Features: David Axe, John Valley, Morgan Shaley Renew, Caylin Brooke Sams, Peter Castro, Cleve Langdale, Brendan Thompson, Aaron Blomberg | Directed by Sarah Massey
With a filmography that includes the likes of Bae Wolf, House Monster, and Lection, David Axe is a filmmaker who loves the story of making a movie as much as the story which the film tells. He is also aware of the poor reception his works have received, responding to such criticisms with an eagerness to learn so that he can “get good.” His intentions of improving are so set that he pledges to make one movie every year, continuing with this task until he makes one that is considered good.
Create or Die is the work of director Sarah Massey, who documents Axe’s learning experiences which coincides with his latest feature, Acorn. As his feature depicts a terminally ill filmmaker who wishes to put all...

2022 has been, yet again, another fantastic year for Dtv (or more accurately “direct to market”) movies. There have been some great films on VOD, streaming (yes I’m including streaming premieres this year too) and on digital so, as per previous years here on Nerdly, I’ve compiled a list of My personal top 10 of the best direct-to-market titles of the year, be they VOD, streaming or digital downloads. The only criteria is that we’ve covered the film here on Nerdly And I’ve seen the film myself. This list takes in all the films that never made it to cinemas with the list in order of release date not preference, with the month of release listed alongside each film. And man was this list Hard to cut down to just ten films… as it is each and every year!

We recently reviewed Bae Wolf from writer/director David Axe, a filmmaker who got his start in features writing The Theta Girl, from director Christopher Bickel who – unlike Axe – hasn’t followed up that 2017 film with any further features. Instead Bickel has, in the intervening years, spent his time making shorts and music videos. Now however Bickel makes his return to filmmaking by directing and co-writing Bad Girls, a girl-gang homage to the films of Russ Meyer and Jack Hill.
Bad Girls follows three “troubled” women – Val (Morgan Shaley Renew), Mitzi (Senethia Dresch), and Carolyn (Shelby Lois Guinn) – who, after spending their youth in and out of detention halls and jail, work together at a strip club. However the...

They had me at the name! It doesn’t take too much to interest me to be honest when it comes to a film. Get a good title or good artwork for a poster or cover and I’ll give it a watch. Luckily for Bae Wolf, I liked the name and it had a cool poster, so I was there for it!
A twist, well a whole new take on the classic Beowulf story, Bae Wolf is set in the year 500Ad (or thereabouts) where a monster is terrorizing the drunken revellers of Heorot. So a fearless princess goes in search of a hero to save her people. But that hero guards a secret more dangerous than the monster.
