If you loved The Boy, try Stay Alive
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Stay Alive has roughly 4.8× fewer votes than The Boy — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by William Brent Bell, and they sit in Horror / Mystery territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Boy, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Stay Alive is
October midnight, neon glow from a CRT screen. A video game opens on a countess with a blade for a smile. One power cord, one corpse.
