The Might of the Daleks - Doctor Who Fan Film 

Short and effective - the effects, sets, models and (obviously) B&W feels very 60s but having moving shots, Dutch angles, and POV of the monitor Sav is watching makes it really feel like its own thing. The President's acting was definitely a high point for me

I love the fact that William Hartnell is listed in the credits, even though he was not in the film. 10/10! Hope there's more in the future

This finally brings back the fullest sense of realism in Dalek evil that we haven’t seen in so long. Very well done.

I had a dream last night that Josh gave me a tour of their Minecraft house, maybe this project is not what has been teased

Might of the Daleks is legitimately creepy film. The acting, tone is great and production design is great. David Whittaker would have approved. 👍🏻 Josh Snares and the team understood the assignment. 😎 Amazing work! I can’t wait to see whatever comes up next! Please say there will be more!

A Josh Snares DW fanfilm in 2023?! This was awesome. Oozing with style. Felt like something right out of the 60s. Such attention to detail! Super cool. It looked like it was a lot of fun to make.

The 60s called. They want their episode back. This was amazing. I got lost in it, believing I was watching one of the early era serials. So well done.

"This fight is now no longer your concern. It is ours" This was incredible. Well done to all those involved, the might of the Daleks is truly powerful.

This is an excellent prologue to Dalek Masterplan and fits right in with Mission to the Unknown giving this epic story more depth.

Wow, I can't believe that Josh Snares found the lost prequel to "Mission to the Unknown"! Very nice use of the New Series Dalek theme there at the end, and it's just masterful, the whole rest of it, I would need to make a video of my own just to touch on everything!

I like how this fits as a prequel to Mission to the Unknown

That's the thing about Dalek stories that don't include the Doctor - the Daleks win! Brilliant stuff. 😊💯

1984 meets Doctor Who. That was fun.

I'm never really one for fan films, but this intrigued me from the first trailer. Not many people do one in the style of the 60s era and you have captured that perfectly. From the little models to the Dalek wobbling about as it talks. If you're a fan of classic DW, this is truly something to behold. Well done Josh and the team!

Love love LOVE. The final piano rendition of The Dark and Endless Dalek Nights was perfection a lovely connection to modern who. The whole cast, crew and everyone should be proud of this!!!

That had me on the edge of my seat - truly capturing the pure essence of early Doctor Who. Amazing stuff - well done to all 10/10

That's the best Doctor Who story I've seen since The War Games!

That was incredible! The controls for the time destructor were very 60s who, some buttons and switches. Brilliantly done. I'm excited for more like this!...

Bravo! Everything: production values, acting, SFX, EVERYTHING was first rate!! The 60's feel was absolutely spot-on!

Josh! I'm not surprised at all that you had this in you. I love the black and white, 1960s Doctor Who style - you have such an encyclopedic knowledge of the styles and techniques they used, so this really feels authentic. The story is so true to the original series. Even though I only know you from RU-vid, I'm proud of you and happy for you.

Bravo! BRAVO!!!! Such a nice short prequel to The Daleks' Masterplan.

I love how this showcases the manipulative side of the Daleks. One of the best thing about them as villains is thay they are arguably more dangerous without a gun than with one.

This was beautifully done, so many little '60s touches but it felt properly professional. It captures that incredibly bleak feel of most of the Daleks' Master Plan. Very nice to see it was filmed here in Whadjuk Country too, I can't believe the Daleks have infiltrated even our isolated part of the world!!

This needs to be on the big screen.

Good turns from your two leads, and good wobbling during the Dalek's dialog

What a gripping lead-in to Master Plan. Great stuff! Also, the Dalek voices were nailed perfectly. So often in fan films that feature them, the voices are underwhelming. These were spot on, on par with Nick Briggs and Peter Hawkins. Love it! Thanks for making this. ❤

A wonderful homage to 60s Who. I’m sure any fan would be excited to find this as additional material on a future Hartnell box set. Thank you for making this - I hope it was an enjoyable experience for you and your team 🙂

That has to be the best live action Doctor Who fan film I've seen to date... excellent... great acting, impressive model work and sets... and two very beautiful Daleks

Great job, thought I was back in the 60's. Great effects and acting, well done

This was great fun, Josh. And a neat little precursor to the Daleks Masterplan! Loved it. Very effective usage of sets on a budget and a spot on Time Destructor prop. This definitely had the feel of 60's Who.

This is one of the best DW fan films I have seen. Really excellent!

This is one of the best doctor who fan films I've seen

Very good!!

60s Who always inspires some of the coolest fan-made projects, and I love people's enthusiasm for the era :0

Ooh this is rather good! Very Film Noir. Acting, lighting, sets, direction, Dalek voices (and the shiniest classic Dalek casings!) plus all over atmosphere top notch. I also love that it's short and punchy. Excellent work!

