BABADOOK... DOOK... DOOK...
"You get into her body and you must get out now!"
You can't get rid of it. Indeed you must face it. Too many symbolic meaning in the movie though if you get it.

Analogically, the Babadook symbolize the grief that haunted the mother's life. Oscar, her husband died in the accident just before he be a father of a child. And after the incident, the mother felt a great pathetic. She just try to say that she moved on and don't even allow anyone to talk about her husband. Well, as said before, you can't get rid of Babadook. At the end of the story, the mother realize an apt place of the grief where she can visit. She actually defeated the grief. She did it.

Besides, the moment where at first the mother kills the dog also give the symbolic I think. It shows that her early ego that dominated herself. After that, from the story book, it should be her son. Slowly, the ego fade away after she realize that she actually love her son.

But actually, I don't really satisfied with the ending of the story. I was like "what? It just like they live happily! With BABADOOK in that room?" Well, I expected that all of them die just like the late night news watched by the mother. There here goes. So another symbolic comes. Which mean that actually that mothers can't move on with the reality that happened to her life- death of her husband. So she just follow the husband's instruction to take the boy with them. In fact to bring the whole family into doom.

I think this way will be more tragic and give a great impact. Just from my view. Anyway, I enjoyed this movie. Thanks Mdm Zue^^
