The other small drawback with this movie for me was mostly because of slightly unrealistic behavior from our main characters, occasionally. Who doesn't love a young prodigy? The plot has some weight and emotion to it, and with a solid ending that wraps things up in a much more satisfying way than most similar movies. The characters are really good, well written and performed, and with a young boy that if not before, totally kick started his future acting career with this movie. But thanks to a good story and good actors, the movie still holds its ground to the very end.
Towards the end you've almost gotten so used to it that the scare effect wears off a bit, and is one of two reason I don't rank this a 10. The concept of something that can only appear and be seen if it's dark (and with a somewhat supernatural ability to destroy light bulbs) is bound to lead to a jump scare or ten whenever it appears. Interestingly enough, it keeps that pulse up throughout the movie despite of this. This movie will get your pulse up fast, revealing the "horror" very early on.
