A demon as old as the world is summoned in Lily’s Revenge, a practical effects-driven Spanish folk horror film inspired by the mythological she-demon Lilith.
Watch the gory trailer below, which looks like The Craft meets Evil Dead by way of Midsommar.
Set during the 1999 autumn equinox in Madrid, the film follows Lily, a pale and withdrawn young woman who travels with her friends to a remote forest cabin to be initiated into witchcraft.
As preparations unfold and night falls, the ritual begins. But when Lily collapses mid-ceremony, she awakens bound, injured, and alone—unaware that the true purpose of the gathering is far more sinister. Lily herself has been chosen as the sacrifice.
Nothing, however, goes as planned. A demonic laugh echoes through the forest. Alliances fracture. Lies are exposed. The ritual turns violently against its creators, unleashing a force that cannot be controlled.
Manu Herrera directs from a script he wrote with Javier Fernández Moratalla, exploring themes of blind devotion, hidden motives, and the terrifying cost of belief.
Maggie García, Patricia Peñalver, Eve Ryan, Elena Gallardo, Mike Fajardo, and Antea Rodríguez star.
Lily’s Ritual is due out this year. Black Mandala is handling international sales.
