I have an interior door that leaks light.

I've tried vinal bend it 90deg stuff, and the foam type weatherstripping.

The dood is adjusted correctly, but there is a 1 1/2" gap between the door and hardwood floor. There used to be carpet in the room I guess.

What do you do?

put a draught excluder on the bottom of the door

You could staple some plastic lite proof sheeting to the lower edges, it will be flexible enoughto enter and exit but will block lite completely. Use ablout 4"s and that should do it.
