The Babadook (2014)
Pretty decent little Australian psychological horror film. Borrows from The Shining a little bit. It's pretty nicely put together.
quote: A single mother, plagued by the violent death of her husband, battles with her son's fear of a monster lurking in the house, but soon discovers a sinister presence all around her.

I thought it was merely decent. It didn't live up to the hype.

Yeah, it's easy to b!tch about little things in it. I think you have to enjoy the little things...
Overall I thought the lead actress was impressive and it has some nice old-school horror filmmaking techniques and skillful editing.

As a low budget horror flick I like "It Follows" better than this film.

Agreed. I hadn't expected much when I heard the premise but It Follows was surprisingly good.

There was a few times the mom clearly wanted to bash her own kids head in with a bat[SPOILER - highlight to read]: before being possessed that is. When she was of a clear mind

I was kinda disappointed. You could feel the love between the mother & her son but their performances were a bit over powering when they were together onscreen.
The trailers also gave the impression that the kid fights back with homemade weapons & booby traps like Home Alone & sadly that was not the case.
There's also a short film included in the Blu-ray about the Babadook that's both cute & poignant.

I'm a huge fan of The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, I dug some of the homages to it, mainly the Babadooks design. The kid was annoying as Hell though.
