Too bad this one isn’t ready for release in time for Halloween.  This is some creepy and disturbing stuff.  It’s one of our favorite genres–a Gothic thriller–and we just may have a new competitor for all those movies with creepy little girls.

Greta, played by Lauren Cohan (Chuck, Supernatural, The Walking Dead), is hired by an older couple as a nanny at a big, old, secluded, English estate.  But the eight-year-old boy she is to take care of comes with a list of strange rules.  And he’s not at all what she bargained for.

Is he real?  Or is something dark and sinister at work here?

Of course it is.  Hey, Chucky.  Meet Brahms.

Check out this trailer for The Boy:

Rupert Evans (Hellboy, The Man in the High Castle) co-stars.

The Boy hits theaters January 22, 2016.
