While it’s true that insects thrive in warmer climates, They Nest dreamed up a species that can withstand the cold, not to mention turn humans into walking roach motels. Despite its dead-of-winter setting, USA Network aired the debut of New Zealand filmmaker Ellory Elkayem — later retitled Creepy Crawlers on home video — in late July of 2000. By then, the cable channel had unleashed several other “when animals attack” telefilms; feral cats (Strays), displaced serpents (Rattled) and one radioactive pooch (Atomic Dog) all took a bite out of mankind. Their next creature-feature, however, would be the first to truly get under people’s skin.
Former Melrose Place stud Thomas Calabro played yet another troubled doctor in They Nest. Infidelity was among Michael Mancini’s most glaring personal issues, but Ben Cahill is simply recovering from his recent divorce and a drinking problem. After freezing up in the ER and being placed on a forced vacation,...

“I am getting a taste of what Agent Scully must suffer.”
Boy, this season is one wild ride. Ups and downs have abounded and here on the precipice of its foreshortened run there’s still no clear thrust as to where it’s all heading and why any of it was dragged up from cold storage for another day in the sun. ‘Babylon’ is a weak, slipshod episode of television only tangentially connected to anything unusual, much less supernatural. It’s more like an excitable relative’s under-cooked Hot Take™ on the issues of the day than it is any kind of coherent story, and its treatment of Islam is a laughable hodge-podge of absolutist morality with nihilistic evil on one side and the literal holy mother on the other. A group of bearded men praying to Mecca in a hotel room during breaks from bomb-building is all the characterization they get.

Sleepy Hollow, Season 2, Episode 6, “And The Abyss Gazes Back”
Written by Heather V. Regnier
Directed by Doug Aarniokoski
Airs Mondays at 9pm (Et) on Fox
In the last few weeks, Sleepy Hollow has settled into what appears to be a fairly comfortable episodic groove. There’s a monster of the week that benefits from some truly exceptional character design, exchanges that are at times witty and emotional between our two leads, a few bits of American history warped to serve the writers’ purpose, and everything comes to a head with a well-executed action climax and a closing scene of John Noble doing something cryptically menacing. It’s a solid enough formula for the show, and it’s yielded a series of entertaining episodes following the dramatic escapes of Ichabod and Abbie in the premiere.
However one of the things that makes Sleepy Hollow stand out is that for all its...

I love a good (or so bad its good) monster movie – as you can probably tell by the number of them I’ve reviewed here at Nerdly. So when a new one comes along I’m always excited to see what “delights” they will bring. Will they do something original? Or be completely off the wall? Recently the monster movie has seen a resurgence of the “nature gone wild” format – in particular the killer shark movie. But sharks are not only mans greatest enemy, well not if low-budget horror and sci-fi are to be believed, we also have to fear spiders… Giant spiders!
From the black and white terror of Tarantula in the Fifties to the hilarious comedy horror of Eight Legged Freaks, giant spiders (and spiders...

Those faithful to Suzanne Collins' "The Hunger Games" series know the books offer up a whole new catalog of vocab terms to explain the ins and outs of Panem.
Chances are, we'll be hearing plenty of such words this month when "The Hunger Games" finally hits theaters. So, to introduce the uninitiated and serve as a refresher for those who have read the books, we've created an A to Z glossary of the major "Hunger Games" terms you need to know before taking your spectator seat on March 23.
You might want to make flashcards.

Hello, everyone. It's Friday, Frida...Woah, got possessed there for a second, sorry. And it's not even Friday anymore. Seriously, me, what gives? Anyway, it's that time of the week again. And boy, what a great episode it was. Angels, demons, monsters - You want it, it had it. So let's get started!
P.S the site where I get screen caps is down or something, and I can't find them anywhere and am too lazy to upload some myself, so you'll have to without them for now. Sorry..
No more Cas. From now on, it's Cass.
We start with Eve, going to a bar (I don't know if her vessel is a minor or not, but she's probably old enough in monster years). On the way in, she caresses some guy (Afro Guy, for the matter). Not a very normal thing to do to a complete stranger. Especially if...
