This one really surprised us - I was expecting Babadook to be singing and dancing all over the place. Seriously, the acting was so on point by our lead mother here, The child knew the assignment when they said scream bloody murder in the most inconvenient times and they did really well with making the atmosphere creepy. So most of it just felt bleak but we lived for it!

A single mother and her child fall into a deep well of paranoia when an eerie children's book titled "Mister Babadook" manifests in their home.

I wish I liked this movie but I hated it 😬

Kate

🌈 also this makes me want a Triangle reaction

Salomé

Me, too. I think I'm Too Southern™ for that child.

Chantal

Expectations. I just thought I was getting a different type of movie. I didn’t like that there wasn’t actually a monster & that it was a metaphor for grief. I just wasn’t in the headspace for that type of movie at the time.

KiwiJello

Never seen his. I guess I will now!

You hit the nail on the head. The Babadook represents grief, depression, anxiety, etc. You never get rid of it, but you manage to live with it. It’s brilliant turning that concept into a horror movie. Because that’s what grief is. Some days you’re good, other days it hits you with full force.

Tom

I honestly didn't know it had anything to do with LGBTQ. Thank you for the info

Tom

That was a good movie and great reaction

I had not seen this movie before. I was widowed at 25 with a 3 mo old son. It will be 39 years next month. You don't 'get over' some losses. You go on. My son was bullied when he was about this kid's age by school kids. Bullied because his dad was dead. Grief can do some really fucked up things to your mind but this is just a bit too much. I love a good monster movie but this is not my cup of tea..😕

Elesia

Thanks for the reaction! 🩷 Another movie that I think you'll both like is The Night House (2020), it's one of my favorite movies (⁠っ⁠.⁠❛⁠ ⁠ᴗ⁠ ⁠❛⁠.⁠)⁠っ

KatieBee

I'm also too Southern for that little kid 😂 I understand EXACTLY what you mean

Karen_Tries

Omg maybe that’s the reason for me too! Cause that just clicked! 😆

KatieBee

The use of chemical restraint on a child is the real horror of this movie. Eughh nevermind just got to the dog part. 😡

Gigi

“Let’s talk about the husband” 😭😭

Zombies_Are_Real

This is a movie I don't like, though the acting is great! What I wanted, and maybe got?, was a new Scary Movie where Regina Hall plays the Babadook.

Jessica

Idk but “we are currently gay” killed me

Kiah Bailey

Honestly the name Pugsly is way better than Bugsy anyways. Rest in power little buddy

Carmito

Sam: ABRACADABRA! Sergio: he brings out his dad.

un.filth.er.ed

LMAOOOO i love this movie, not just because it's excellent, but also the cultural reset the babadook became a queer icon.

Charging Thunder

Not wanting the babadook book but having the Annabelle and chucky doll is crazy

Trinity Bernhardt

Technically it doesn't officially, though I think many can see themselves in the child. The Babadook became a queer icon because Netflix accidentally put this movie in the LGBT section of the app. It was first to pop up. People ran with it, because he is an awesome icon.

Roz

I'm so glad that you guys cover this movie. When it first came out I tried to watch it it was late night I was in the bed by myself and I had to turn it off until the next day because it was so creepy.

Trinity Bernhardt

I felt so bad for both mom and son. Her grief was so strong and kept her from letting her son in, which created so many of his troubles, but I still empathized with her so much. I could tell she was still trying to be there for him, even though she was so closed off emotionally I have never cheered a child's injury in a movie before, but I felt no empathy for the bratty cousin or her mom. I think the mom deserved it more than her, just simply because she is creating this child's horrible personality.

Pat_Bez

Most unrealistic part of this movie is that little kid swallowing his pills with water with ZERO dramatics. My imagination only goes so far!

Meredith Konicki

I'm with a lot of other folks in the comments and I don't love this movie, though I agree the acting is wonderful and the atmosphere is very eerie -- a couple times I genuinely wanted to crawl out of my skin. Ultimately, I think I'm probably not sophisticated enough for elevated horror 😂 and I tend to prefer popcorn horror with flare, but I'll watch anything along with you two. ❤️

I remember this movie having a very mixed reception when it was released because of course in the States it was marketed as a monster movie and people had no idea the true monster was grief, anxiety and depression.. but it holds up really well and it seems to be more appreciated now than it was a decade ago

