Description
Australian psychological horror thriller written and directed by Jennifer Kent. Amelia (Essie Davis), a grieving single mother, grows to resent her difficult son Samuel (Noah Wiseman) in the wake of her husband's death six years previously. As well as having to deal with Samuel constantly getting into trouble at school, things become even more tense at home when he begins having disturbing visions of a threatening character from his storybook 'The Babadook'.
Becoming more frightened by Samuel's visions, Amelia also begins having similar experiences, and she starts to believe that there may be more to the hallucinations than she initially thought...
