Lionsgate has announced that BLACKWATER LANE will be released in select theaters and available on VOD and digital platforms June 21.

The synopsis: “After witnessing a tragedy on a dangerous country road, Cass [Kelly] is visited by a ghostly presence and begins to question her sanity. As these otherworldly experiences intensify, Cass is driven closer to the brink until she begins to assemble the pieces of a horrific plot against her.”
