The Babadook (2014)

1. (MUFFLED) Mum!

2. Mum!

3. Mummy!

4. Mum!

5. (CLEARER) Mum!

6. I had the dream again.

7. (READS) "And he climbed down that chimney,

8. "straight into the huge black pot.

9. "And that was the end of the big, bad wolf."

10. Did they really kill the wolf, Mum?

11. I'm sure they did.

12. I'll kill the monster when it comes.

13. I'll smash its head in.

14. It's time to go to sleep now, sweetie.

15. It's very late.

16. Can we read it again?

17. "A long time ago... just yesterday, in fact...

18. "there were three little pigs and one nasty big wolf."

19. What have you done? - It's not broken. It just slipped.

20. I don't want you firing things off in the house anymore.

21. Wait, wait, wait. Watch this. When the monster comes, I'm gonna do this.

22. Please don't!

23. Nothing in my hands.

24. - Nothing in my hands. - Stand still, please.

25. Look at me, Mum!

26. Come on, Samuel.

27. - Look at me. - Stand still, please.

28. Nothing in my hands. Nothing in my hands.

29. - I don't want you making weapons anymore. - It doesn't work if you don't look at me.

30. This monster thing has got to stop, alright?

31. Mmm.

32. Don't do that!

33. Ready?

34. Come on.

35. Quick. You're late already.

36. (BAG RATTLES) What have you got in there?

37. See you later, alligator.

38. Here's one for you, Norma. It's got milk in it.

39. What?

40. One with your milk in it.

41. I don't want milk.

42. No worries. I'll make you another one.

43. Ah, just where a woman should be. In the kitchen.

44. Hmm. Get to work, woman.

45. Do you want a cuppa?

46. Nah. I'm heading for the dementia ward.

47. Aw. It's a few years before you end up there, isn't it?

48. - (LAUGHS) - Right?

49. Amelia? Your son's school is on the phone.

50. Oh, my God. Did he hurt anyone?

51. A dart could have gone into a child's eye or even worse.

52. I'm going to have a serious talk with him.

53. Mrs Fanning, we've had the talks.

54. We've had the sessions with the counsellor.

55. We're going to have to employ a monitor for him.

56. Monitor?

57. He'll be separated from the other children.

58. The monitor will supervise him one-on-one.

59. Samuel won't cope with this.

60. He already feels so different.

61. I'll have a talk with him. I'll have a serious talk...

62. Mrs Fanning,

63. the boy has significant behavioural problems.

64. You know, Samuel doesn't need a full-time monitor.

65. What he needs is some understanding.

66. I have 24 other first graders in that class.

67. Do you want me to put them all at risk because of your son?

68. I think I'll just find another school.

69. Mrs Fanning, you can't just take the boy out of school.

70. You look after your business and I'll go and find a school

71. that sees my son as a human being

72. and not just as another problem to be gotten rid of.

73. That is very unfair. We're only trying to help the boy.

74. Please stop calling him 'the boy'.

75. His name is Samuel.

76. We can see Ruby and Aunty Claire at the park today.

77. You can play on that swing you like for as long as you like, OK?

78. Mrs Bruen hates me.

79. No, she doesn't.

80. Just need a break, that's all.

81. Don't tell Aunty Claire what happened.

82. I'll tell her later.

83. - Mum, come and look at this! - I can do it again.

84. Sam, don't bother the lady.

85. No, no, no. That's alright.

86. We have to go home and see Daddy, though, haven't we?

87. My dad's in the cemetery.

88. Oh. That's...

89. He got killed driving Mum to the hospital to have me.

90. Samuel.

91. I'm sorry. He just...

92. No, that's alright. I shouldn't have...

93. Well, your mum is very lucky to have you, then, isn't she?

94. We have to go.

95. - Say, "See you later," Katie. - Bye.

