The Babadook
Directed by Jennifer Kent
Six years after the death of her husband, Amelia struggles to discipline her ‘out of control’ 6 year-old Samuel – a son she finds difficult to love. Samuel’s dreams are plagued by a monster he believes is coming to kill them both. When a disturbing storybook called ‘The Babadook’ turns up at their house, Samuel is convinced that the Babadook is the creature he’s been dreaming about. And when Amelia begins to see glimpses of the creature herself, it slowly dawns on her that the thing Samuel has been warning her about may well be real.

its deep and can be interpreted in different ways. that explains the mixed 💀
I remember when I first watched this movie (I was too young but loved horror movies) it haunted me for a week! Maybe more! Definitely not your typical cheap jump scare movie. It has a good story line and an even better build up. Creepy and eerie. Worth the watch 🌟
One of my top five all time!
Worth a watch
Good aussie horror, easy to watch even if you don't like scares.
