The official trailer for Affection has finally dropped, and it looks absolutely bonkers. Jessica Rothe, who you’ll remember from the Happy Death Day franchise, stars in this wild, nightmare. The new trailer is creepy as hell. It’s filled with panic, confusion, and something sinister that has yet to be revealed.

A Total Mind Melt

Ellie Carter (Rothe) has a very big problem. She does not know the man claiming to be her husband. She also fails to recognize her own daughter. Every memory of her life has vanished. And violent seizures reset her brain without any warning. She finds herself trapped in a brutal, cyclical hellscape. To break free, Ellie must uncover the truth before her mind wipes again. It is a race against her own failing hardware.

The Talented Cast & Crew

Rothe leads a cast ready for sci-fi chaos. She is joined by Joseph Cross (Lincoln) and rising star Julianna Layne. BT Meza wrote and directed this gonzo vision. Meza also produced the film under the Superconductive banner. Additional producers include Bay Dariz, Austin Walk, and JP Ouellette.

Coming to a Theater Near You

Brainstorm Media brings the madness to select theaters on May 8th. Prepare for a film that refuses to be forgotten. Unless, of course, you are Ellie. Remember, keep your secrets close and your doctor closer.
