British-Asian helmer Gurinder Chadha is turning her hand to a good old-fashioned scare. Chadha is prepping It’s a Wonderful Afterlife, described by the helmer as “My Big Fat Greek Wedding” meets “Shaun of the Dead.” The story follows a British-Asian mother whose obsession to marry off her daughter comically leads to serial murder. Lensing begins in the U.K. in February. “It’s a comic caper very much in the tradition of classic Ealing comedies,” Chadha told Daily Variety. “It’s a return for me to the characters and setting of ‘Bend It Like Beckham’ but in a different genre, namely horror, although I would say that the gore will be easy on the eye.“
