The Babadook

Movie Summary: A single mother, plagued by the violent death of her husband, battles with her son’s fear of a monster lurking in the house, but soon discovers a sinister presence all around her.

Queer Film LA Says: When asked about the Babadook's gay icon status, director Jennifer Kent said, �I think it�s crazy and just kept him alive. I thought, �Ah, you bastard.� He doesn�t want to die, so he�s finding ways to become relevant"� essentially making him the Australian Dorian Gray.
