The Babadook (2014)

Starring: Essie Davis
Director: Jennifer Kent

Premise:
A mysterious book causes a child with an overactive imagination and an exhausted, single mother to deal with a unwanted presence.

My Take:
A suspenseful, slow burn tale which lets the view decide what is may be real and what is not. An original tale that had me on the edge of my seat.

Rating: Instant Classic
