Following the release of actress Romola Garai’s writing/directing debut Amulet comes another feature from an actress-turned-writer/director, this one from Amy Seimetz. Seimetz may be widely known for Alien: Covenant or as the wife in the latest iteration of Pet Sematary. I’m more familiar with her from her roles in smaller horror films like The Sacrament and You’re Next. In Seimetz’s follow-up to 2012’s Sun Don’t Shine, she explores a curse with undetermined origins. Is it psychosomatic? Is it supernatural? It’s not a curse that does anything to your body, it’s a psychological curse, an intrusive thought. Amy (Kate Lyn Sheil), a recovering alcoholic, is absolutely certain that tomorrow she will die.
