Taking a break from his works with Stamboel as The Mo Brothers, Tjahjanto explored the [supernatural horror](/source/Supernatural_horror_film) genre with *[May the Devil Take You](/source/May_the_Devil_Take_You)* in 2018.[12] This marks his first feature film as a solo director. Released to positive reviews,[13] the film saw him reunite with Chelsea Islan, Ray Sahetapy, and Shareefa Daanish. Later in the year, he released *[The Night Comes for Us](/source/The_Night_Comes_for_Us)* based on a screenplay he wrote as an homage to [Hong Kong 1980s cinema](/source/Cinema_of_Hong_Kong).[14] The film is the first [Netflix](/source/Netflix) [original production](/source/Lists_of_Netflix_original_films) from Indonesia[15] and received acclaim from critics with a 91% score on Rotten Tomatoes.[16] The film stars top action stars [Joe Taslim](/source/Joe_Taslim) (*[Fast & Furious 6](/source/Fast_%26_Furious_6), [Star Trek Beyond](/source/Star_Trek_Beyond)*) and Iko Uwais whom he worked with previously in *Headshot*.

Following the release of *May the Devil Take You Too*, Tjahjanto announced in October 2020 that a follow-up, titled *May the Devil Take You: Dajjal*, is in pre-production with Islan and Daanish hinting that they will be reprising their respective roles in response to the announcement.[28]
