Plot

In the hallowed halls of an English boarding school, a young Sherlock Holmes (Nicholas Rowe) is already making his mark, astounding his peers with his uncanny deductive abilities. His life takes an intriguing turn when he crosses paths with the quiet, yet astute John Watson (Alan Cox). An unlikely companionship forms, providing the backdrop for what would become one of literature's most famed detective duos. Their youthful camaraderie is soon put to the test as they stumble upon a chilling mystery that weaves together a lethal, hallucination-inducing drug and a shadowy cult, the Rame-Tep, devoted to the ancient Egyptian rites of mummification. The plot thickens when the duo, hidden in the shadows, witness a horrifying ceremony. A young girl, entranced in a hypnotic state, is wrapped in linen and met with a fatal cascade of boiling wax. Their presence doesn't go unnoticed, and they are struck by thorns that plunge them into their own nightmarish hallucinations in a graveyard. Despite this terrifying ordeal, Holmes and Watson muster the strength to recover, their resolve stronger than ever. As the cult sets its sight on a series of British businessmen, the young detectives find themselves in a race against time. Will the youthful Holmes and Watson outsmart this ancient cult and thwart their murderous plot? This captivating tale of Young Sherlock Holmes offers a thrilling glimpse into the early adventures of the world's greatest detective, painting a rich tapestry of friendship, courage and ingenuity.
