it before as it is an obvious plot device for horror. The originality is evident from the first moment. The last scene is heartbreaking and the entire film is very moving while also being for the most time pretty realistic owing to a sparse use of special effects and a terrific attention to detail in its storytelling. And, as I said, the emotion is palpable and so great. The troubled relationship between mother and son was very well explored and the maternity issues is the strongest theme here. The characters aren’t the greatest, but are solid nevertheless. The story is one of its strongest suits as it is really well crafted and pretty emotional. I admired this film’s plot and originality. It is a pleasantly original, competent genre flick.
Sandberg, produced by James Wan and starring Teresa Palmer. Lights Out is a 2016 horror film directed by David F.
