What do you do when the person you have been grieving suddenly walks into the kitchen and starts making breakfast? That deceptively ordinary, yet chilling image sits at the centre of Another, writer-director Andy Chen’s feature debut, a science-fiction horror mystery in which bereavement gives way to something far harder to explain. Starring India de Beaufort and Bob Morley as a married couple separated by death, the independent production is heading to Tubi FrightFest in London for its UK bow on Friday 28 August. De Beaufort plays Joey, an author struggling after the death of her husband Ben, a physicist played by The 100 star Morley. Her life is abruptly overturned when Ben reappears one morning, apparently alive, well and behaving as though nothing extraordinary has happened. Rather than providing Joey with an easy reunion, his return begins to destabilise her understanding of what she remembers and what is happening around her. The official festival description presents Another as a combination of science fiction, mystery and horror, using practical effects as Joey's reality starts to come apart. Chen has cited filmmakers including M. Night Shyamalan, Christopher Nolan and Denis Villeneuve among the creative reference points for the project. That's a conspicuously ambitious trio for a first feature, though the simple domestic starting point gives Another a more intimate way into its larger science-fiction questions. Precisely how Ben has returned, naturally, is being kept under wraps. The supporting cast brings some familiar genre faces into the mystery. Doug Jones, whose credits include The Shape of Water and Pan’s Labyrinth, appears alongside Heather Langenkamp, forever closely associated with Wes Craven’s A Nightmare on Elm Street. Anna Akana, known for Jupiter’s Legacy, Let It Snow and Ant-Man, also stars. Chen co-wrote the screenplay with Alexander Hernandez-Maxwell, with Artin John and Kealani Kitaura producing. The film was made independently through Chen’s Locust Garden Pictures, outside the traditional studio system. The Los Angeles-based filmmaker and cinematographer has been working professionally since 2012, shooting music videos, commercials and other film projects. His earlier body-horror short The Spider attracted considerable online attention, while Chen is also the co-founder of filmmaking platform and community CinePacks. Another screens at Tubi FrightFest on Friday 28 August 2026 at 4pm. Tickets and festival information are available through Tubi FrightFest: frightfest.co.uk/
