"9.1. 2021 A single mother living with her problematic son has to deal with her psychological traumas after her husband died. "The Babadook" isn't an especially unique psychological horror film but it deals with serious issues like a loss of loved one in a mature and admirably straight-forward way. The film also keeps viewers on their toes all the time."
