Director : Jennifer Kent
Running Time : 94 mins
Following a car crash that killed her husband, Amelia Vanek (Davis) is forced to deal with the psychological repercussions that seem to be affecting her son Samuel (Wiseman) as his behaviour worsens, ranging from violent outbursts to fears of monsters under his bed, until one day she starts to suspect that the monsters might be real...
This movie uses atmosphere more than anything to get its scares across, and it actually suffers a little when The Babadook starts to rear its ugly head. The pacing is slow to crawling, but that just builds up the tension, and the main leads do a decent job of keeping the scares coming. I’d love a copy of the book from this film, it looked so cool, but the movies ending felt like an unfunny imitation of the ending to Shaun Of The Dead.
