Lights Out (2016)

Might be decent.

I saw that trailer the other night and the first 20 seconds scared the **** out of me.

Just in case we decide not to watch the movie they told us the whole synopsis in the trailer.

At first I was sort of rolling my eyes thinking "wow, another blond in a horror movie" and "ooh, another americanized j-horror", but the mom talking to the kid, that **** creeped me out.

I think they had a difficult task of trying to establish this isn't like the other terrible J horror and K horror attempts from Hollywood. If I thought it was then the movie would hold no interest for me.

Sweet

That trailer the OP posted is actually the second official trailer. The first official trailer had quite a laughable intro. Check it out here, starting at 00:10 to 00:25...




How many times did she need to turn the lights on and off?

I thought this was going to be a movie about UFO

Just found out it's based on a short film. It's got 12M views on YouTube so I guess they wanted to acknowledge the fans because that woman does the same thing in the short. Watch it, if you dare!

Thought it was a boxing movie

looks too spooky. pass

I like this version

The scary lady is probably naked. Does that help?

I just watched this today and I doubt I'll ever watch it again. Stick with the short film and don't waste time with this one.

Watched this the other night and I agree that it was garbage. I did not like this at all. Just not scary.

did you guys watch this on daytime?

I literally watched the movie with my baby boy asleep in my arms.

It relied too heavily on the jump scare and needed a better [stronger] plot.

can nobody tell from the trailer that it's a steaming pile of garbage? Horror movies usually freak me out, but this looks like a film-school grad's first attempt at the genre.

so the creep only shows up in the dark....
common sense will tell you to stay in a place that doesnt turn off their lights.

like the airport, or denny's.

no, at night with the lights out. Lol. If it was the daytime it might have helped keep me from almost falling asleep.

oh I had low expectations. My wife always wants to watch scary movies and is a sucker for anything that comes out. Therefore I was stuck watching this with her. The only scary/horror movies I have enjoyed recently are both Conjurings, It Follows, and Don't Breathe
