You will eventually discover how Diana applies to Sophie, but know it has to do with childhood, a mental institute, a skin disease, medicine, jealousy, and a lot of other backstory I probably zoned out during. (Deep breath) A maybe mentally-ill mother Sophie (Maria Bello) is talking to herself at the beginning, which is witnessed by her son Martin (Gabriel Bateman), but it’s soon discovered she’s actually talking to a creature named Diana, who kills her husband because he’s trying to help her. Instead of a taught little film about a mysterious creature haunting the protagonist in the dark, and that mystery providing a good majority of the horror, now it’s time to fill time in with explanations and backstory.Īnd I can assure you, you won’t give a crap about any of it. So they use the crutch that many horror movies use to fill time. It’s frustrating that there are moments of horror, but how much blah blah blah is slipped in between the scary moments.
So now the goal is to stretch an incredibly basic premise into at least 80 minutes. So James Wan, the king of modern-day horror, which is probably more a comment on modern-day horror, sees it and wants to turn it into a feature-length film. It was creepy, well made, and best of all… With each flick of the light, this creature would get closer and closer to them. In the short film, someone is turning on and off a light, and they can see a human-looking creature when it’s dark, but can’t when the lights are on. It was quite a little accomplished film, based on a very basic and intrinsic fear we all have: the dark.
I follow about 10-15 different Facebook horror pages (ladies?) and they all shared the short. The short film that the new horror film Lights Out is based on, which goes by the same title, hit the internet with some buzz in 2013.
