The mother’s troubled son (Noah Wiseman) begins experiencing visions of a monster lurking in their house, and it’s not long before his fear becomes her fear as a sinister boogeyman begins haunting them both. The film stars Essie Davis as a single mother haunted by the violent death of her husband. IFC Films originally opened “The Babadook” in November 2014, where it grossed over $7 million on a $2 million budget.
