Short Babadook-oriented film.

Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) This is a very short film. It only runs for under a minute and shows us a sleigh let by reindeer including the famous Rudolph. However, the one leading the sleigh is not Santa. It's the Babadook from the successful horror movie in this little Grinch spoof. The camera moves down to earth and we see Santa lying in the snow with his face to the ground, apparently dead or at least severely injured. Oh you evil Dook, what have you done? It's an okay watch for fans of the movie, but there is really nothing memorable about it all in all, especially not the animation. Looks like a cheap production, but then again, it's not a completely failure either and kinda works for what it is: a short horror snippet for the holidays. All in all, not recommended.
