The Babadook (2014) is a masterful blend of psychological horror and emotional drama, directed by Jennifer Kent. The film stands out for its atmospheric tension and the strong performances of its lead actors, Essie Davis as Amelia and Noah Wiseman as Samuel. Davis delivers a powerful portrayal of a mother on the edge, while Wiseman convincingly embodies the fear and vulnerability of a troubled child. The film's minimalist setting and eerie sound design contribute to a sense of dread that builds throughout the story.
