Digital Noise

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 355: THE GREATEST STACK OF ALL TIME It’s vanishingly rare that we have a week that both reviewers ‘more or less’ enjoyed every movie in our stack (I don’t think it’s EVER happened that we LOVED every title) so for John and Chris, this was a landmark of ‘yeah, this was okay’. […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 354: THAT ORCA DESERVES HIS REVENGE, AND THOSE PEOPLE DESERVE TO DIE Chris and Wright have a ton of goofy fun with this week’s stack of home releases. To what is probably the best of the Jaws rip-offs of the 70s (a low bar), to a horror movie where the joke is […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 353: FASTER DIGITAL NOISE, REVIEW! REVIEW! John and Chris have a mighty stack of home releases to review this week (again). From expressing adoration for the best soft-core filmmaker ever, to outright love for one of the best and darkest films of the 90s. From Lovecraftian slow-burn horror, to DePalma (but not […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 352: HIDDEN GEMS Chris and Wright get a stack packed with some real winners: some older all-timers that are new to one or both of them, some acknowledged classics with fantastic 4k upgrades, and at least one that has been a bucket-list item for them for a very long time and more […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 351: JOHN AND CHRIS UP ALL NIGHT John and Chris do a record-length show (for them) but in their defense, the box-sets this week, which are sizable, were covered at length. From the first four forays into hell, to some b-sides of J-horror. From a beloved modern Halloween classic, to one of […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 350: SOME WEIRD COOL STUFF Wright and Chris record a Digital Noise episode so long that it should be nominated for Best Picture this year. From a criminally underseen classic in the vein of the Coen Brothers (but not by them), to a Spanish classic where a dog plays Tommy Lee Jones. […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 349: The LAST 2024 EPISODE IN 2025 With the variable pressures of the holiday season, Chris and John are sorry that they were unable to get this Xmas Digital Noise episode up until 2025. And so it goes. But we do have some great stuff to talk about this week from one […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 348: LATE NIGHT WITH CHRIS AND WRIGHT Some off-color antics pervade this week’s episode of Digital Noise with Chris and Wright and who can blame them? It’s a tough stack. From a collection of the best-worst 80s tits and teens cheapies, to a rightfully maligned film legend’s daughter giving it her own […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 347: …FEATURING JOHN GHOLSON If John becomes a big star, what are we gonna do? Gotta retitle the podcast. Sorry Wright, it might be confusing to fans for the eps you’re on. This week John and Chris look at two battles against the gods upgraded to 4k, two french crime films from […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 346: THE MEN FROM DIGITAL NOISE Chris and Wright have a stack that goes all over the place, from deadly electrified motorcycle beach killers to Costner “classics” getting a not-so-great reevaluation. From Bowie playing a con-man working with Rosanna Arquette to rob a restaurant, to a giant spider eating people in an […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 345: TAKE THE TWISTER CHALLENGE John and Chris review a really big stack this week of home releases. Some good. Some bad. Some EXTREMELY bad. And some surprisingly wonderful. From the film that set the standard for hitman movies, to that 90s Gene Hackman thriller on a train you never saw (but […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 344: PURPLE VELVET FICTION MACHINE Chris and Wright have an epic-list this week of titles and despite having a bunch of classics on it, Wright has never seen any of them. From the purple-clad adventures of “The Kid”, to a young Tony Perkins getting a good talking-to from Henry Fonda. From an […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 343: DIGITAL DREAM John and Chris review home releases together. This is the podcast they review them on. You should listen and subscribe because then you get to hear stuff like their take on Burt Reynolds trying to do a mature romantic dramedy (not great); How you divvy up one of the […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 342: THE ENDLESS PODCAST Chris and Wright got a little carried away this week with having fun and turned in an epic-length show, but to be fair, there WERE a lot of titles to talk about. From a Russian/American hidden gem of a thriller from the 90s, to a bizarre Russian/Chinese hybrid […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 341: TWO MEN, ONE STACK John and Chris dive in and sip from the stack with some films they both really should have seen before now, and some you wonder why anyone ever saw. From a bizarre Italian erotic thriller with sax sex, to Owen Wilson playing a very Owen Wilson-esque serial […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 340: DIE FOR DIGITAL NOISE Chris and Wright have a grand ol’ time with today’s stack, despite having very mixed results. From a giant alligator Jaws rip-off cheapie to one of the best terrible films we’ve ever seen. From an 80s forgotten Gene Hackman/Matt Dillon international spy thriller to a delightful feminist […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 339: YACHT ROCK THEME SONG John and Chris take on some home releases with a look at the final Leone Western and an analysis of a director through the window of his inspiration from a beloved children’s film. We look at some folks trying to make a NEW Marx Brothers movie and […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 338: SICK WITH THE COLOR OF FEAR Chris and Wright stick their noses into the pile of home releases and come up with a look at the very best of the ‘viral plague’ thrillers now in 4k, a weirdly meta-martial arts movie from last year, a HK sorta-version of The Frighteners, two […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 337: DIGITAL WARRIORS HAVE COME OUT TO PLAY John and Chris take on their stack with aplomb and yet don’t see eye to eye on everything this week. From a stack of very different Hong Kong films that range from Police Academy variants to the HK version of Dead Heat, to a […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 336: SHATNER SAVES ODDJOB Chris and Wright do their due diligence with Digital Noise as they get into a tasty stack of releases. From Shatner as a psychopathic killer, to billions of Earths and their related supes gone forever. From a sleazy Warren Beatty in a very realistic old west, to Burt […]