96. The artist was so drunk, he vomited.

97. Right in front of his own installation.

98. Lost all these sales.

99. You're not listening.

100. I am. I am.

101. So you lost all these sales and then what happened?

102. Ruby! Don't play there. It's wet.

103. Mum! Mum!

104. I'm gonna smash its head!

105. - Be careful. - Mum, Mum! I'm gonna smash it.

106. What would you like me to do for Wednesday?

107. I can get their birthday cakes. That's easy.

108. I was hoping Ruby would change her mind.

109. She doesn't want a joint party with Sam this year.

110. - Oh. - Mum! Mum!

111. She wants to have a princess party.

112. Mum! Mum!

113. That's OK.

114. We don't have to come.

115. You can still come.

116. Mum!

117. She just doesn't want to share the day with Sam anymore.

118. - I understand. I understand. - Mum!

119. Mum, I can go really high! Watch.

120. Maybe you want to celebrate his birthday properly this year, anyway.

121. - On the day. - Yeah, we'll see.

122. You know, Amelia, I just want you to be happy

123. and then this birthday thing rolls around

124. - and I end up feeling awful. - I don't want you to feel awful, Claire.

125. We'll be fine.

126. We'll be absolutely fine.

127. Mum! Look at me!

128. Mama!

129. - Who do we have here? - Hello, Mrs Roach.

130. You look tired, little one.

131. Have you been in the wars today?

132. A few wars.

133. He's had a big day, that's all.

134. He's just exhausted.

135. Poor little sweetheart.

136. Bugsy.

137. Come here, little girl. Hello.

138. You look tired too, love.

139. You OK?

140. Nothing five years of sleep wouldn't fix.

141. I'll put your rubbish out for you, Grace.

142. No, no, no. You've just got in, pet.

143. I'll do it now. Then it's done.

144. You can choose one tonight.

145. Where did you get this?

146. On the shelf.

147. (READS) "If it's in a word or it's in a look,

148. "you can't get rid of the Babadook.

149. "If you're a really clever one and you know what it is to see,

150. "then you can make friends with a special one...

151. "a friend of you and me."

152. "His name is Mister Babadook and this is his book.

153. "A rumbling sound, then three sharp knocks...

154. "ba BA-ba Dook! Dook! Dook!

155. "That's when you'll know he's around.

156. "You'll see him if you look.

157. "Ba BA-ba Dook! Dook! Dook!"

158. We might read another one tonight, hey?

159. But you said I could choose.

160. "This is what he wears on top.

161. "He's funny, don't you think?

162. "See him in your room at night..."

163. Mum? Does it hurt the boy?

164. Mum?

165. Does it live under the bed? Mum?

166. Mummy?

167. Mummy?

168. "How sweetly they sung, telling of the happiness and loveliness

169. "that lay at the bottom of the ocean

170. and entreating the sirens not to be afraid."

171. It's that time of night again. Time...

172. If that's what the doctor ordered, I...

173. Oh, yeah. Yeah. That's what the doctor ordered.

174. Do you... - (SWITCHES OFF TV)

175. Mum!

176. - It's in my room! - What is?

177. - The Babadook! - Oh, no.

178. No, no, no. This is not going to happen.

179. The closet doors were closed and now they're wide open.

180. It's just a book.

181. It can't hurt you.

182. You've had a big day.

183. You're just exhausted.

184. I don't want anything bad to happen to you, Mum.

185. Nothing bad's going to happen, Sam.

186. I'm gonna protect you.

187. Mum, it's 9:00.

188. He's not running a fever anymore.

189. No, no, no. My sister's gonna take him. Put it back!

190. Put it back or it goes in the bin.

191. Sorry. What was that?

192. Oh, no. I couldn't get to the phone. He was vomiting.

193. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No worries. I'll see you soon.

194. Samuel, no monster talk at Aunty Claire's, OK?

195. Samuel... no Babadook. No nothing. Alright?

196. 88. Number 88.

