Brahms: The Boy II (2020, dir. William Brent Bell)

A family recovering from trauma rent a rural property in the grounds of a country house where a tragedy occurred. Predictable bloodless jumpscare sequel that struggles to reconfigure its villain, rules and premise from Part I. The dependable Ralph Ineson glowers in support as a gamekeeper.
