Director: William Brent Bell
Cast: Christopher Convery , Katie Holmes , Owain Yeoman , Ralph Ineson , Daphne Hoskins , Anjali Jay , Oliver Rice , Natalie Moon , Joely Collins , Charles Jarman , Ellie King , Jett Klyne
Plot: Unaware of the terrifying history of Heelshire Mansion, a young family moves to a guest house on theHeelshire's residence, terror strikes when a boy from the family discovers a doll called Brahms that appears to be eerily human.


My Movie Review: The movie is less scary yet still a goody in my book it's rare for me to see a horror film in the cinemas specially alone but there's something about the doll that captivates:) Brahms: The Boy II is not bad as some said there are new elements good if not better playing in this sequel about the creepy killer doll's origin that really fascinates and quite interesting:) Wishing the doll walk on its feet at first rather than just facial movements it will be more scary if we get few action on Brahms this time although Jude is quite unsettling make up for the creep!! Katie Holmes hasn't been around for such a long time and it's quite surprising to see her bring credibility to her character with good acting as a concern mother makes it easy to sympathize:) Ralph Ineson is effective as Joseph in his brief role as the title figurine named Brahms was actually being guarded by him a creepy, masked adult, who lived in the walls of a spooky old mansion' his the one who lures in with the dog at first' but there's more to him on the latter part!

Movie News Review: 'Brahms The Boy II' plays out a post-traumatic stress-induced drama that almost translates off-screen. The sequel movie attempts a comeback with killer doll-horror movie tropes but ends up killing the franchise instead. Predicting the journey of the second family to fall prey to Brahms’ creepy porcelain charms is as easy as child’s play. Brahms: The Boy II is exactly what it sounds like, a return of the titular ‘Boy’. The first installment of the film series has some seriously creepy material. It's all set in the Heelshire Mansion, a home located in a remote English country-side that has seen some real shit go down. Right from the haunted doll’s rising terror to the boy living in the walls. To the merit of the previous movie that did moderately well amongst horror fans, it had potential, potential that can totally be explored in a sequel movie. In a film this straight-forward, I wasn’t expecting any decode-worthy moments but it has this one directorial call that didn’t quite sit well. Watch Brahms: The Boy II if you’re a loyal Brahms fan or into doll-horror films, add to your watch lists or if you’re into follow-up films!
