How to unlock the Stop the Monster achievement in Alan Wake 2 - Definitive Guide

Taken Throwers are common enemies that throw knives and axes at you and run very fast.
Just before the run they will jump in place saying something related to running. This is the spot you have to use Flashlight Boost on them.

Here's a short video

Video clearly works so no downvote from me or anything, but I cannot get this to unlock. Trying with the first two you come across after getting to Watery in Return 3: Local Girl. Perhaps it’s not unlock able there?

Couldn't seem to get the timing down on this but I actually got it a super easy way - in Saga's Chapter 7 (Summoning), you'll have some assists from friends with lights. They seem to automatically target the Throwers and got this achievement for me just seconds into the big fight, so if you're struggling, don't sweat it and see if you can replicate when you get to this point.
