Hey what’s up guys
Today I’ll show you a supernatural horror film: “Nightlight”
Spoilers ahead, watch out and take care
The movie begins with a recording of Ethan, a high schooler who likes his best friend Robin
He tells the camera that he has tried to kill himself by overdosing on antidepressants;
but he failed
This time, he plans to kill himself in the nearby haunted forest
Ethan shows a matching keychain that Robin gave him
He plans to ask her to the high school homecoming dance
A few months later, Robin goes to the haunted forest to meet with her friends
She heads to the meeting spot with her dog, and gets nervous about meeting Ben, her crush
Robin meets up with Nia and Amelia
She asks about Ben, but gets teased by Nia, who secretly likes Ben too
Nia takes Robin’s flashlight, and asks her if she likes Ben
but Robin denies it strongly
Ben and Chris also arrive
With the group complete, they start going deeper into the woods
Robin cuts her hand on a barbed wire fence, but manages to pass safely
While crossing a river,
Chris and Nia suddenly remember that Ethan killed himself in that very forest
They make fun of Ethan for committing suicide, and hurl insults at him
They find a set of train tracks, and fool around
Chris drops his flashlight, and runs away from it
He rushes back to it, then tags Ben who does the same
Amelia and Nia follow; but Nia stays longer to let the train catch up to them
After tagging Robin, the train appears in the distance, and quickly catches up to Robin
Robin barely manages to dodge the passing train
While the group continues walking into the forest,
Chris tells them that the forest messes up with any flashlights inside it
Suddenly, their flashlights start flickering
Convinced that demons are causing their flashlights to get messed up,
Chris removes the batteries on his flashlight,
and tells them that the demons will turn the lights on for him
He walks backward; and his flashlight turns on even without batteries
The light abruptly disappears; but eventually turns back on; and Chris returns to the group
A branch falls from above
but Chris stops in time to save himself
While walking, Chris tells them that when the demons possess you,
you start feeling sleepy, and lose all sense of who you are
Chris warns them to never enter the old church in the forest,
because the spirits inside the church will possess them
Once they get possessed, the demons will force the body to jump off a cliff
He warns them to never write their name in the forest, and that light attracts the demons
Nia shrugs off Chris’ warnings
They play truth or dare; and Chris starts making a move on Amelia
They play a few more games, before finally deciding to play the flashlight game
Robin gets blindfolded, and starts getting nervous
Ben comforts her, and tells her the rules
After counting to one hundred, Robin will remove the blindfold,
and look for the other players with her flashlight
When giving up, Robin has to shout “nightlight ” for the other players to reveal themselves
Ben leaves, and only Robin’s dog is left
Suddenly, her dog starts barking, and backing away from an unseen force
Robin takes off her blindfold to comfort the bad-tempered dog
She grabs the flashlight, and starts looking for her friends
She sees a flashlight in the distance,
and tells the person that she sees them, and that they are out
The light suddenly turns off; and Robin hears someone running away
Unsettled by the forest’s ambiance, she shouts out “nightlight”
After regrouping, Ben and Robin exchange flashlights
Robin tells Ben to take care of the flashlight, since it was given to her by someone special
Nia offers her own flashlight to Ben
but he declines the offer
The group finds a dead animal; and Nia blames Robin’s dog
Shortly after, Ben is blindfolded; and the group hides
Like earlier, the dog backs off, when it sees something beside Ben
While counting down, a branch falls behind Ben and scares him
He bravely continues counting
but a shadow appears in the distance behind him; and the flashlight is knocked over
He calls out to his friends, but there is no response
Ben removes his blindfold; and the dog starts barking loudly
While looking for the others, he writes his name on a tree despite Chris’ warnings,
and even taunts the forest, asking it if it wants his autograph
Ben hears a loud metal clank near him and investigates
He finds a triggered bear trap
All of a sudden, his flashlight starts flickering
He finds a trail of blood, and a dead pack of wolves beside it
Finally, he gives up and shouts “nightlight ” but no one responds
He climbs up a cliff to get a better vantage point, but hears someone approaching him from behind
He turns around, but no one is there
Suddenly, the demon appears and rushes at him
Ben gets pushed down the cliff with the flashlight, and dies
