Nerdly » Wolverine Wednesday #80
8 hours ago · Wolverine is very much the lone wolf in the wilderness in this second outing, even letting the reader know he has been in the wilderness with a wolf pack for months. As is the way with comics nowadays there is always external influences on the character from other forms of media. Fresh off the back of X-Men ’97 and Deadpool/Wolverine it feels ...
‘Old’ Review - Nerdly
Jul 26, 2021 · A day at the beach turns into the nightmare of a lifetime in Old, a supernatural thriller that marks something of a return to form for twist-meister M. Night Shyamalan. That’s not to say it’s entirely perfect, but the film’s overall experience more than compensates for its minor flaws. The central concept couldn’t be simpler.
Nerdly » ‘Heretic’ Review
1 day ago · In short, Heretic is an extremely enjoyable chiller that deserves points for being so engagingly talky, but it doesn’t satisfy in quite the same way when all the cards are revealed and things get violent. Still, Grant fully deserves all the awards attention that’s coming his way, and the film is worth seeing just for that. **** 4/5.
‘Gates of Darkness’ Review - Nerdly
Dec 14, 2021 · Gates of Darkness is a quasi-religious horror that follows in the footsteps of films like The Exorcist and, more closely, Amityville 2: The Possession. The film tells that story of the Tate’s – a twin brother and sister who’s father ran out on his family years ago. Their mother has since remarried, and Michelle (Mary Mouser) is adjusting ...
‘A Day to Die’ Review - Nerdly
Mar 8, 2022 · A Day to Die is an action film and in terms of its action scenes, it falls around the upper middle of the DTV pack. At an hour and forty-five minutes it’s a bit drawn out but, apart from the rather unbelievable opening it pretty much works. The CGI blood is kept to a minimum and the scenes are done. The final shoot-out is nicely done and the ...

‘Dracula: The Original Living Vampire’ Review - Nerdly
Feb 1, 2022 · In fact Dracula: The Original Living Vampire is a fantastic “Elseworlds” take on the classic story that updates the outdated characters and tropes of the novel and the myriad of adaptations that have come before it with modern sensibilities. Some perhaps too modern for the quasi-historical setting of the film but that’s for later.
‘Tethered’ Review - Nerdly
Mar 24, 2022 · Tethered is much more of a two-character drama and really is to horror films what the similar two-hander A Knight’s Tour was to post-apocalyptic science fiction. Actually, with its small cast and completely isolated setting, I first thought Tethered was set after some kind of catastrophe and that Solomon’s mother was suffering radiation ...
Nerdly » ‘Red One’ Review
5 days ago · In short, Red One is comfortably one of the worst films of the year, the sort of film that makes you feel a little bit sorry for everyone involved. On the plus side, its franchise hopes are unlikely to be realised, unless there’s a job lot of Christmas Miracles floating about. Red One is in cinemas now. Tags : Bonnie Hunt, Chris Evans, Dwayne ...
