Does it need to be spelt out?

Rating: 10/10 (31 October 2014)

After just seeing this movie, and then reading the reviews, I have to say I agree with the majority here. It's by far the best horror flick I have seen for quite some time. I have been disappointed so many times recently by the latest horror films, I had begin to think the genre had become saturated with high-budget, over-hyped movies that fail to deliver any real scares. It seems horror movies nowadays are made to try and cater for too much of a wide audience. Babadook says 'screw you' to the Transformers fans who need everything spelt out to them, and instead takes a whole new approach. I couldn't help but notice the lack of music in the scare scenes, the lack of the obligatory house trashing scenes and the dog that actually gets killed and not comes running back to its owner for a happy ending. Bravo to everyone involved in this movie. I look forward to the next film from you guys!
To sum up....this is a horror...with a difference. High budget, action packed, Arnie fans...please stay away.
