NEON, who is behind both The Lodge and Parasite, announced today that they have acquired worldwide rights to Amy Seimetz’s apocalyptic existential thriller She Dies Tomorrow, an official selection of the 2020 SXSW Film Festival.
She Dies Tomorrow stars Seimetz’s frequent collaborator Kate Lyn Sheil as Amy, a woman ravaged by the notion that she is going to die tomorrow which sends her down a dizzying emotional spiral. When Amy’s skeptical friend Jane (Jane Adams) discovers Amy’s feeling of imminent death to be contagious, they both begin bizarre journeys through what might be the last day of their lives.
Sheil appeared in Ti West’s segment of our V/H/S and his The Sacrament, as well as Adam Wingard’s You’re Next. Seimetz also starred in You’re Next, as well as our A Horrible Way to Die and Ridley Scott’s Alien: Covenant. She notably directed Sun Don’t Shine and “The Girlfriend Experience”.
She Dies Tomorrow is produced by Seimetz and Rustic Films’ trio David Lawson Jr., Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead.
