So, 'Lights' is this low-key sci-fi flick from 2016 that really leans into the eerie side of storytelling. It revolves around Kurt's mysterious vanishing during a camping trip, and a year later, his girlfriend Lisa is still grappling with that loss. The pacing is a bit slow, but it builds this unsettling atmosphere that kind of creeps up on you. There’s a retired sheriff character who adds an intriguing layer to the plot as he tries to help Lisa uncover what really happened. The practical effects are minimal but effective, contributing to the film's grounded feel. Performances are decent, particularly the emotional weight Lisa carries throughout. It’s not flashy, but there's something unsettlingly compelling about its exploration of grief and the unknown.
