[5.25/10] The Other Side of the Door (2016)

The Other Side of the Door (2016)

Quick Review: Set in India for a change, the film definitely succeeds in creating a truly obscure tone, fully benefiting from its very atmospheric location, and Sarah Wayne Callies gives a strong central performance, portraying fear and despair equally as convincing but it's the lack of real suspense, the jumpy, yet cheap boo scares, and not-so-terrifying images that turn this one into a weak ghost story unable to stand out. Watch out for the gatekeeper, tho'.

I liked it a little more than you did but generally agree. Gatekeeper was brilliant!

I liked it a lot at first, but half way through it started to become a little bit disappointing. They could have worked on the suspense a bit more. Loved the gatekeeper! :)
