Happy Death Day star Jessica Rothe finds herself caught in a cyclical nightmare tied to memory loss in Affection, a science fiction horror movie set to make its festival debut next month.
Affection World Premieres as the Opening Night Film at ScreamFest on October 7, followed by a screening at Brooklyn Horror Film Festival on October 18.
Rothe stars alongside Joseph Cross (Lincoln) and Julianna Layne (Prodigal Son) in Affection, which marks the feature debut of writer/director BT Meza.
In the film, “Ellie Carter has never met the man who calls himself her husband, doesn’t recognize the girl who calls her mother, and can’t remember the life she is told is her own. Afflicted by violent seizures that reset her memory without warning, she is trapped in a cyclical nightmare, struggling to uncover the horrifying truth of her existence—before she forgets it all over again.”
Producers include Bay Dariz, BT Meza, Austin Walk, and JP Ouellette. Christian Henderson and Christy Walker executive produce.
Rothe most recently starred in gonzo actioner Boy Kills World and has confirmed that a third Happy Death Day may be moving forward, finally.
Stay tuned for more on Affection as it arrives.
