The Babadook stars Essie Davis (The Slap, The Matrix Revolutions) as “a single mother, plagued by the violent death of her husband, who battles with her son’s fear of a monster lurking in the house, but soon discovers a sinister presence all around her.”
The film also stars Daniel Henshall (Snowtown), and is written and directed by Jennifer Kent.
No UK release date for The Babadook has yet been announced; hopefully it will find distribution soon.
