Mantram

Mantram is a Kannada horror film directed by S. S. Sajjan, with Pallavi Raju and Shamanth Shetty in the lead roles. As the title, meaning a sacred chant or spell, suggests, its story turns on the occult: strange happenings, an unseen presence and rituals that may either protect the living or set something dangerous loose. It is a modest regional production, best suited to viewers who enjoy straightforward ghost stories built on atmosphere and jump scares.
