The Hills Run Red 2 (2024), is a chilling sequel to the 2009 cult horror hit. The story picks up years after the original massacre, where the legend of the sadistic killer known as Babyface has become a dark urban myth. A group of young horror enthusiasts, obsessed with the unsolved murders and the missing film footage from the original Babyface killings, ventures into the woods where the events took place to uncover the truth. As they retrace the steps of the first group, they quickly realize that the horrors of the past are not just stories.

The new group, led by a determined filmmaker, discovers remnants of the lost film that they had hoped to find, but their excitement is short-lived as they start disappearing one by one. The iconic Babyface killer has returned, continuing his family’s twisted legacy of torture and murder. The friends’ attempt to document their findings quickly turns into a fight for survival as they’re hunted through the woods, their own cameras capturing the brutality.

The stakes are higher in this sequel as it’s revealed that Babyface isn’t acting alone. A cult of fanatical followers, obsessed with the original killings and the legend of Babyface, have been living in the woods, worshipping the killer as their figurehead. The group now faces not just one maniac, but an entire group of sadistic devotees who are willing to kill to protect the secrets of Babyface’s legacy. The twist comes when one of the survivors uncovers the true origin of Babyface—an even darker secret than anyone could have imagined.

The film culminates in a violent, high-octane showdown where the few remaining survivors must confront Babyface and his cult. But in typical The Hills Run Red fashion, not everyone makes it out alive. The ending sets up a potential continuation of the horror, leaving viewers on edge.
