DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 384: A HORROR START AND A ROCKY FINISH John and Chris visit the world of physical media again this week with a look at some of the magnificent and meh titles available for purchase. From one of the first films to do the Spielberg thing without the man himself and do it […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 383: WHY DON’T YOU GUYS JUST MARRY REACHER ALREADY? Chris and Wright eat gummies, drink scotch, and review physical media movies and tv shows. And they’re all out of gummies. Wait, no, there’s a huge bag. Ok, the gummy crisis is over, people, stand down. But turn up your volume to hear […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 382: RIP TIM CURRY Chris and Wright want to note that this episode, covering a wonderful doc about the history of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, was recorded before the death of lead actor Tim Curry. Otherwise you can bet we would have been talking about what an absolute treasure that man […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 381: DN SETS A TRAP John and Chris must navigate the tricky waters of the ocean of physical media every show. And this week, there’s a storm on the horizon. We take on Chris’s complicated feelings about a swingin’ 60s version of a famous detective, a film from a director Chris has […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 380: FLAWLESS VICTORY Chris and Wright review physical media and they have got an interesting stack of recent releases to tell you about today. From an upgraded release of the first faintly enjoyable video game based movie (and it’s unfortunate sequel) to one of the most freaky Japanese horror films ever made. […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 379: OUR FANTASY LIFE IS BEING JACKIE CHAN John and Chris may, to appearances here, seem to have a smaller stack this week. But with a big Jackie Chan set we actually go carefully through all the films involved. You also get to hear us decide whether a cult classic that everyone […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 378: DN THE BAND THE SHOW THE PODCAST Wright and Chris take on a mighty stack of physical releases, getting into what may be Oliver Stone’s least seen but possibly best film, a Jimmy Stewart western that fell off everyone’s radar but should get back on it, one of the best new […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 377: WITH A BONUS DISS ON LA BREA John and Chris have a mighty tall stack this week that, true to form for Digital Noise, vary greatly in quality. Heck, we even do the rare coverage of a tv season this episode! Join us for looks at Rey versus zombies and Ray […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 376: STONE COLD CRITICS Chris and Wright would have been great action heroes. Except for their physiques, lack of fighting experience, and coolness, they definitely would have stood toe-to-toe with the likes of 90s, erm, sorta stars like The Boz. Don’t you think? I mean, at least they could do the one […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 375: THIS ONE GOES OUT TO ZACH Chris vs Wright in the ultimate mano y mano critic showdown! Ok, well, not so much as both of your critics largely agree on everything in physical media we take a look at this week. From a reimagining of a long-running slasher series, to a […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 374: CHRIS GETS WEEPY John and Chris get one of those middlin’ stacks of titles. No hate. Just a lot of meh, but there is some love, especially for a film Chris actually gets teary eyed just discussing with his out of character (for him) deep affection for, and a French film […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 373: ALMOST A PERFECT SHOW Sometimes it’s just the way it plays out: the stack is just loaded with one great film after another that both critics agree are must-see titles. There are more Oscars associated with this episode’s movies than probably in any single Digital Noise episode ever. And some are […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 372: MY GOD, IT’S FULL OF TANGENTS Chris and John seem distracted this week. It’s not because we don’t have some interesting films to discuss, like one of the most popular adaptations of the Arthurian saga of all time, two love it or hate it horror films from 2025, and one of […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 371: THAT’LL DO, PODCASTERS Chris and Wright punish themselves and you with some more bad Drumpf impressions as they cover some of the best physical media coming out. With apologies to Arrow and Shaw Brothers fans for a truncated look at the really great Shawscope Vol. 4 set, we nevertheless trudge through. […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 370: Yo! DN RAPS! I swear to you as my cats as my witness, John and Chris do not even attempt rapping on this episode. If this was a concern for your continued sanity, we understand and fear not. However, we do discuss the first hip-hop movie ever made as well as […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 369 – CHRIS KNOWS MORE ABOUT JAWS THAN WRIGHT More on that title in the the third act of this typically epic length episode of Chris and Wright discussing the latest in physical media. But the other stuff you have to look forward to is legion: the film that beat out Jaws […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 368: JOHN’S BEST STACK EVER? When John picked up this week’s stack of physical media to watch for Digital Noise, he said, “Chris…this might be the best stack you’ve ever handed me”. So, the suspense begins…did they live up to his hopes? With everything from a legendary documentary about one of the […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 367: HIDEOUS MUTANT FREAK CRITICS A long time ago Wright and Chris were walking down a long and lonesome road when all of the sudden shined some shiny…physical media. And our audience said, “Give the best reviews in the world or we’ll eat your souls”. And Chris and Wright looked at each […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 366: DOCTOR LORD SIR JOHN GHOLSON ON HOME RELEASES Ok, before you do anything else, go buy the movie Man Finds Tape which is available right now on VOD. John plays the antagonist in this horror film that is getting stellar reviews and lots of attention. It’s well worth your time. And […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 365: WE PICKED THE WRONG WEEK TO STOP SNIFFING GLUE Wright and Chris review all the home releases fit to podcast about. With this mighty stack of titles, only their pure heroism and combined forces of will keep them on point (largely) to tell you about everything from the greatest western out […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 364: TWO ALL-TIMER HIDDEN GEMS John and Chris take on a small stack this week but loaded with two older films completely unknown to either of them that instantly elevate to ALL-TIMERS. Like, so good, go see them immediately, tell all your friends about them type of great. You’ll have to listen […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 363 – THE REVENGE “THIS TIME, IT’S PERSONAL” Chris exacts a terrible revenge on Wright for last week’s antics. By showing him how frustrating it is to record when you’re kinda sober but your recording partner decidedly is not. But they knock out a whole bunch of home release reviews for some […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 362: DARK DAYS FOR DIGITAL NOISE John and Chris have a mixed bag of a stack if there ever was one (leaning towards not as good) but there are a few gems in here, even if they don’t totally agree what they are. Listen to them debate this week’s home release titles […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 361: THE EPISODE WHERE WRIGHT FINALLY ADMITS HE NEEDS HELP (OR NOT) Wright and Chris take on a…interesting stack of films. Some classics that are first-timers for Wright. Some films Chris loves but apparently no one else does, especially Wright. And some unbelievable crap. But crap is often the most fun to […]

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 360: THE TOXIC SPY WHO LOVED ME John and Chris have a rare and fun assignment: go straight through the first six Sean Connery James Bond films in a newly released 4k set. Aside from that task, which transposes to some extent their feelings about the earliest incarnation of the superspy, they […]
