Embrace the truth and experience unrivaled terror. Yorkshire, 1974, the Maynard family moves into their dream house. It's a dream that quickly descends into a panic stricken nightmare as the family discovers a horrifying truth that will make the history books. The house is already occupied by the most violent poltergeist ever documented, a poltergeist that will tear you from your bed as you sleep and drag you helplessly into the darkness. As the attacks on the family become increasingly violent and terrifying, it becomes clear that the exorcism of the poltergeist will be their only chance for survival. Based on true events that occurred at No. 30 East Drive on the Chesterfield Estate, Pontefract, West Yorkshire. The subject of a plethora of research group studies, books and newspaper reports, this is the horrifying story of what really happened. (Revolver Entertainment)

When the Lights Went Out is a horror film about paranormal activity in a house. A horror film that is forgotten incredibly easily. It doesn't bring anything to convince the audience it's a good film, even though it's based on a true story. If it's overall rushed like this, it simply won't bring anything to the audience. The production doesn't work, the actors aren't compelling, and the plot is straightforward and clichéd.

The most annoying horror movie since We Are What We Are. Congratulations, that requires talent. With likeable characters, it could be an inoffensive average movie that you could forgive the lack of originality and scary scenes. But no. It’s impossible to express in words how unpleasant the characters are, all of them, without exceptions.
