Bruce Demara
A clever thriller, bolstered by three great performances.
Adam Litovitz
The film doesn't offer the sense of release, or of surprise, that it seems to take for granted.
Soren Anderson
"The X-Files" is long gone. Hail and farewell. But its spirit lives on in "Red Lights." Hail, hail.
Amy Biancolli
By strict definition, any movie featuring Robert De Niro as a spoon-bending clairvoyant superstar ought to hold a few cards up its sleeve.
Bill Goodykoontz
A lot of talent comes up empty in "Red Lights," a thriller that doesn't thrill.
Rene Rodriguez
With the sort of last-minute plot twist that sank M. Night Shyamalan's career, Red Lights comes to an unexpected, risible end.

User reviews
below average this movie insulted my intelligence. very slow and has a corny ending. do not recommend.
Excellent Movie Those that say this movie deserved 3 stars or less really need to let go and enjoy themselves. Horror? Nope, not a horror movie, just an edge of your seat movie that gets you thinking. If there were more stars to give, I'd give them a 10. A must see if you are a De Niro or Murphy fan, or if your just looking for a good movie.
Awesome stuff!! Great cast and a great movie!! Loved it! Kept me on the edge the whole way thru.
Don't know why it's in the horror category... It's more of a thriller. Murphy and Weaver are great. De Miro seems like he's phoning it in.
Pretty good Red Lights was a good movie, it kept me on the edge of my seat all the way through. It deserved a wider release.
Little movie with big names Not very well known but an awesome movie!
Nice film. Not really horror but solid 4 star material. Great cast, great story.
Red Lights Incredibly good movie. Kept me on the edge from start to finish. Highly recommend it.

Red House
Horror
4
When Shelby Gordon (Kate French) inherits a house from her paternal grandfather Isaiah Hill (Walter Olszewski) in the remote woods of Copperhead County, she asks her friends Carissa (Yvette Yates) and Lindsey (Cristen Coppen) to go with her to check it out. The girls, joined by Chelsea (Kat Sheridan) and her boyfriend Travis (Lawrence Adimora), set out for a weekend in the country. Once they arrive, they discover that due to heavy rainfall the road to the house is closed and they must hike in the back way. Carissa is used to being pampered by her wealthy boyfriend and doesn't enjoy the trek through the woods nor is she happy about the revolting condition the Red House is in when they arrive. Hikers in the area have broken in and used the house as a stopover. They find it filled with trash and empty beer cans. Without telling the group, Carissa hikes back to the car the next morning. Only she never makes it. Assuming Carissa has gone into town to look for a motel, the others go about cleaning the house. While looking through some boxes, Shelby discovers that her father had a brother Joshua (John Otrin) who was institutionalized when he was young. When her friends start to disappear, Shelby suspects that Joshua is still alive and hiding in the attic of the Red House. The girls are also being threatened by a couple of local pot growers, Pink (Gregory Avellone) and his son Will (Ed Ackerman). Is Joshua killing her friends or is it someone else? With the help of Cole Callahan (Brendan Wayne,) the handsome deputy sheriff of Copperhead County, she unravels the mystery. The Red House is not a gore fest but a suspense thriller that will keep you guessing.

Survival depends on everybody in the store pulling togetherÉbut is that possible, given human nature? As reason crumbles in the face of fear and panic, David begins to wonder what terrifies him more: the monsters in the mistÑor the ones inside the store, the human kind, the people that until now had been his friends and neighbors?

Adapted from the terrifying short story by suspense master, Stephen King. Renowned horror novelist Mike Enslin (John Cusack) believes only in what he can see with his own two eyes. But after a string of bestsellers discrediting paranormal events in the most infamous haunted houses and graveyards around the world, he has no real proof of life...afterlife. But Enslin's phantom-free run of long and lonely nights is about to change forever when he checks into suite 1408 of the notorious Dolphin Hotel for his latest project, "Ten Nights in Haunted Hotel Rooms." Defying the warnings of the hotel manager (Samuel L. Jackson), the author is the first person in years to stay in the reputedly haunted room. Another bestseller may be imminent, but like many Stephen King heroes, first he must go from skeptic to true believer -- and confront his demons to survive the night.
