Kira recommends "Lights Out"

Lights out


My best friend and I are horror movie addicts, and we've watched everything from The Blair Witch Project to The Collector to REPO: The Genetic Opera to The Greenskeeper. Anyone who watches a lot of horror movie​s knows that they can range from cheesy to okay to amazing, and anywhere in between. This movie was at the latter end of the spectrum. There's not a whole lot of ideas that haven't been seen before in horror movies- evil creature comes through a ouija board, mentally ill child kills everybody, a demonic cult lies beneath an innocent-looking town- or, of course, a monster can only exist in the shadows, so you're safe until the lights go out. What makes this movie good is that instead of going down the same path that other horror films have already gone, Lights Out takes a new spin, and is genuinely scary. I won't ruin anything for you, but if you like scary movies, or even if you just want your blood to rush without blood and gore flying everywhere, this is a good, terrifying horror movie for you.
