Two birthdays

Birthdays are only with those you love. Such satisfying and relaxing happiness is one of the most precious experiences in your life. So I especially like this ending. With cold tones, two lonely people celebrating their birthdays, yet they are so happy with each other, it is hard to say that this is not one of the most heartwarming images.

There are so many plots in this movie that touch me.

The movie portrays despair and suspense extremely deeply. First of all, despair. The hostess is in this special hopeless state. She just walks into the abyss step by step. You can't see any way out for her. The scenes that BABADOOK appears are not terrible. This kind of despair that goes deep into the bones of the bones is the real killer of this movie.

Suspenseful. Hitchcock explained the suspense as, "A group of people are playing cards and there is a bomb under the table, but they don't know. You tell the audience that there is a bomb underneath, and then you keep going "tick and tick". This is suspense." This film undoubtedly succeeded in grabbing my heart very suspiciously. Knowing that the hostess will kill dogs and children afterwards, you have been waiting and waiting. They are so helpless and almost killed. So you have been waiting anxiously to see how despair really comes. I really didn't want to watch it for a while, until I watched the film review that the little boy would suddenly be the upper body of the little devil, and then I continued.

In addition, I have to say that this film selected a single mother to take a bear child, and although I love it, but at the same time I hate it, and sometimes even want to give up directly. It is also very good. At the same time, it is very accurate. Such angles and descriptions seem to have never been seen in other horror films.

There is no doubt that everyone will say that the happy ending is already guessed. I also think this ending is very weak, but it makes my heart feel better. But many horror films need a happy ending, which seems very contradictory to this subject. In fact, horror movies can give people hope, which seems very contradictory. But it is true.

The Babadook quotes

  • Amelia: [Samuel comes out from hiding and Amelia shrieks like a banshee. Amelia starts approaching Samuel, but he starts wetting himself.] You little pig. Six years old and you're still wetting yourself. You don't know how many times I wished it was you, not him, that died.

    Samuel: I just wanted you to be happy.

    Amelia: [mocking Samuel] I just want you to be happy. Sometimes I just want to smash your head against the brick wall until your fucking brains pop out.

    Samuel: [softly] You're not my mother.

    Amelia: What did you say?

    Samuel: I said you're not my mother!

    Amelia: I AM YOUR MOTHER!

  • Samuel: It wasn't me, Mum! The Babadook did it!