197. Two fat ladies.

198. Good, Elaine!

199. Another few days and someone could call out, "Bingo!"

200. Number 11.

201. Who has number 11?

202. Legs 11.

203. Hey? See what else we've got.

204. 5 billion.

205. Anyone got 5 billion?

206. Beverley's not very impressed with your bingo skills.

207. - Are you alright? - Yeah, yeah.

208. No, I'm fine. How are you? How's D wing?

209. Fine. Yeah. Just a bunch of old people.

210. You don't have to be fine, you know.

211. Just a bit stressed at the moment.

212. Why don't you go home?

213. Old cranky bitch... she goes after lunch.

214. I can cover for you.

215. - You'd do that? - Yeah.

216. I'll give you my pay.

217. Oh, no. Don't be ridiculous.

218. You've got a sick boy.

219. Life's too short.

220. You're so sweet, Robbie.

221. - You should go. - Yeah.

222. - Say hi to Sam for me. - I will.

223. (YELLS) Where have you been? You weren't at work.

224. Rung you a million times.

225. What happened?

226. Just scared the crap out of Ruby. That's all.

227. He insisted on talking to this bloody Babadook thing all day.

228. Just talking to the air... even freaked me out.

229. I'm so sorry.

230. You need to get him to see someone, Amelia.

231. It's not normal for a kid to carry on with this rubbish.

232. It's not rubbish. It's real!

233. Don't you talk to your Aunty Claire like that.

234. Where did you get those firecrackers?

235. You got them for me on the internet.

236. Well, that's the end of the internet.

237. If the Babadook was real, we'd see it right now, wouldn't we?

238. It wants to scare you first then you'll see it.

239. Well, I'm not scared.

240. You will be when it creeps into your room at night.

241. That's enough.

242. You will be when it eats your insides.

243. I've decided you're not having your birthday with Ruby this week.

244. No cake, no games. That's the end of it.

245. Samuel.

246. Ladies and gentlemen, Mum and Dad,

247. life is not always as it seems.

248. It can be a wondrous thing.

249. But it can also be very treacherous.

250. Don't worry, Dad. I'll save Mum.

251. I'm gonna trap the Babadook like this.

252. And when it's trapped, I'm gonna kill it.

253. Samuel.

254. I was just putting something back.

255. - All your father's things are down there. - He's my father.

256. - You don't own him! - (KNOCK AT DOOR)

257. Just thought I'd see how you're going.

258. Can I come in?

259. Hey, matey. This is for you.

260. My mum always got me a model plane when I was sick. (LAUGHS)

261. I'm not sick.

262. Oh. I-I thought...

263. No, he's not, actually.

264. The truth is he's so disobedient he can't go to school anymore.

265. You said that's not true.

266. How many 6-year-old boys do you know, Robbie,

267. - who still believe in monsters? - I hate you!

268. She won't let me have a birthday party and she won't let me have a dad!

269. Ohh.

270. Don't eat it.

271. The Babadook did it, Mum.

272. Go and watch a DVD and I'll make something else.

273. - The Babadook did it! - Just go and watch a DVD, Samuel.

274. (ON TV) Ladies and gentlemen, girls and boys,

275. welcome to the great Martin's DVD 'School of Magic'.

276. Life is not always as it seems.

277. It can be a wondrous thing.

278. But it can also be very treacherous.

279. In this DVD,

280. you will learn magic tricks to surprise, to delight

281. and perhaps even shock your family and friends.

282. Do you think this is funny?

283. Oh, no. No. No!

284. - (GRUNTS) - Give it to me!

