'The Other Side of the Door' (2016)

Produced by Alexandre Aja and competently directed by Johannes Roberts, this rewardingly atmospheric supernatural shocker benefits greatly from its exotically far-flung Indian setting, and the malign mythology is frequently quite effectively rendered. 'The Other Side of the Door' is a viable update on the eternally plagiarised horror classic 'The Monkey's Paw', and, perhaps, having a similarly skewed vibe to Bob Clark's 70s doomy horror masterpiece 'Deathdream'. While it might also be argued that some of the shocks owe a stylistic debt to J-Horror, but, frankly, that's pretty much par for the course these days. Robust acting and plentiful demonic shenanigans make 'The Other Side of the Door' an enjoyably shuddersome trip into the darker realms of a mother's grief.
