Delving head-first into nostalgia and boasting a cast us genre-loving folk will appreciate, Max Reload and the Nether Blasters will be heading our way on home release in the new year.

Check out the trailer here…

When Max discovers the legendary lost instalment of the Nether Game series, in Max Reload and the Nether Blasters, he accidentally unleashes the ancient ‘Curse of the Ages,’ turning friends and family into possessed ghouls hell-bent on destroying civilisation. It’s now up to Max to figure out how to beat the dark forces of The Nether before it’s game over for humanity.

“It’s kind of a love letter to old vintage video games and new video games and horror and the whole genre,” actor Greg Grunberg (Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker) told us of the movie when we spoke to him about it earlier in the year. “It’s amazing. It’s such a blast.”

Directed by Scott Conditt and Jeremy Tremp, the movie stars Grunberg alongside Hassie Harrison (Yellowstone), Joey Morgan (Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse), Joseph Reitman (Happy!), Kevin Smith (Clerks), Lin Shaye (Insidious), Martin Kove (The Karate Kid), Jesse Kove (Cobra Kai), Wil Wheaton (The Big Bang Theory) and Tom Plumley.

Dazzler Media presents Max Reload and the Nether Blasters on Blu-ray, DVD & Digital from 24 January.