285. Do you wanna die?

286. - (THUMP) - (GASPS)

287. Don't let it in! Don't let it in!

288. Don't let it in! Don't let it in! Don't let it in!

289. Don't let it in!

290. Mum, do we have to go to Ruby's party?

291. I've already got this doll, Mum.

292. Now she's got a twin.

293. They can go shopping together.

294. - Off you go. - (SAM GROANS)

295. He's just really tired.

296. Go and play right now.

297. Claire tells me you're a writer.

298. Oh, no, not really. Not anymore.

299. What kind of writing did you do?

300. I wrote some articles for some magazines, did some kids' stuff.

301. You just need to get back into it. That's all.

302. It must be difficult.

303. I do volunteer work with some disadvantaged women

304. and a few of them have lost their husbands

305. and they find it very hard.

306. How's Richard's merger going?

307. Oh, good. I mean, his workload's just ballooned.

308. I've got the kids 24/7, it feels like.

309. Tell me about it!

310. I don't even have time to go to the gym anymore. It's ridiculous!

311. That's a real tragedy.

312. Not having time to go to the gym anymore. How do you cope?

313. You must have so much to talk about

314. with those poor disadvantaged women.

315. This is my tree house. You're not allowed in here.

316. I'm not hurting anybody.

317. Bye.

318. - Thanks. - Thanks.

319. How would your mum know if it's real or not?

320. She never comes to our house.

321. Mum told Dad she didn't want to go to your house

322. 'cause it's too depressing.

323. The Babadook would eat your mum for breakfast.

324. - It'd rip her arms off. - Shut up!

325. They feel sorry for me, Claire. There's a big difference.

326. God, Amelia, as soon as anyone mentions Oskar, you can't cope.

327. - That's not true. - It'll be seven years.

328. Isn't it time you moved on?

329. I have moved on.

330. I don't mention him. I don't talk about him.

331. What strain is that on you, Claire?

332. You're not even good enough to have a dad.

333. Everyone else has one and you don't.

334. I do have a dad!

335. I listen to your life day in, day out,

336. and you never stop to ask me anything about mine.

337. I do! I want to know how you are.

338. You don't come round to our house anymore.

339. Because I can't stand being around your son.

340. I can't believe you just said that.

341. You can't stand being around him yourself.

342. Your dad died so he didn't have to be with you.

343. - That's not true! - And your mum doesn't want you.

344. - No-one wants you. - (GRUNTS)

345. What did you do?

346. She said I didn't have a dad. She kept saying it.

347. Is she alright?

348. Stay here and look after the children or do you want another one to get hurt?

349. (SCREAMS) Mummy! She wouldn't believe me!

350. Mummy! Mummy!

351. (SHRIEKS) Mummy!

352. - Mummy! Mummy! - Why can't you just be normal?

353. There is no Babadook!

354. Get out!

355. - Get out! - Samuel?

356. - Mummy! - Stop this now!

357. Get out! Get out! Get out!

358. Please help me!

359. There's something wrong with my son.

360. I think it may have been a febrile convulsion.

361. That's when the brain overheats.

362. - It always looks worse than it is. - I've never seen anything like this.

363. We'll have to wait until the tests come back.

364. All his other results are normal.

365. He's obviously suffering a high level of anxiety.

366. Very committed to the monster theory.

367. That's an understatement.

368. All children see monsters.

369. Not like this.

370. And it's getting worse.

371. He's becoming aggressive.

372. He could see a psychiatrist.

373. I can refer you.

374. Takes a few weeks to get in.

375. That'd be great.

376. But can you just give me something for now,

377. just to make him sleep?

378. Um, just until...

379. just until we get an appointment.

380. Please?

381. I haven't slept in weeks and neither has Samuel

382. and when we go home tonight, this whole nightmare will start up again

383. and I am really...

384. I'm really not coping.

385. I can give you a short course of sedatives.

386. Just until the tests come back.

387. Most mothers aren't too keen on them unless it's really bad.

388. It's really bad.

389. These can make children feel foggy.

390. Perhaps some temporary nausea.

391. They'll certainly help him sleep, though.

392. - That's for one week. - Thank you.

