Very unnerving, VERY amazing movie

Rating: 10/10 (23 April 2016)

I am a huge fan of horrors and psych thrillers, but I have to say, this movie REALLY unsettled me. I saw someone say it's like a mix of The Shining and We Need To Talk About Kevin, and that is absolutely right.
With NO JUMPSCARES, The Babadook somehow manages to unsettle the viewer more than any other movie I can think of. I expected it to be one of those horror movies like Insidious, but it is far from. (It's more of a psych thriller.) The acting is phenomenal, for maybe the first time, I really, really cared about the characters. It is such an unnerving movie, and I felt genuinely scared. I would highly recommend watching this movie.
