Der Babadook (2014)
Die alleinerziehende Mutter Amelia hat den sechs Jahre zurückliegenden Tod ihres Mannes noch immer nicht ganz überwunden. Hinzu kommt, dass ihr Sohn Samuel ihr zunehmend Kummer bereitet. So quälen den Jungen Alpträume von einem Monster, das ihn und seine Mutter umbringen will. Als er dann auch noch eine alte Schauergeschichte mit dem Titel "Mister Babadook" findet, verstärkt dies seine Angst nur noch, verkündet jenes Buch doch, dass man die titelgebende Kreatur nicht mehr loswerden kann, sobald man einmal einen Blick hinein geworfen hat. Von seiner Furcht übermannt, wird Samuel immer unberechenbarer und gewalttätiger. Dennoch glaubt die besorgte Amelia zunächst nicht an eine übernatürliche Heimsuchung. Doch nach und nach wird auch sie von verstörenden Erscheinungen geplagt. Hat ihr Sohn vielleicht doch die ganze Zeit Recht gehabt?
