Chicago, see the new horror movie Lights Out early and for free
Since breaking through in a big way with Saw back in 2004, James Wan has been behind some of modern horror’s most successful (and frightening) movies. From the Insidious series to the ever-expanding The Conjuring franchise, the man has a knack for making audiences scream. And though he already scored big earlier this summer with The Conjuring 2, he’s at it again this month, tackling one of the most basic of human fears: the fear of the dark. Produced by Wan, Lights Out adapts director David F. Sandberg’s horrifying short for the big screen and stars Maria Bello and Teresa Palmer as a mother and daughter haunted by some ghouls who thrive in the night.
