Dark Sky Films has set an August 22 release date for Lilly Lives Alone, a psychological horror feature from first-time director Martin Melnick. The film will be available both in theaters and via digital platforms, in collaboration with indie distributor Yellow Veil Pictures.

The story follows Lilly (Shannon Beeby), a woman grappling with the trauma of losing her daughter a decade earlier. As the anniversary of her child’s death approaches, Lilly begins to experience hallucinations that blur the line between psychological distress and possible supernatural events. The arrival of a new acquaintance, Jed (Ryan Jonze), coincides with a period of increased instability, forcing her to confront unresolved grief and buried memories.

The film also features Jeffrey Combs, known for his work in genre classics like Re-Animator, and Erin Way (The Handmaid’s Tale). Melnick also co-produced the film alongside Sarah Johnston.

Lilly Lives Alone will be available on major digital rental and purchase platforms starting August 22.
