Lights Out is the feature-film version of the 2013 horror short also directed by David F. Sandberg. This is his first full length feature-film. Lights Out stars Teresa Palmer in the lead role who seems to be in everything these days. Most recently she was in Triple 9 and The Choice and she has a few other films that are post-production. She is a very versatile actress, and she is also very easy on the eyes. Definite plus. Lights Out is produced by horror master James Wan who has directed some fantastic horror films including 2013's The Conjuring. Even though Lights Out is rated PG-13 (sadly) it still looks very creepy and what I have seen so far has given me high hopes. Check out the trailer below. 

Not scared yet? You will be. Check out the official trailer #2 below.
