Plot Synopsis and Trailer Insights for Daddy’s Head

This disturbing piece of cinema follows a young boy and his stepmother who become troubled by a spectral figure that looks like the boy’s late father.

The trailer depicts a young boy, Isaac, who is forced to say farewell to his gravely ill father on his deathbed. Following his father’s passing, Isaac becomes withdrawn, leading to speculation about the depth of his bond with his stepmother.

Shortly after the loss, Isaac dreams of his father beckoning him to the woods beside their home. Practically compelled, he ventures into the forest.

Ultimately, Isaac claims that his father has returned but now takes the form of a strange creature. His family grows alarmed as they witness Isaac’s peculiar behavior and the drawings he creates of this being. The figure, which resembles a demonic apparition, infiltrates their lavish home, leaving them feeling trapped in their wealthy mansion.

Is this entity a benign manifestation of Isaac’s father, or is it a sinister spirit? Such unsettling questions linger after watching the film’s two-minute and twenty-second trailer, which debuted on Shudder’s YouTube channel on September 20, 2024.
