If you loved Wer, try The Boy

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. 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 both carry the dread, late night mood tags, and they sit in Horror / Mystery / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Wer, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Boy is

English countryside, autumn, a porcelain face. A young nanny arrives, a family's strange son waits, rules are to be followed. This film works best on a cold winter night.