Meanwhile, Robin and Nia are separated from Chris and Amelia
Robin asks Nia to come with her and look for Ben
but Nia is too lazy
Nia is frustrated that she is stuck with Robin, who she clearly dislikes
Nia asks Robin if she knew Ethan
She asks if Ethan meant to kill himself, when he went to the forest
However, Robin quickly dodges the question, and leaves to look for Ben
Robin tells Nia to sit still and wait for her
Robin later finds Ben standing in the distance
Unaware that Ben has really died, she tells him that they have been looking for him
However, the ghost Ben only walks away
Robin is confused, and follows him
She tells him to stop messing around; but her flashlight starts flickering
Robin ends up in a grave, filled with crosses
Light starts flashing on and off in the distance
She shouts that she doesn’t want to play the damned game anymore
The flashing lights lead her to a dark cave
Inside, she sees the light and hears laughter
She walks deeper into the cave, and finds Ben’s flashlight flickering on its own
A swarm of bats attacks her; and she rushes out of the cave
While looking back, Robin sees the demon chasing her
She finds her dog outside the cave
The dog barks at the demon behind Robin, and runs away in a bad temper
Robin chases after the dog, but accidentally triggers a bear trap
She frees herself, and continues looking for her dog
Suddenly, Chris frantically runs past her, and tells her to run to the church
She tells him that she cannot run with her injured leg; but he is already gone
Robin later finds Nia asleep
She tries to wake Nia up; but Nia is unresponsive
She tries to drag the greasy Nia out of the woods, but fails due to her heavy weight
Robin finds Nia’s camera on the floor
While looking through the videos, Nia finally wakes up, and asks Robin why she left her alone
Robin tells her that she found her lying asleep in a different spot
Confused by what is happening,
Nia confesses that they brought fake blood to scare Robin, and apologizes
Nia says that Amelia and Chris are at the church; but Robin refuses to go
She tells Nia that she almost died in the cave
They both agree to leave; but Nia suddenly stops to rest
Robin also starts feeling tired and sick
The flashlight turns off
The flashlight opens, and is picked up by an unseen force
Nia and Robin are seen sleeping on the floor
The flashlight suddenly drops; and Chris and Amelia arrive to find both girls sleeping
Chris tries to wake them up, and realizes that they both have fevers
After screaming for help, Chris leaves to look for his phone battery to call for help
Amelia tries to wake the girls up
but a tree suddenly falls beside her
Robin wakes up, and sees Nia holding the keychain that Ethan gave her
She takes the keychain, and wakes Nia up
While walking, they find a blood trail on the floor, leading to Chris’ backpack
They open it and find giant condoms, fake blood, and some notes on the forest
The notes tell them to watch out for snakes and wolves
They also discover the church’s location
Nia grabs the notes from Robin, and reads about the signs of demonic possession
The notes confirm that the drowsiness and a sleep-like state are symptoms of possession
Nia starts getting worried, as she and Robin experienced the same symptoms just earlier
The notes also say that the victims had their names written in the forest before they died
While walking through the forest, Nia remembers a dream that she had
In her dream, she and Robin were on the same path that they are on now
Nia remembers being unable to move, and seeing Robin standing under the fallen tree
Nia tells Robin that they were terrified, because something was following them
Right then, a loud noise startles them
Robin asks Nia what happened next in her dream; and Nia says that Robin’s nose started bleeding
Robin checks her nose
but there she is fine
However, Nia’s nose starts bleeding
They both panic, and turn off their lights while running away
They end up back in the cemetery; and Robin picks up a cross and throws it
Their flashlights start flickering; and Nia finds out that Robin’s flashlight belonged to Ethan
So she blames Robin for having cursed them
They continue walking; and a lamp suddenly turns on above them
Robin reassures Nia that it is turned on, because of motion sensors
They continue walking on the path, as the lamps turn on one by one above them
They begin arguing about whether or not to return to the church,
but are interrupted by a lamp suddenly flickering in the distance
They watch as the lamps along the path turn on and off one by one
Eventually, the lamp closest to the two starts flickering
After a few moments, the demon appears; and the two run away, but get separated
Sometime after, Robin finds Nia knocked out
