Episode 062 Pt 1 - Accident Man, Jailbreak, Cold Skin

We hit some problems when recording this week. Originally we'd planned to record two whole episodes but nearly an hour into the session we discovered that Mike's part of the conversation wasn't recording, for some reason! Luckily we were able sort out a work-around and carry on, and the result is a tonne of reviews that we've split over two parts. In this first instalment there is the usual DTV Chart, Coming Soon section and three main reviews: ACCIDENT MAN, JAILBREAK and COLD SKIN.

Episode 061 - Female Fight Club, 11 Blocks, Once Upon A Time in Venice

Welcome to the first episode of The DTV Digest to be hosted by Podbean! You can find all our previous episodes on thesmokinglamb.com page on Soundcloud. We have decided to split away from our big brother and strike out on our own!
This is a fortnightly podcast which aims to bring you news and reviews of films which didn't make it to the cinema and instead went straight to DVD, Blu Ray or streaming media (DTV is an archaic acronym meaning Direct to Video, but is still apt for our purposes!).
 
This week, host Mike is joined by Richard Hawes and Tom Joliffe, and between them they look at Female Fight Club, 11 Blocks and Once Upon a Time in Venice - among lots of other DTV goodness!
