Does “Really Getting” The Babadook Make Clint A Bad Parent? | CineFix Top 100

“If you’re so hungry, why don’t you just go eat S#!T!!!”

We’re hanging out in the snow at Park City for the 40th edition of the Sundance Film Festival this week and got a chance to see 2014 festival alum The Babadook on the big screen and wouldn’t you know it, it happens to be on the CineFix Top 100! A terrifying entry into the psychological horror genre, writer director Jennifer Kent gives us the story of a woman and her son, struggling to keep their sanity in the midst of grief, trauma and a haunted pop up book! Clint, Cal and Alex dig into the brilliantly efficient opening 2 minutes, a borrowed sound effect from World of Warcraft and The Babadook is a deserving spiritual successor to Stephen King, Stanley Kubrick and The Shining.

Meanwhile, Dan’s algorithm is a gay icon…
