The Babadook

Six years after the violent death of her husband, Amelia (Essie Davis) is at a loss. She struggles to discipline her 'out of control' 6-year-old, Samuel (Noah Wiseman), a son she finds impossible to love. Samuel's dreams are plagued by a sinister 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. His hallucinations spiral out of control and as he becomes more unpredictable and violent, Amelia is genuinely frightened by her son's behavior. But when Amelia begins to see glimpses of a sinister presence all around her, it slowly dawns on her that the thing Samuel has been warning her about may be real.

This was a creepy ass movie.  The kid was creepy.  The mom freaking out was creepy.  The scenes with the creature were simple as opposed to other movies and that in turn made it creepy.  I liked this movie a lot.  It was similar to the first Grudge and Ring movies and was very well written/developed.

I would definitely recommend people, especially horror fans, checking this movie out.  It was much better than I expected it to be.
