What was the significance of this scene in the woods when Nicholas Cage chases one of the aliens and asks who they are and what they want with the children?

I think the light was just to show that these people were not ordinary human beings, nothing more.

To show Cage they use their own flashlights, from their mouths.

It blinded him temporarily which gave the alien time to escape from him as Nicholas Cage's character at that time would have shot it.
