This movie proved itself as one of many psychological horror/thrillers that, in the beginning, you wouldn't have guessed that it would come with a nice twisted twist! Don't want to be a spoiler so I feel that this film is a must see!! Especially if you're a fan of allowing your brain to enter a mind bender.....

Rarely can I handle shaky Cam Horror Flicks yet NIGHTLIGHT is 1) Well Acted 2)Suspenseful 3)Engaging The Negetative: NO Happy or even Neutral Ending! I do Not write Spoilers (and am Not going to write one now). Just say, if you want the Premise to be clear and have resolute at the end of your HORROR FILMS... NIGHTLIGHT will NOT provide that for you. It's creepy scary, in an unfamiliar woods with only flashlights. The actors, dialogue, darkened setting, and night sounds provide most of the Chills. Not an Alls Well That Ends Well feel. Pit in stomach sort of film, I am glad I hadn't viewed at night. Cannot say I recommend to anyone that's not a Hardcore Horror Fan. It's not visually "overtly graphic"... though it does contain some blood and gore. It's basically the knowledge that someone has perished, and the sound of that which is the creepy factor. So, watch if you root for "The Bad Guys" or want the unknown "The Things That Go Bump In The Night" to be victorious!

The Three Acts: The initial tableaux: There is a short do it yourself video of Ethan, a depressed male teen, discussing his failed suicide attempt, plus his attachment to Robin. We jump to five teens (Robin; Nia, Amelia, Chris, and Ben) starting a flashlight gaming night in the Covington Woods. The woods has a reputation as a place where teens commit suicide, and where ghosts reside. Plus, there is a scary church located within it. Delineation of conflicts: Robin has a job as a service person at an ice cream parlor. Nia and Amelia look down on employment. Robin is the newbie in the group, and the rest plan to haze her. Something in the woods does not like any of them. The plans for hazing seem to get replaced by other plans. Robin would like to live through the night and go home with her dog, but the wood seems opposed. Resolution: Elimination derby.

. . . (unless you count those portions of Texas covered by the compounds of David Koresh, Warren Jeffs, and all the other religious criminals yet to be burned out by the government). So it should be no surprise that NIGHTLIGHT's doomed quintet of Utah high school students cannot pray their way out of a paper bag (or, in their case, a haunted church and forest). One boy is unable to come up with the First Word of the Lord's Prayer when asked. The girl doing some of the asking prays to the dead leader of her high school's Satanic Suicide Cult, seeking an easy way out of her prom problem. Most of the "action" of NIGHTLIGHT is implied by sound effects and cell phone cameras juggled in virtual darkness. It makes one wonder why they even bothered with cameras at all, when the NIGHTLIGHT people were aiming for the feel of a 1930s-style radio play where the visuals were left up to the listeners' imaginations. The glop foisted off on the screen to the paying customer adds little. If you're Hell-bent on "seeing" NIGHTLIGHT, don't expect to be able to decipher anything on tiny phone, tablet, monitor, or TV screens. Just wait until it comes out on IMAX.

Heading out to a supposedly cursed woodland area, a group of friends find the claim that a demonic presence lurks in the woods to be true when they happen upon a terrifying force in the area and must find a way of getting out alive. For the most part this one was a highly enjoyable and exciting effort. What really works so well throughout here is the absolutely incredible atmosphere throughout this one as there's some thoroughly suspenseful and creepy moments in here that work due to the fantastic idea of how this one plays out. Playing up the haunted forest aspect incredibly well as there's just nothing at all wrong with the early set-up here, it goes from the early exploits of their games and camaraderie together with just the slightest hints that something's wrong with banging noises in the woods or animal howls off in the distance only to continually prove that nothing malicious is out there only to then suddenly turn that into a rather terrifying and enjoyable feature once the horror starts in earnest. Though there's some early fun here as it sets up the fact that there's something in the woods with them, once it showcases what's out there the film really kicks up with an impressive series of scenes as there's all manner of chases, confrontations and generally creepy encounters here that are immensely enjoyable and entertaining. There's plenty of utterly suspenseful times here, with the encounter with the boyfriend out among the rocks overlooking the cliff and the group in the woods where the falling tree nearly crushes them come off the best though the absolutely chilling sequence where they are followed by the unseen force turning on the motion-activated lights behind them which gets closer and closer while they wait for it to appear which it does in a rather chilling and startling effect, and the finale in the church is an absolute stand-out as well as the creaking wood and ominous foot- steps continually getting closer lead to a rather chilling finish. This leads to plenty of high-energy action along the way here with this one getting the dive into the underground caves or the attack on the abandoned car in the middle of the woods being superb stand-outs that really sell this one quite nicely and makes for another highly-enjoyable part of the film to go along with all the utterly chilling encounters. Though the found-footage aspect, given a more intriguing spin here as actually being framed from the lights of the their equipment instead of a video-camera as per usual, still comes with the rather tired antic of having the out-of-focus shaking visual trick that renders a lot of scenes really hard to make out what's happening and there's little thought into what's going on here as the story makes no sense, these here are really all that keep this one down. Rated R: Graphic Language, Violence and Brief Male Nudity.

A lot of people hate found footage movies but I love them. This one is not the worst one or the best one. Just somewhere in between. Overall I liked it. Whole movie is set in a deep forest in total darkness so it does have an eerie atmosphere from the beginning till the end. Plot is nothing special just an excuse for some dumb teens to go into the woods and get in trouble. However, unlike other Found Footage movies, this one has little twist in the end which gives us a whole new reason behind this being filmed as a found footage movie. Acting is okay. There are few jump scares, none of which will make you jump if you watch horror movies often. In the end, I did like it but obviously, could have been better. If you love found footage movies, give this one a try.

Boring. Insipid. Uninspired. Banal. Inane. I will, certainly, run out of adjectives before I can adequately communicate how bad this movie is. First of all, the entire movie is shot from the perspective of the girl's *flashlight*. It is slow, with long pauses when there is nothing in the view of the flashlight. I started the flick and, four hours later, when I checked the time, 20 minutes had passed. I never thought I would find a movie less intelligent and/or less cohesive than Blair Witch Project, but this one is it. Don't expect any kind of explanation for what few doings there are in the movie. There is no message, no moral, no plot, and not one single, solitary thing to recommend about this film. Nothing. Bottom line: Don't waste your time, tape, or HD space.

this movie definitely wasn't as good as I thought it'd be... But it wasn't terrible. I thought the idea for the movie was really neat, and it was very jumpy at a lot of parts. It didn't scare me like I wanted it to though. It was also kind of hard to follow, it jumped around a lot. But all in all. It was an okay movie. the way it was shot was annoying to me. the actors did pretty well though. cool idea, but definitely could've been better The beginning was the best part. I'd say it's worth watching :) Just don't go in thinking you're gonna be real scared

This is yet another one of those found footage movies and another that his set in the woods well we have a number of kids heading into wards woods to play night light. Well I never herd of that game before, you know story,. The kids are having fun , playing games and for while and soon then later , they all end up getting separated and bad things start happen then. This movie need to be lot clear , what heck was going, I did really no what was actually happens not that it was dark or anything, I was not to sure if it was ghost , wild animal or what ever at times and why ever it was , you don't really get see much of it at all. I did not like how the movie was edited as it felt like spent too much time on just two people and they met they maker and then they decide to show other two people we had not see for about 30 min I assumed they dead way before they reappeared as they were off screen for far to long. Well the main thing , this movie add nothing new, found footage , same old same old. The acting was not that good wither 4 out of10