Danilo C

My interpretation is that it's not JUST symbolism for grief, depression, anxiety, etc. I think there is no supernatural in this movie whatsoever and I think the mom wasn't just "thinking" about hurting her son. I think every year around Sam's birthday the mom has a kind of breakdown due to the trauma of how she lost her husband, all the stress of being a depressed single mom and the resentment she feels for her son. She knows the kid is not to blame for her husband's death but she can't help but blame him and feels horrible because of it. This "breakdown" that she has around his birthday leads her to mistreat her son, maybe even be physically violent sometimes, but she doesn't consciously remember it afterwards. And that's why Samuel is a bit... odd. He is being physically abused by his mother every year. But he somehow manages to separate his mom from the "monster" that mistreats him. And that's also why, even before the book shows up, he's always talking about monsters and how he needs to fight them and defend himself AND his mom from them. So he comes up with these weapons and traps because he knows the "monster" is getting ready to come out. We constantly see Samuel get super scared when his mother raises her voice while they are alone. We are made to think it's because he somehow knows "the babadook" is possessing her, but I think it's because that's how she talks to him when she's about to be abusive, so Samuel braces himself for what he knows is coming. I don't think a seven year old kid who has never been abused would cringe and hide and crawl into a little ball on the floor just from her mom raising her voice. It wouldn't even cross their mind that the mother could physically hurt him if she had never done it. The mom, seeing his son start to call this disassociated state of hers a "monster", begins to use it as her own coping mechanism and creates this Babadook creature . The mom was the one who created the Mister Babadook book and put it in her son's bookshelf. Remember that in her niece's birthday party they talked about how she used to be writer, including children's books. So SHE wrote the Babadook book and put it all together, but doesn't remember because she did it during one of her "disassociated state" episodes. The Babadook is a mutual creation by mom and son, a representation of this abusive side of her. The parts that get added later to the book that shows her killing the Bugsy and Samuel and then herself are her intrusive, depressive thoughts that she put in the book. As you noted, we never really see "the Babadook" attack Samuel. She's the one that chokes him in the basement. And when Samuel gets dragged up the stairs and then pushed against the wall, we don't see the Babadook at all, but we do we see the mom's hands out stretched as if to try to catch him and protect him, but that's just her coping mechanism making her see it that way. The truth is she's the one dragging him and pushing him. I never tried, but i think that if you delay Samuels movements by a second or two during those scenes but keep the mom's movements as they are, they would sync up and we'd see she's the one doing it. That moment when she decides to defend Samuel against the Babadook at the end is basically her choosing her son over her grief and resentment and all that. And deciding to do something about it. To not let it get in the way of her and her son's happiness and relationship. And the times when she "feeds" the Babadook are the moments when she allows herself to feel all that grief and pain. The Babadook "lives" in the basement because that's where they keep all of the husband's stuff. So she goes there with all the stuff that reminds her of him, to allow those feelings to "come out". And she doesn't let her son come with her because she wants to shield him from that side of her. Anyway, sorry for the huge wall of text. I probably could have summarized this a lot, but I got carried away. I think the movie is kind of brilliant if you think about it from this perspective.

And now introducing the most vile, heinous, never satisfied, thoroughly annoying, migraine inducing, utterly destructive, make you wanna gouge your ears out and eat a large shotgun barrel, menace and villain to ever grace a horror film…and that’s all without mentioning the Babadook itself of course 😂🤣😂🤣Girl, just give that little monster a Good Guy doll (that in turn can be passed on to that nasty little tree house girl 🤣), then you can rub one out in peace and get a good night’s sleep for once😂

Rebecca Hopkins

I don’t know about any of you, but I’ve always loved that Robby didn’t come back. One look at that family dynamic and that man was OUT. And in my life experience, this tracks hard and is the most realistic character arc in the film 🤣

Rebecca Hopkins

Couldn’t we have gotten Pugsly (Bugsy to all the rest of us🤣) a babadook reset do over? Poor baby 😢

Natalie Halveston

This movie is such a visceral depiction of depression for me. When she lay down to sleep and then the kid came in.... damn that feeling of just needing to sleep. I get severe fatigue. It almost feels chemically induced it's so bad. Which isn't helped by my 13 Yr old that won't sleep till midnight at times and will get up 2/3 am. This happens for weeks at a time with like a few weeks interim of normal sleeping. She's autistic and severe learning disabled with epilepsy. It's not her fault and she's such a wonderful and incredible child. But those few weeks that we go through are honestly the toughest times. She can't communicate her feelings in any way that is helpful to her which is what is frustrating her so she self harms (smacks her face, bites herself and kicks her legs) I'll try to nap once she settles but then she'll shove a book in my face to read or to draw for her which I love but after 36 hours of no sleep 🤣 Or she'll replay the same thing over and over and loudly 🫨😴 And I'll cry, make a coffee and push forward. The hardest thing to bear is the resentment. The resentment and the grief of the child I thought I would have. This lasts seconds. And I'm back to loving and being glad I have the child I have. But the guilt I feel at that second long feeling of resentment lasts forever. Which drives me further into depression. I'm saying all this mainly to explain that her acting is incredible. And I felt and have felt everything she felt. That love for her child but also that feeling of "please shhhhhhh let me sleep" Amazing film. Sad film. And yes, I allow myself to cry and feed my babadook some worms every now and again and it honestly resets me and allows me to continue with the day
