Watched The Babadook last night. Profoundly unsettling, if not to say frightening film. I doesn't really cover much 'new ground' (though that sort of thing is quite hard to do, especially in the horror genre), but it takes a lot of concepts (the blurring of reality and fantasy, feelings of isolation, loss of control by those who are supposed to exercise it) and plays them very deftly indeed. The realisation of the creature is also very well done. I'd highly recommend it.
