Subject: That is not a video

It's funny you say that, because that voice was exactly what pulled me into the "scare zone". I don't think I've ever been genuinely scared by a movie before (though admittedly, I don't watch horror movies often, and only went to the Babadook because a friend had an extra ticket to a midnight screening and I had heard good things), but that voice did it for me. One thing that everyone who went with us to see it agreed on was that while a lot of the things in the movie were pretty standard horror movie tropes, the beauty was in how well they were executed.

I also think immersion was key to the movie (I mean, immersion is key to pretty much every movie, but even moreso for this one, I think). The first time I saw it was in a pretty standard theater, but the second time was in a 14-seat room on a relatively small screen without surround sound, and it was underwhelming.
