Lots of extra scenes that were not needed. No spectacular camera shots. The peripheral characters were flat and annoying. I was very disappointed. : /
Also for the highlighting, there does not seem to be an exact color for the back drop of posts, hope I was able to obscure it enough.

Yes. It was overhyped. But IMO, it is not a horror movie. It is a family drama. That is the genre it belongs in. Babadook will be on Lifetime or ABC Family in the coming years, wait and see.
