Stephen A Russell says: “Premiering at the Midnight section of this year’s Sundance Film Festival, Australian writer/director Jennifer Kent’s debut feature, the stark and stylish The Babadook, found itself an instant critical darling. Boldly eerie visuals And Davis’ compelling performance distract from the generic plot.”
