Seven-year-old Chloe never leaves her ramshackle suburban home unless under the watchful eye of her paranoid father. Instead, he trains his daughter to adopt an assumed identity if she’s ever separated from him, or to hide in a well-provisioned panic room if he should not return from one of his infrequent forays outside. However something clearly isn’t quite right with this weird family dynamic and Chloe is determined to find out what exactly lies outside the door her father is so frightened of.
I originally saw Freaks way back in February at Frightfest’s Glasgow event and since then the film has been percolating in my brain and given that it’s out now on DVD and Blu-ray it’s the perfect time to revisit the film and confirm my suspicions…...

"We're all that's left!" An official trailer has arrived for an intriguing indie sci-fi film titled 3022, the latest from producer / director John Suits. It's hard to tell if that title refers to the year, or something else. The film is about a crew of four astronauts stuck on a dying space station after Earth experiences a cataclysmic event. They watch this happen, then spend the rest of the time trying to figure out what to do and how to survive. Starring Omar Epps, with Kate Walsh, Miranda Cosgrove, Jorja Fox, Angus Macfadyen, and Audrey Looye. This really doesn't look too bad. Way too many lens flares being used, but otherwise seems like a much better take on the concept from The Cloverfield Project about people trapped in space when Earth suddenly goes bye bye. I really hope it's better! Check out the first look below. Here's the first official trailer...

Preacher is one of my favorite series currently running on TV and it's going to be released on Blu-ray and DVD October 4.
The first season takes a while to get going, mostly because of character development but it really gets going. Lots of gore and is damned hilarious in spots. Very interesting characters as well. Can't wait for season 2. Read more about the upcoming release below.

News reaches us this morning that this years Glasgow FrightFest has undergone a line-up change. Due to shifting release dates, the Stephen King shocker Cell is to be replaced with the World Premiere of John Suits’ Pandemic. And honestly, I for one couldn’t be happier.
Why? Well Pandemic director John Suits was also responsible for the 2014 FrightFest flick The Scribbler which, if you’re a long time reader of Nerdly, you’ll know that I gave a whopping 5 out of 5 to after its screening. And not only that, it was my number one movie choice for the Entire year… So to say I’m excited to see Suits’ next movie is something of an understatement.
Pandemic is a science fiction thriller featuring non-stop action from a first person shooter perspective as the all-star cast of Rachel Nichols (Star Trek, ‘Chicago Fire’), Mekhi Phifer (Insurgent, Divergent), MIssi Pyle (Gone Girl), Alfie Allen (John Wick,...

Struggling to truly understand the equally powerful and painful emotions that drive distinctly different personalities to commit deceptive and at-times destructive acts towards themselves and those around them can be a harrowing process. When those clashingly diverse personalities are living within the same person, that battle can be even more difficult to overcome. But actress Katie Cassidy enthrallingly showcased the strong willpower her character, Suki, drew on in the new independent thriller, ‘The Scribbler,’ to overcome the conflicting personalities within her. The film, which was directed by John Suits and written by Daniel Schaffer, who based the script on his own graphical novel of same name, grippingly showcases Suki battling [ Read More ]

Despite acknowledging that The Scribbler boasts a title fitting only the wussiest superhero imaginable, this indie graphic novel adaptation somewhat holds its own against bigger Marvel/DC bullies who command the comic book genre. It’s not easy for a little fish to swim with the sharks, as even larger-budget films like The Spirit couldn’t hack it, but Dan Schaffer’s multiple story layers are able to provide enough groundwork for director John Suits to build a heavily saturated, psychotically seedy world around. There are certainly heroes and villains, but not in the way comic book movies have taught us to recognize, which is somewhat refreshing with so many spandex-clad hard-bodies running about and being all disgustingly charming – give me a cynical, conflicted hero any day of the week.

The Scribbler was originally a graphic novel by the same name by Dan Schaffer of London England. Schaffer has an interesting career starting off as a political cartoonist before moving to comics by writing and illustrating the series Dogwitch in 2000. Four years later came what Schaffer considers to be a more serious phase in his artistic direction with The Scribbler meant to illustrate the dangers of mechanical thinking in an organic world. Having not read the Gn this film was viewed with no preconceived notions or familiarity with the storyline at all.

I’m Scribbling as Fast as I Can: Suits Unsuited for Comic Book Adaptation
Within minutes of its meager running time, which opens with a disorienting barrage of monotonous narration, John Suits’ The Scribbler makes good on the asinine promise of its silly title. Starting out as producer, Suits has a trio of other direct-to-dvd quality horror titles under his belt, this time adapting a celebrated graphic novel by Dan Schaffer with a handful of notable names in the cast that would indicate some semblance of worthwhile quality, but alas, there’s nary of whiff of enjoyable screen time in this tonally awkward, amateurish handling concerning a disorder that’s been long out of pulp fiction fashion for several decades.
