In issue 225 of Total Film magazine , Daniel Radcliffe gets dark and broody in bonkers fantasy Horns .

Inside the issue - which is available for just £1.99 on your iPad - he exclusively tells us all about taking on his most "intense" character yet as Ig Perrish, a twentysomething who wakes up one day and discovers he's the owner of a set of demon horns.

"He's a good person who has something inexplicable and terrifying happen to him," Radcliffe says of Ig.

  • Christian Bale as Frank in The Bride Christian Bale on exploring the more "comedic" sides of Frankenstein's monster in new sci-fi horror The Bride

"Ig's anger is a lot more on display than any character I've played. The way he lashes out at the world is much more overt than I've done before.

"And I think, frankly, it's one of the most emotionally intense characters I've ever played."

Horns opens in the UK on 29 October.
