S1E12 Supernatural Horror - The Babadook


Listen Later

Get ready for your next pour from our Supernatural Horror keg as we talk about a recent horror hit: The Babadook. We take a trip to Australia to talk through Jennifer Kent’s feature debut.

Kent pairs scares with a thought-provoking metaphor as a terrifying monster haunts a mother and son. Since its release in 2014, The Babadook has gained a reputation as one of the best horror movies of the 2010s, as well as birthing internet memes and even a wonderfully silly discourse: is the Babadook an LGBT+ icon?

Pour yourself a beer and listen along as Christian and Scott sit down to see if The Babadook deserves its positive reputation.