A great tribute to the Dalek stories of the 1960's and the people who made them possible. A true love letter to the early years of Doctor Who.

Bad things happen when the Doctor isn't around to save the day. Evocative of 1960s Classic Doctor Who and should be included with Mission to the Unknown in (hopefully) a future Daleks Master Plan release!

The Dalek Cutaway we never thought we needed. Bravo!

Brilliant. Love the fact model shots were used rather than CGI. Really keeps the authenticity of the film.

Okay now THAT was amazing! I'd love to see a video going in depth behind the scenes on some of the practical VFX work!

This was very well made! Gives the already big Dalek's Master Plan more depth

This is just absolutely wonderful. Love a fan film - especially one like this that does so much in its limited run time and executes it well. Loved the use of model shots. Really placed me in the production period. Proper old Who vibes but with a sprinkle of Twilight Zone in there vibes wise. Performances are great. Set Design is great. The Daleks are great. The music is great. The photography is great. Sound is great. Stellar effort. More please. Deserves to be on the Collection Season 3 boxset when it arrives. :)

Love the incineration effect of Nova, very much like Dracula's death in Horror of Dracula. Great work to everyone involved in the production.

Brilliant! Great atmosphere, like the best of early classic Who Love the angle at 7:48

You should be the one to take over as show runner when RTD steps down again. In just over 12 minutes and without an appearance by The Doctor, this has somehow managed to feel more like Doctor Who than anything RTD or Moffat ever produced. At the very least, RTD should be considering Barnabas Sharp as a new series composer as he's managed to combine the eeriness of classic Doctor Who music with the more bombastic style of Murray Gold, finding a happy medium between the 2 extremes. It was a little odd hearing the Dalek wheels trundling along but actually, I think it works as they obviously would have wheels and not just be floating (hence the reason they couldn't get up or down stairs for so long, have you tried taking a trolley up or down stairs? It's not impossible but not pleasant). Great work from all involved and I hope the same team can come together to do more, maybe with John as the Hartnell Doctor.

This was so much fun and captured the early 60s vibe perfectly. Genuinely eerie and disturbing, too. Really look forward to more and massive congrats to everyone involved! 🖤🤍🖤🤍

This is a product of love, and truly captures the flavor of the older serials. Looking forward to more in the future!

Bravo my dear Mr. Snares! I truly enjoyed that clip! Keep it coming!

This is great. It will look really good on your old TV. Even the incidental music fits mid 60s Who.

This was actually impressive! Well done!

Nice one. Loved the 60s style production values. Very well directed edited and nice atmospheric soundtrack. Also ( unusual for a fan film) a very high standard of acting. Don't leave us hanging Josh.....more please.

This is the best fan film I have ever seen, you captured the 60s feel perfectly

Holy hell this is so good. This has sold me on the idea of that rumored villain spinoff.

Despite the length, a very punchy story. The fan film ideal, you might say 👍 Having the Dalek say "a kindness" was masterfully done!

I loved the Mavic Chen reference, nice touch with William Hartnell's name in the credits like Mission to the Unknown

Wow I’ve always wanted to see a Who fan film in the 60s style, nice one guys, many more to come I hope.

Wow, that's spectacular. Still has the 60s feel but it's also so crisp and sexy. I love the shots and angles and blurs. All very cleverly laid out - and the script is tight too. It was only at the halfway point that I realized it tied into Masteplan and only at the end that I realized it was a prequel. There were shades of 1984 in this too. Pure class. Well done. Can you get yourself hired by Disney to do first doctor era spinoffs?

Absolutely loved this. A perfect love letter to the Dalek Master Plan era of the show. Obviously a tremendous amount of passion went into this by everyone involved. I would love to see more films released by this team!

Wow! Great work by everyone involved. Felt like truly authentic 60s Who. Beautiful direction. Thank you thank you.

That was great! I will admit it did feel something out of the 1960's and the Dalek props were great and that was just wow!

This is great stuff- and LOVE the shout out to THE FIRST and ORIGINAL Doctor in the end credit sequence - (echoes of Mission to The Unknown?) Era absolutely nailed on every point. Well done folks! If only the BBC cared as much about the IP as the fans hey?

Watched this with a nice brew and some snacks and i was thoughly entertained to the end, which came quicker than I knew. Nice work, and superb dalek voices.

Fantastic work, retains the charm of the era with shot composition and sound design.

Crikey-O'blimey!! That was superb; beautifully done 60s vibe. Beautiful model shots, great acting. Can't wait to see more....

