RUN RABBIT RUN
NETFLIX Though this Aussie chiller also centres on the relationship between a mother and a child, it isn’t in the same league as The Babadook.
With its sombre tone and focus on familial dysfunction, it’s very much elevated horror. Sarah Snook is Sarah, mother to little Mia (Lily LaTorre). After her seventh birthday, Mia begins acting strangely, developing an obsessive interest in meeting Sarah’s estranged mother (now in a care home), and insisting that she is a girl in old photos – Sarah’s sister Alice, who went missing in childhood.
