The Babadook

Six years after the death of her husband, Amelia struggles to discipline her ‘out of control’ 6 year-old Samuel – a son she finds difficult to love. Samuel’s dreams are plagued by a monster he believes is coming to kill them both. When a disturbing storybook called ‘The Babadook’ turns up at their house, Samuel is convinced that the Babadook is the creature he’s been dreaming about. And when Amelia begins to see glimpses of the creature herself, it slowly dawns on her that the thing Samuel has been warning her about may well be real.

I read the book about the babadook. When I heard about the movie, I took a look at The Babadook. I was so shook, it almost made me stab the cook in my kitchen nook.
kinda unrealistic to me? my boyfriend said the demon was lame. kinda get it? so yeah 2 skulls seems fair, was questioning one.
the babadook was the friends we made along the way