393. Why don't people like me?

394. Why do you say that?

395. Ruby said people don't like me 'cause I'm weird.

396. Sometimes people say things that aren't true.

397. You just need to take your medicine, have a big sleep and not worry.

398. I don't want you to die.

399. I'm not gonna die for a long time yet.

400. Did you think that about my dad before he died?

401. Just take your pill so you can go to sleep.

402. I've got the day off tomorrow.

403. Maybe we could do something, hmm?

404. Will these make the Babadook go away?

405. I think so but you have to promise me not to mention it again.

406. I promise to protect you if you promise to protect me.

407. Then I won't mention it.

408. I promise to protect you.

409. Come on.

410. Come on.

411. Can you stay here with me?

412. Yes.

413. I love you, Mum.

414. Me too.

415. (ON PHONE) Her nose is broken in two places.

416. - She may need surgery. I'll pay for everything.

417. You can't even pay your own bills.

418. Look, I really have to go.

419. Claire, I think someone is stalking me and Samuel.

420. What?

421. A book turned up at our place.

422. I threw it away but somebody glued it back together

423. and put it on our doorstep.

424. Amelia, I just can't help you right now.

425. I don't expect you to help. I just wanted...

426. If you're that worried, you should go to the police.

427. - I have to go. - (HANGS UP)

428. Claire!

429. Hello?

430. (RASPY VOICE) Mmm, Babadook...

431. dook... dook.

432. Hi.

433. I want to report someone stalking me and my child.

434. Can you tell us what happened?

435. Somebody sent me a children's book.

436. And?

437. And it contained violent and graphic images

438. of my child and me being murdered.

439. Can we have a look at the book, please?

440. I burnt it.

441. You burnt it?

442. Yes.

443. Well, unfortunately, there's nothing we can do about it.

444. He's been making phone calls to me as well.

445. What's he been saying?

446. Nothing, just making these... noises.

447. How do you know it's the same person?

448. Because of what he wrote in the book.

449. The book you burnt?

450. Yes.

451. OK.

452. Don't worry about it.

453. Did you get your things done?

454. Mrs Roach has Parkinson's.

455. That's why she shakes like this.

456. Samuel, you don't have to say everything that goes through your head.

457. Oh, it's alright, love.

458. He wanted to know so we talked about it.

459. He sees things as they are, that one.

460. Oskar was the same.

461. He always spoke his mind.

462. Do you have to keep on bringing him up?

463. Hey, Bugsy.

464. - (BUGSY GROWLS, BARKS) - Hey.

465. - (BUGSY CONTINUES BARKING) - Hey!

466. Eugh! (GASPS)

467. Don't come in here.

468. I don't want to buy anything.

469. Are you Amelia Vanick?

470. Yes.

471. I'm Warren Newton and this is Prue Flannery

472. from the Department of Community Services.

473. My son's only been away for two days.

474. He's not actually registered at Babbage Bay anymore.

475. If I could just come in and meet Samuel

476. and get you to look at these papers, that'd be great.

477. I'm just in the middle of cleaning up the house at the moment.

478. I'm sorry. There's stuff everywhere.

479. Hello, Samuel.

480. I'm Prue and this is Warren.

481. How are you?

482. I'm a bit tired from the drugs Mum gave me.

483. Not drugs. Tranquillisers... from the doctor.

484. He had a fit yesterday.

485. I'm really tired, actually.

486. That's no good.

487. May I have a glass of water, please?

488. Yes. Of course. I'll get you one.

489. It's a real mess.

490. I just found this cockroach infestation.

491. I normally have the house sprayed.

492. I did actually already have it sprayed

493. but there's this hole in the wall behind the fridge

494. and that's why I...

495. I didn't mean a hole in the wall.

496. There was a hole in the wallpaper.

497. That's where they were laying their eggs, I think.

498. We've caught you at a bad time.

499. I'll leave you with this.

500. We're required to come back in a week to talk through your options.

501. Here's my card.

502. Mum, I think I'm gonna vomit.

503. (ON TV) What was that noise I heard?
