The Broken.
I vaguely remember a similar tale, it might be an Asian superstition. But if you put a mirror in front and in back of you to create a whole bunch of reflections. The seventh or so reflection is a demon version of you. Anyway, this movie kind of explores that premise with the demons escaping. It's similar to an episode of the Twilight Zone that freaked me out when I was young. It had a lady waiting on a bus and a guy chasing his double. However, where The Broken goes wrong is that nothing is resolved. It feels like half of a movie. Or Invasion of the Body Snatchers without a plot. In that Twilight Zone episode the doubles were definitely up to something sinister. In The Broken they are just there. Still, a fairly good movie to watch for the overall mood and its star Lena Headey.
