When Amy is suddenly stricken by a conviction that she will die tomorrow, a bizarre phenomena takes hold of her social circle, where gradually each and every person is hit by the realisation taht they will not last until sunrise, despite there being no obvious reason to believe this.
Rather than riffing on the notion of contagion as conventional plague, Amy Seimetz’sShe Dies Tomorrowtakes an abstract route into the subject, one which recalls films such as Pulse, where contagion features a strong existential element in its sometimes absurdly comic, yet deeply unsettling, exploration of a group of people facing imminent death. As such, the film fits neatly into the stable of Lynchian horror, which seeks to explore genre by breaking down boundaries, as well as enhancing sensory elements such as the use of hallucinatory colour and dreamlike sequences.
