DTVC Podcast

Ty from Comeuppance Reviews is back for his monthly spot on the pod. First we're looking at film helmed by DTVC favorite Byron Mann, "Dark Asset." Is it better than his turn in the Seagal flick "Absolution?" Then with "Black Lotus," we're firing up the Grillo again with another Frank Grillo flick. Finally, our spotlight on a fight looks at the end fight between William Forsythe and Steven Seagal in "Out for Justice."

Todd Liebenow from Forgotten Filmcast is back on, this time to discuss "Riot," one of the three R's of Gary Daniels and PM Entertainment. We start by looking at the Christmas movie, and what may count or what doesn't. Then with "Riot," we start with overall thoughts, then break down the highlights of it, like the fantastic Spiro Razatos stunt work, and Patrick Kilpatrick's Irish accent.

"DTVC Extra" are shorter solo episodes that I'll be posting on some weeks in addition to the main podcast. In this episode we're starting our look at the Beverly Hills Cop franchise with "Beverly Hills Cop" and "Beverly Hills Cop II." For the first one, I look at how the film started as a Stallone vehicle, then moved to Eddie Murphy, and why it all works so well and is one of my favorite actioners ever. Then with the second one, I look at why it worked too, and how if the film was made today, they'd tack on another 45 minutes to it. I also talk about an experience I had on the Flix bus from Boston to NYC.

Ty from Comeuppance Reviews is back for his monthly spot on the pod. First we're looking at the great Chuck Norris in his newest film, "Agent Recon," a low budget DTV affair on Hulu. Then with "King of the Killers," it's a case of some great names, but for some reason the movie doesn't work. Finally, our spotlight on a fight looks at the famous Zack and Slater fight from "Saved by the Bell."

"DTVC Extra" are shorter solo episodes that I'll be posting on some weeks in addition to the main podcast. In this episode we're finishing our look at the Rambo franchise with "Rambo" and "Rambo: Last Blood." For the first one, I look at why there was such a big delay after part III. From there I talk about the elements of this that worked so well. Then with the second film, I also try to get into why there was a gap after the previous film, and then I talk about what worked and what didn't for me.

In this episode I'm joined once again by Will from Exploding Helicopter, as we revisit Craig Fairbrass with another double feature of his films. First we look "Dead Cert," a British gangster film involving vampires. It sounds like a great concept, so why didn't it work? And then for the second film, we look at the Tubi original "A Violent Man," where Fairbrass really shines in the lead role.

You can find Will and the Exploding Helicopter podcast on iTunes and other major podcatchers, and you can go to his site, https://www.explodinghelicopter.com/ for all things Exploding Helicopter, including links to social media, like his fantastic Twitter account.

"DTVC Extra" are shorter solo episodes that I'll be posting on some weeks in addition to the main podcast. In this episode we're starting our look at the Rambo franchise with "First Blood," "Rambo: First Blood Part II," and "Rambo III." For the first one, I look at why this one works so well, and what Stallone's career was like before it. For the next one, I get into how this film helped create the action ecosystem of the mid-80s to the mid-90s, and how it spawned a bunch of DTV clones shot in the Philippines. Finally with the third, I get into where this was off in terms of the Soviet war in Afghanistan, and how that affected its reception.
