Every scene in this film contains, just the right amount of darkness and light, almost as if there are safe areas, and areas that characters should stay away from, and they’re often changing. In this film lighting is very much a storytelling device, and it is used perfectly. We often say lighting is a storytelling device, but in today’s films it's become less true the more formulaic films get. However, the writers and crew deserve credit for conceiving the idea of the film having a lot of darkness in it. At 81 minutes, not a single second is calm or peaceful, because the mere sight of sight of this creature is unnerving. That being said throughout this film the audience has to fear that this character could pop out of any dark space at any given time.

The most genius element of the film is the look of the creature that haunts this movie “Diana.” Diana is an all-black figure that lurks in the dark, and kills whoever threatens it. The biggest strength of the film is that the story is constructed in a way that the audience is always wondering if something will happen. Lights Out is often unnerving and sometimes terrifying, dark in look and tone, without feeling recycled or derivative. The film is yet another in a string of horror movies that uses diseases as allegories for its premise, and this premise alone is genius. Lights Out is often unnerving and sometimes Lights Out, is quite possibly one of the most visually and mentally scary films in the last two years.
