The only decent version, forget the BBC's abomination. Arguably Australian director Peter Weir's greatest film.

A neurotic widow and her son fall into a deep well of paranoia when an eerie children's book titled Mister Babadook manifests in their home.
There was an internet trend that believed the Babadook was a paedophile and even a group that identified with this Babadook, however, when examined on the matter they claimed the Babadook was homosexual (few would admit openly to child abuse), though this begs the question: if the Babadook is harassing a child and its sexuality is to the fore then as the victim is a child..? &c.
Seems this was mainly on Reddit, like most internet fads its origins are obscure and ephemeral.
Shot in Adelaide.

Based on a true story, with some serious alterations. A young man was swept away by a fast flowing river and his friends went in to save him, they managed to climb into a tree and were stalked by a large croc, the same croc that had recently dined on one of them.
Anyway, not a bad film.

A charismatic (Daniel Henshall) takes his girlfriend's teenage son (Lucas Pittaway) under his wing and makes him an accomplice in a murder spree.

Richard Franklin has directed a quaint, low budget thriller with a likable although unusual lead actor in the role of Frustrated Hero.
Unsure why Jamie Lee Curtis is put into so many Australian and British films, nothing wrong with her but she's no Errol Flynn, maybe she's cheap and I'm not just referring to her elastic morals.
