This is good for a scary movie at a pre-teen slumber party, but not much else. I will admit that I haven't seen the short that's mentioned, but I'm going to make a point to hint for it now. I will also say that this movie met my expectations/I wasn't expecting a total masterpiece. Most of this movie's issue is the concept. I will give cast and production credit where credit is due: David F. Sanberg and James Wan made the best that they possibly could out of the mud puddle of a plot. If you like far fetched plots on the same tier as Orphan and are not completely fed up by movies overdoing jump scares, you'll probably like this one.

Hi. I just saw an interesting horror movie called Lights Out. I can honestly say that the story was surprising and scary in the old fashioned boo sense. James Wan produced it and seems to enjoy haunted house movies...without the house being haunted from the start.

Probably the worst big-budget horror movie I've ever seen. It's basically "Scary Movie" without the comedy aspect. Imagine that.The characters are simple-minded idiots who make the single stupidest choice in every single dilemma they encounter. The monster has a set of rules, but never follows them.The movie is also riddled with derivative stuff that will make you cringe. It has zero originality and copied everything that came before but in a worst way.I give it 3 stars because the editing is good and the movie was able to screen in the projector at the theater. The rest is a train-wreck if I've ever seen one.This director is now in my list of banned director. People who I will never watch another from again. Take your place alonside Jason Friedberg, Aaron Seltzer and Uwe Poll please.

I enjoy horror movies, a lot, but not these melodramas mixing mental issues and supernatural. They lack the essence of a good horror movie which is to entice the audience in a psychological thriller to a point where you believe that what is going on the big screen could potentially happen when you go back to your house. Especially if you are American and live in one of those nice big houses. Ghosts usually do not pick Latin America houses. That's because they will probably have to haunt a studio place, where the living room is also the bedroom and there is one bathroom which in a standard American house would be a cat or do; g area. Anyway, my point is, this movie is a 5 or 6, it will scare you in a couple of scenes but that's it. As soon as you leave the theater, you will turn on your cell, check some e-mails, FB, and think of what you will see next time. This movie will definitely not stick only that when someone ask, you will probably say: "Oh yes, I saw it once". Please make the Sixth Sense sequal.
