Because of those elements and the occult, demonic villain, MOVIEGUIDE® advises extreme caution for LIGHTS OUT. LIGHTS OUT doesn’t have graphic or extreme violence, but there are a few gruesome, scary and intense moments and some brief foul language. There’s also a symbolic element of light casting out evil, which echoes what Jesus says in John 3:19 to 21. The characters do fight to protect one another, show courage and even display self-sacrifice.
As far as supernatural thrillers go, however, LIGHTS OUT fails to address the supernatural problem with a supernatural solution. LIGHTS OUT accomplishes something few horror movies do: find a way to be creative and suspenseful without gratuitous violence or lewd content. Rebecca and her brother must stop Diana before she kills them and others. Now, Diana’s spirit has attached herself to Rebecca’s mother. As Rebecca investigates, she learns her mother had a mentally ill childhood friend named Diana, who died. A young woman, Rebecca, tires to save her younger brother from a figure that lurks in the shadows of their mother’s home. LIGHTS OUT is a superbly directed horror thriller.