Robin threatens to leave them alone if Nia doesn’t wake up; but nothing happens
Unable to do anything, she sits down beside Nia, and cries
Robin then tells the story of how she lied to Ethan, when he asked her to the homecoming dance
Sick of being around nerds like Ethan,
Robin told Ethan that she wouldn’t be able to come to the dance
However, she went to that party anyway with the cool kids, and got caught by Ethan
When Robin later found out that Ethan killed himself in the forest,
she felt so guilty that she went to the forest to kill herself
She failed, but found Ethan’s flashlight there
Suddenly, Robin’s flashlight flickers, and she tries calling out Ethan’s name
Unable to wake Nia up, Robin leaves on her own;
but Nia suddenly gets pulled away in the blink of an eye
Robin reaches the river, but is attacked by a snake, and falls into the water
She and the flashlight surface along the bank; and she continues forward
Robin finds Ethan’s old car in the forest
Inside, she finds their matching keychain, and a poster of the homecoming dance
Robin leaves her flashlight on the dashboard, and looks around outside
She uses the flash of Nia’s camera to look around
After noticing the demon’s face in a photo,
she rushes back into the car, and turns the headlights on
Convinced that Ethan is haunting her, Robin decides to talk to him to resolve matters
She exits the car, and uses the camera to search for Ethan’s spirit
While Robin walks away, the headlights shut off; and the car is flipped over
Someone picks up the flashlight, and enters the old church in the forest
The person heads upstairs, and finds a messy room
Suddenly, Amelia emerges from her hiding spot
The mirror also reveals that it was Chris that picked up the flashlight
Chris tells Amelia that the flashlight belongs to Robin
He feels guilty about leaving her to die, but tells Amelia that they should leave
Amelia decides to wait for the rest of the group before leaving
While waiting, Amelia starts feeling sleepy
Chris notices that her fingers are bleeding,
and that she has mindlessly written her name on the floor
Amelia panics; and Chris tries to comfort her with a prayer
The demons start banging on the door
Chris tries, but fails to turn off the flashlight
He covers it with cloth instead
The flashlight suddenly gets knocked away; and the cover is removed
Chris hurriedly puts the cover back on; but it is knocked away once more
The mirror falls and breaks in front of them
Chris reaches for the flashlight
but it is thrown down to the first floor
Shortly after, Chris’ dead body falls as well
Amelia runs to him; but the demon pulls her away
She drops to the floor with bloody eyes, and gets dragged away
While getting dragged, she tells Nia to stop,
revealing that Nia has been possessed by the demon, and is killing them off
Nia picks up the flashlight, and exits the church
Amelia and Chris’ dead bodies are lifted into the air, and tossed to the side
Meanwhile, Robin finds Nia in front of the house
She notices blood on his hands, and guesses that Ethan has possessed her
Robin enters the church and heads upstairs, where she finds their flashlights in a circle
The lights from the room below turn on
Downstairs, Robin finds Nia facing a closed door
Robin opens the door and enters
She finds lights hanging from the ceiling,
and sees another door inside with an inverted cross on it
Robin notices Nia approaching, and locks the door behind her
Robin opens the door with the cross, and kneels inside the small room
She apologizes to Ethan’s spirit,
but tells him that he shouldn’t punish her friends for her mistake
Nia begins banging loudly on the door
The lights slowly turn off; and the door shuts behind Robin
She is locked inside, and gets possessed by Ethan
Possessed Robin walks out of the room, and picks up the flashlight
The lights in the room get brighter and brighter, until they eventually shatter
The flashlight suddenly drops; and Robin picks up a shard of glass from the floor
She grabs the flashlight, leaves the room,
and sees Nia standing outside, who has regained her senses
Nia starts talking to her
but Robin slashes her neck with the glass shard
Robin returns to the small room
Apparently, the names of the victims are scribbled inside that small room
Using the glass shard, Robin writes on the floor, “Ethan was here”,
confirming that Ethan himself was the one haunting them
Ethan walks out of the church to the nearby cliff
Still, inside Robin’s body, he jumps down the cliff, killing Robin for good
Just as Robin’s body hits the ground, the day begins to break,
revealing the bodies of the other four friends, on the ground beside her
The film ends with a video recording of Ethan
While crying, Ethan confesses that he is going to the forest to kill himself
He calls the video his final suicide note
