It seems like forever since we saw the first shots of Daniel Radcliffe in Horns.

But now, after its premiere at TIFF, we finally get a look at him in action as Ig Perrish, a man persecuted for a crime he didn’t commit who wakes up one morning with horns (that only he can see) that give him an amazing power (and curse) over people.

It must be said, I, as a big fan of Joe Hill’s book, had my doubts about Harry Potter in this role but in the clip he certainly seems to be up to the part… facing off against an uncredited David Morse.

Directed by Alexandre Aja, director of movies like Switchblade Romance, Mirrors and, em, Piranha, we have hopes that it will be the right mix of horror, character and comedy moments that Hill’s work needs.

Horns also stars Juno Temple, Max Minghella, and James Remar and will be out soon…

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
