Happy Halloween! It's the final episode of Screen Cares' special October series, Screen Scares. This week, we're highlighting a horror film by the incredible writer and director, Jennifer Kent. Sarah believes Kent's film, The Babadook (2014), shows us that we can close the loop and find resolution even when things feel dark and difficult. Jennie says that this movie is, "The Shining, but for Moms." Either way you look at it, The Babadook is a movie demands to be talked about.
Screen Shares Rating: The Babadook is a surprising Work Screen but its narrative structure opens the door for conversation about the value of being supportive, curious and empathetic to the experiences of others.
While Screen Scares Month is coming to a close, regular Screen Cares programming will be back next week with more great conversations about how you can find the meaning in the films you watch.
