Lights Out (2013) is a very short horror film which immediately plays off of humanity's fear of the dark. In three short minutes, director David Sandberg created a fantastic horror short. He took a singular premise, fear of the dark, and created a grueling three minutes of tension without a single line of dialogue. There isn't much to say about a film that only lasts three minutes other than my heart was pumping for almost all of it. The beauty of this film is its duration. We have no time to find anything out, but that's okay. The movie is about being afraid of what runs around with the lights off. We don't have to know the history of the creature, nor do we need to know a thing about the victim. This is one of those movies that could give your child nightmares for weeks before you even knew they were watching it.
