Oh Boy!!!

Trailer: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ytxEldPKnyA

When a young family moves to the Heelshire’s residence, terror strikes when a boy from the family discovers a doll called Brahms that appears to be eerily human.

Whilst not a very scary movie. The Boy II still has some creepy elements, that being with a very creepy and victorian design of Brahms and not much else. The scares come when Brahms doesn’t move or the audience doesn’t see him move. But when the audience see Brahms move, for example his eyes move to look at the camera, breaking the fourth wall. The movie loses alot of its scare factor and creep factor that the first one kind of had. Whilst not being a scary horror movie in itself. I like the idea behind the first Boy movie. You never actually saw Brahms move and for me that gained extra points. Yes, the audience saw him disappear but we never saw him physically move. The cast in this movie did excellent with the material they were given. Although, Christopher Convey is great as the young boy who befriends Brahms and slowly starts to become under control by Brahms.

The Boy II has no really memorable scenes other than the opening burglary scene, wheere the main family get burgled. Thats the most terrifying scene in the movie and even that isn’t scary. The scene doesn’t even involve Brahms, the main plot hasn’t even begun and from this point the story and the scares become begrudgingly worse. The ending is absolutely piss-poor, I sighed at the ending of this movie, it tried to lead on and go somewhere, but too be honest nobody really cares. I mean no body asked for a sequal, even though I enjoyed the first one. I would never have asked for a sequel.

Overall Brahms: The Boy II has no redeeming qualities going for it other than the creepy design of Brahms. The cast all do a great job with what they were given but unfortunatley it wasn’t good enough to save this movie. For a horror movie, it was not scary and expected audiences to be suprised at some overly obvious and cheap jump scares. I found Brahms: The Boy II to be a piss-poor and lack luster sequel.

I rate this movie a mediocre 4/10. I found myself getting bored at parts of the movie and looking at the time. Although I did find the design of Brahms a little creepy and the opening scene intrigued me and did scare me. This sequel did not need to be made.
