Brahms: The Boy 2

Brahms: The Boy II is a 2020 American supernatural horror film starring Katie Holmes, Ralph Ineson, Christopher Convery and Owain Yeoman. A sequel to the 2016 film The Boy, it is directed by William Brent Bell and written by Stacey Menear, the respective director and writer of the original film.

After a traumatic home invasion, Liza and her son Jude are left deeply shaken. Jude becomes mute, and Liza suffers from nightmares. To heal, they move to a remote estate with Sean, who is Liza’s husband and Jude's father. While exploring the woods, Jude finds a buried doll called Brahms, which he becomes unnervingly attached to. Soon, strange events begin happening in the house, with Brahms seemingly influencing Jude’s behavior. Jude, who has been silent since the attack, starts speaking again, but only when he is alone with Brahms. Liza notices increasingly disturbing signs, including Jude writing new rules for Brahms, as well as drawings that suggest violent tendencies.

Liza grows more unsettled, especially after a violent accident involving a visiting cousin, Will, which seems to have been caused by Brahms. Despite her concerns, Sean and their therapist believe that Brahms is helping Jude cope with his trauma. Liza’s suspicions deepen when she learns about the mansion’s dark history and the previous family’s suicide. She also finds even more disturbing notes, indicating that Brahms wants to harm her and Sean.