GHOSTBUSTERS: FROZEN EMPIRE MOVIE REVIEW The time for busting has resumed, only whether it’ll make you feel good certainly seems pretty polarizing this time around. Ok, really every time around when The Ghostbusters have another film, even, apparently in retrospect now, the original. Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire follows the events of 2021’s Ghostbusters: Afterlife which brought […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 335: IT’S ALL GOOD Wright and Chris get that February miracle: a whole stack of movies (and a show) for Digital Noise where they actually liked everything. From a mythology for the modern age adapted to tv, to a early history of one of the world’s greatest physical actors. From an anything […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 334: DISNEY AND THEN I GUESS MOVIES On this very special episode of Digital Noise, John reviews his first trip ever to Disney (spoiler: he dug it). He and Chris go on for quite a while reviewing the rides and experience. Oh, wait, we’re supposed to be reviewing home releases on this […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 333: BAD NINJAS AND NUNS Our home release show has it all, as Wright and Chris discuss what the throat goat would have thought of Enter the Ninja, 2 Days in the Valley, The Fugitive, Oppenheimer, The Nun 2 and many more new 4k and Blu-Ray releases. All titles were sent to […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 332: WE ARE NOT KENOUGH Chris and John take on their home release stack with new entries in the Mortal Kombat universe, a look back at the film that largely started the Spanish horror renaissance of the 70s, a prequel to an all-time classic that’s maybe not quite as good as the […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 331: …FEATURING PAZUZU Chris and Wright tremble in fear beneath their huge stack of films to review this week, which makes sense since we’ve got a lot of horror and thrillers in the mix. From a 2009 remake of a questionable horror classic, to a new 4k of the central reference point […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 330: THE BIGGEST STACK EVER John and Chris take on a movie pile of record-breaking size (I think) as they dig their teeth into an international array of cinema. From a lesser-known but excellent South Korean horror, to that ’70s Robert Redford film that instantly became a classic to both of them. […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 329: TO LIVE AND TO FORGET TO POST AN EPISODE Chris and Wright have a stack filled with all kinds of stuff this week. From one of the goriest horror movies ever to come out of Italy (and that’s saying something), to a couple different L.A. Noir films that definitely require discussing […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 328: WATER STREAM SWAMP TANK John and Chris take on this Herculean task of reviewing this massive stack of home releases. From a 4k upgrade to one of John’s all time fave superhero movies, to them disagreeing whether a new horror comedy is one of the best or worst ever. From giving […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 327: DOUBLECROSS! Chris and Wright get up to shenanigans while they review this giant stack of home release. Check out our thoughts on a set of some of the best worst movies ever and see if they can talk more about a miniseries than the video game its based on (spoiler: they […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 326: JOHN STORY 3: SUPERCRITIC Chris and John have a towering stack of home releases to review that range from all-time HK action classics, to the most surreal yakuza films ever made. From the latest but not greatest in a long-running boxing franchise, to aliens from another world fighting dinosaurs on Earth. […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 325: IT’S NOT ABOUT SPHERE, IT’S ABOUT FEROCIOUS WOLF Chris and Wright get a show in with pretty much all good (or variables of ‘good’) films and some real surprises and hidden gems. From a bloody and awesome samurai two-punch classic, to a film DN calls “Oceans Zero”. From Florence Pugh’s latest […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 324: CALAMITY OF CO-HOSTS It’s all about the bad-asses in this week’s episode of our home release show, Digital Noise. Whether it’s the Justice League or Robert Shaw working for Mossad, some red cap fae taking on interlopers or ALL the snakes giving a bunch of apartment dwellers the what-for, bad-assery runs […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 323: HOW TO SEXY DANCE LIKE A COCAINE ASSASSIN John and Chris tell it like it is and show you some moves in this latest episode of Digital Noise, covering home release movies and tv shows. They look at a film that they consider one of the least of the best of […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 322: THE EYE OF THE WRIGHTGER Wright and Chris review some of the weirder home releases this week, from Batman as told by H.P. Lovecraft to a Hong Kong “Fighting on the Bus With My Brother”. From a Jeff Daniels movie that seems to have slid in from a parallel universe, to […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 321: MORE FUN WITH THE NEW STACK John and Chris talk about the latest home releases with a 4k upgrade to a classic that King Kong has nothing on, a French crime film influenced by Se7en, David Lynch’s second weirdest film, the worst Batman tv show ever made (so CHRIS says), and […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 320: THAT FIST OF LEGEND MAN WRIGHT IS NOBODY’S FOOL This is a weird episode of Digital Noise. Mainly because we have not a single horror film to talk about. Sometimes it just shakes out that way. But Chris and Wright do discuss that period piece version of Top Gun movie that […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 319: WHERE DID THESE HORROR MOVIES COME FROM? John got the short end of the stack this week with a lot of, well, not terrible but certainly not real good horror films. But hey, at least they’re from around the world and hell, maybe you’re the audience for them. But we do […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 318: PAUL FEIG – MALL COP Chris and Wright can’t believe Xmas is over, what with a killer Santa in our stack. Along with that we’ve got a killer pre-teen, killer rich people, killer hackers, killer sexy cannibal teens, killer homeless people, not-so killer zombies…there’s a lot of killers on this week’s […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 317: DARK AND DEAD: DON’T WORRY, SMILE! John and Chris continue their dive into the depths of digital with their look at some more home releases. We see if one of last year’s most maligned wide-release sci-fi films is as bad as all that. We explore the later half of the 70s […]
