One thing that’s really great about this current generation of consoles is the proliferation of indie games that have made their way to both the PS4 and Xbox One. Obviously it’ a trend started by the likes of the XBLA and Steam, but it’s only recently that there truly has been a huge wealth of […]
Written by Noel Clarke | Art by Joshua Cassara | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp Along with Johnny Red, The Troop has consistently been at the top of my list to read whenever a new issue appears. Both books have been of an as high, if not even higher, quality as Marvel […]
NXT is meant to be WWE’s breeding ground, where they build up rookie wrestlers and get them ready for the main show. What they ended up with instead is the start of something that mixes the Indy spirit with WWE money, and threatens to steal the show from the Superstars. With NXT Greatest Matches Vol. […]
Written by Joey Falco | Art by Roy Allan Martinez | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp Once again we delve into the Heroes Reborn universe, where this time around we take a look at the character of Farah Nazan. For those that came in late Titan Comics are publishing several mini-series based […]
“It’s like he was born without the gene for it.” ‘Rebecca’ is a slow burn, an episode in which as much attention is paid to the lighting around Chuck as to the scramble faced by Kim and Jimmy in their respective legal purgatories or to Mike’s dawning realization that half measures leave loose ends. The […]
“Inside every man is another version of himself.” Julie’s just running up to firing Clark when he says it, but his bullshit bit about dopplegangers doubles as a cruelly insightful observation on what’s going on all around him. Clark begging his way into a job as a gofer to avoid his father’s belief that he’s a […]
“This is exciting, like when we were young and dumb and everything was dangerous and pointy.” It makes perfect sense that a fictionalized Christopher Lambert, the former Highlander himself, is the height of celebrity in the fictional universe of The Venture Bros. His bargain-bin mediocrity is exactly the kind of pitiful societal apogee characters like Rusty […]
Written by Jean-Francois Di Giorgio | Art by Frederic Genet | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp A film in book form is the closest term of phrase I could find to sum up my first impressions of Samurai #1. On first flick through, without even reading the text, I just thought what a […]
Game of Thrones is a dark show that isn’t afraid to take its audience on a ride to hell. But what happens though when it reaches one of its darkest points and maybe takes them a little too far..? You get Game of Thrones: The Complete Fifth Season. The ever complex game of claiming the […]
Dramatic irony: when the audience finally understands what’s going on in that another character might not know. Now this gets used all the time in plays and dramatic works, and often to deepen the sense of suspense the audience now has with extra information. Think of horror movies where you know where the bad guy’s […]

Welcome to the first in a new weekly feature here on Nerdly, VOD Vault – where we’ll be casting our eye over a wealth of direct to market releases that are available on video on demand/streaming platforms such as Amazon Prime, Netflix, iTunes etc.; furthering our remit to champion those little-seen and under-publicised movies that […]

Sweeney, Joshua Mikel, Steve Coulter, Dan Bilzerian, Heather Johansen, Roman Mitichyan, Christopher Rob Bowen, Rob Steinberg, Lydia Hull, Tyler Jon Olson | Written by Max Adams, Umair Aleem | Directed by Steven C. Miller I have a love/hate relationship with Bruce Willis these days. On the one […]
Man oh man. I mean, it still doesn’t live up to the “I killed a recurring character in the first episode” act that House of Cards pulled in season two, but it introduces the ever wonderful Ellen Burstyn as Claire’s dying mother Elizabeth Hale and Neve Campbell acting as Claire’s “Doug” counterpart Leann Harvey. There’s […]
Written by Cavan Scott | Art by Blair Shedd, Rachel Scott | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 128pp Although not my favourite incarnation, I have a lot of affection for Christopher Eccleston’s all too short run as the 9th Doctor. After years without a show, when Dr Who looked like it was permanently […]
Written by Garth Ennis | Art by Keith Burns | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Paperback, 32pp Johnny Red has been, without doubt, one of my favourite non-superhero books of the last year, and possibly my favourite non-DC/Marvel book. Although I’m a Garth Ennis fan of many years, I’m not a big war book aficionado […]
Stars: Ajala Bandele, Jenny Curtis, Liz Fenning, Chris Hampton, Nils Jansson, Greg Loebell, Shanna Malcolm, Brendan McGowan, Chynna Skye, Sharon Mae Wang, Brittany Anne Woodford Brittany Anne Woodford | Written and Directed by Ajala Bandele Six friends having a weekly board game night are interrupted by a booming movie trailer voice from the sky. Inexplicably, […]
Stars: George Katt, Jen Burry, Taylor Negron | Written and Directed by Brian Ackley Reality check: Alienated isn’t a science fiction film. I know, I know, it’s got “alien” in the title, and yes, there are UFOs involved in the story. However, Alienated is as much a sci-fi film as two pieces of bread with […]
“That’s a bell you don’t un-ring.” The secret to not living in a state of perpetual regret is, of course, to make the right choice in the first place. Witness Jimmy scrambling to correct his eminently preventable error, one that saw Kim banished to document processing in the basement of HHM, and you have all the […]
“Put it into the couch, not your marriage.” ‘The Racket’ is loud, angry, and fucking hilarious. It begins with Richie taking his anger out not on his and Devon’s relationship but, at his glacially calm therapist’s suggestion, on the couch. With a tennis racket. His subsequent golden-boy claim that he’s worked out his shit is […]
“We’ll know how cool we look.” I think the Monarch just murdered Andy Warhol. Or Wes Warhammer, anyway. Who may or may not have been Andy Warhol. ‘It Happening One Night’ sadly repairs the hole in the floor of Venture Tower, but that doesn’t stop it from being one of the season’s best entries so […]
