COMING UP
DARK FREQUENCY
A chilling new horror film from Shady Dawn Pictures director Ryan Callaway (seen on Prime, Tubi, and more), starring Marissa Malone, and a powerhouse ensemble cast.
After a near-fatal suicide attempt, troubled teen Mary (Madison Sovak) is sent to OASIS, a residential treatment center, where she hopes to heal. But something sinister lingers within its walls, and as Mary begins to uncover the truth, she realizes she may not make it out alive.
Marissa Malone portrays Emma Grace, a longtime resident of OASIS trapped at Level 2. Shaped by a chaotic home life and deep-seated trauma. Emma’s need for control makes her unpredictable—one moment disarmingly kind, the next fiercely combative. Her constant conflict with others keeps her from moving forward, but in a place like OASIS, standing still might be the most dangerous fate of all.
Dark Frequency is a haunting exploration of trauma, survival, and the unseen horrors that refuse to be ignored. Coming April 2025.
