I've done a couple cider batches in the last couple years using White Labs English Dry Cider yeast. This year I placed a bulk order of cider from the presser and picked it up to do a couple large batches. Unfortunately I waited too long and it started fermenting in the bottles. I poured them in, pitched the Nottingham dry yeast anyways, and waited.

It's still bubbling away, but the haze is unlike anything I've ever seen. Should I RDWHAHB at this point and let it finish?

Yeah, don't worry about it. Wild yeast in raw cider can make it look funky from what I've seen, but your nottingham should take over and it will clear up just fine.
