They Wait (2007)

Haunted by the ancient traditions of her past, Sarah, Jason, and their young son, Sammy, find themselves plunged into a world of spectral terror upon their return to North America from Shanghai, where they had made their home for the past six years. Their journey begins with the somber occasion of a family funeral, but the veil of mourning soon parts to reveal a chilling mystery. Suddenly, Sammy is beset by ghostly apparitions, his innocent world invaded by figures unseen by others. His health quickly deteriorates, leaving him teetering on the edge of life and death. As the foundations of their reality crumble, Sarah and Jason grapple with their son's inexplicable condition, finding no solace in the sterile confines of western medicine. In desperation, Sarah seeks the wisdom of an enigmatic pharmacist, who unveils a terrifying truth. Sammy's life hangs precariously in the balance, ensnared by a living corpse in a relentless death grip. He is an innocent pawn in a spectral game that ties back to their years in Shanghai and the ominous Chinese festival of Ghost Month - a time when the gates of hell swing open, and vengeful spirits roam freely among the living. With the dawn of the final day of Ghost Month looming, Sarah must unravel the spectral riddle, appease the restless spirits, and break the deadly grip on her son. But the sands of time slip away quickly, and if she fails, Sammy will be lost to the realm of the living dead forever. In this chilling race against time, Sarah must confront the shadows of the past and the horrors of the present to reclaim her son's future.