Quite extraordinary. Such a sinister, atmospheric production. The quality of this film demonstrates the passion and expertise of those involved. Well done to both cast and crew, the result of your hard work is a terrific Dr Who short film and a tribute to the pioneers of Sixties Who. Thank you.

Bravo - a gripping storyline that transcends the limits of the budget.

Marvellous film made with care and attention to detail. Great sets and props and the 60's feel was perfect. Emotional music too.

Ooh it ties in with master plan. And it’s really sinister. Awesome. I had no idea there was a Dalek floating around here in my hometown of Perth. I must see it..

I think that just about every compliment that I cc'd an think of has already been posted by others. I can at least say how much you deserve those comments. Relatively few props, actors / actresses, and a straight forward plot, all put together to great effect.

This is amazing I felt like I was watching Dr Who back in the 6Os again

What a great prequel to the Dalek Master Plan. Loved the thematic similarities between this planet and early Skaro, great acting, social commentary and a really enjoyable short story. Well done, loved it!

This is absolutely brilliant.

oooo BRILLIANT JOSH!! Loved it start to finish. Really cool :- ) The shot 9:24 is giving Metropolis. Beautiful work!!

Absolutely amazing work! My favourite part is the sinister effect of the Time Destructor. Congrats to everyone involved. 👏🎬🎉

Good story. Good acting. Good direction. Good daleks. Excellent job. Thank you for this. More please👍

Fantastic short film. Loved the stylised nature of it. 😊

love the work! it feels like a old school universal monster movie in places' love the practical effects and everything!

Absolutely brilliant film!!! Everything from the acting to sets to the effects are absolutely stunning and y'all should be proud of what you've made!!

Great stuff, lovely vibe of despair and really creative special FX. Love the sneaky split-screen Daleks in the control room!

Great stuff! The whole vibe is perfect.

This is by far the best fan film of any I have seen, past Doctor Who even. Everything is incredible, especially that first 1.30. I found watching it at 240p puts it at peak 60s style.

Ok now my personal headcanon goes like this for season 3... Might of the Daleks, Galaxy Four, Mission to the Unknown, The Myth Makers and finally Masterplan. Really building up to the epic. in short, a fantastic short, really has the feel of a Hartnell era episode

This was brilliant! I love the story, the sets, the shots -- just purely awesome.

This is SO good! Wonderfully and faithfully retro and brilliantly realised. This could slot into any Hartnell-era Dalek series as a prologue or some such. I loved this!

Love the 1960's typwriter on the desk.

Absolutely amazing. The visuals were almost art nouveau with the lighting and camera work more than impressive. I have seen early 1920's films from European countries and the style was so reminiscent of those. The angles used for filming were artistic and very effective as was the use of focusing in and out of shot. More than anything this shows that creativity and artistic genius and win out over glossy heavily digitalised excess. It is so delightful to watch something that captures a mood and an environment through the more innate talents of the people responsible. There is too much special effects in today's movie industry. Whilst it might make for spectacle it doesn't necessary create motion and mood. The what I call Marvel motion overload. The real world from a daily perspective of life is not spectacular. If in a film all you present is spectacle than after a while I feel it loses something more tangible and important. Spectacle becomes predictable and boring. Congratulations to all who were involved in this mini masterpiece. A very impressive and powerful piece of DW drama achieved in just over 12 minutes. This was a genuinely fantastic discovery.

This fan film is the best fan film I’ve ever seen. The attention to detail into making it like the 60’s series is amazing, the actors did a great job too, it’s almost like one of the missing episodes. Well done everyone it’s superb. 👌🏻

This is an amazing work with a lot of clear love for the source. The noise of the dalek prop moving, the jakiness of it's movements. The use of model shots for the city. Even the voice for the dalek sounds similar to the dalek voices from the 60's Bravo!

Great video. Atmospheric and gripping. Well done.

Loved it! You really got the feel of that era and added something new. It felt like watching Dr Who as a kid again all those decades ago ! Bravo.

Wow! Felt like I have as watching a 60s horror thriller! Brilliant stuff!

Love the reference to the Dark and Endless Dalek Night in the score. Brilliant story.

Amazing work by the whole team. I just wish there was more

Amazing this video has captured the essence of classic who well done!

ABSOLUTELY STUNNING Extremely powerful

Fantastic job! Absolutely outstanding!

this feels like a classic serial mixed with modern themes of darkness i love it!!

'The Might of the Daleks' indeed. You got the 60s style of television down to a tee and not one minute was wasted. Well done, Josh and all involved!

Fantastic short fan film right there Josh! Love this! Captures 60s Dr Who excellently! Sooo... Another one in 2024? 👀🙌

That last shot ... Pretty sure that's Cromer! Superb!
