We're still mad at Jennifer Kent for unleashing The Babadook on our psyches. We weren't ready for the psychological destruction that resulted from the 2014 horror film, and we still haven't recovered. In case you haven't braved her directorial debut yet, it tells the story of Amelia and her son Sam, who find themselves terrorised by a character in a children's book. It was a major critical success, winning best horror film at the 20th Empire Awards. Kent also wrote and directed 2018 film The Nightingale, which stars Aisling Franciosi as a revenge-seeking convict.
