Variety
The relative restraint of keeping any supernatural creatures and most violence just offscreen works well to maintain suspense. It’s too bad Beck and Woods didn’t exercise equal caution in the dialogue department.

Like a flashlight that's running low on juice, you can feel the life oozing out of Nightlight with every faint flicker.

Nightlight is a perfect example of a film with interesting ideas that are totally smothered by poor execution.

Filmmakers Scott Beck and Bryan Woods water down the element of surprise, even if they get the found footage shtick down to a science.

A spare trifle carried largely by its leading actress.

The movie is actually better than what I was **** acting was not bad, the"camera" was not too shaky and the creators had a good original idea but they transformed it into a cliché horror teen **** movie is actually frustrating at parts because the deaths are not shown,sometimes the characters say that they should not go in this place but they go there anyways,and at one moment one of the characters steps in a bear traps and hurt herself and say that she can't run because she's injured but later in the movie her injury magically **** the end it is an entertaining cliché horror movie like every other else.
