You can feel the ulcer growing

Rating: 3/10 (22 May 2015)

I tend to write reviews only when I'm extremely frustrated with what I've just seen, and this one is the new champion.
You will not be able to relate to any of the main characters, and you sure as hell won't need Babadook to want to strangle the kid. Dear lord, that kid needs a good beating. After the first few minutes you will dream about the mother bashing the kid's face in but she never delivers. It's like having guests with a demented kid. The kid's rolling on the floor and making annoying sounds, but instead of them doing something about it or at least pretending like nothing is going on, they are in the constant state of confusion - that is the entire movie.
If you don't want your body developing an ulcer for 1.5 hours, stay clear off this one.
3 stars only because the kid's book was spooky.
