Midnight Video

An archive of two chaps, a laptop and a mic attempting to unearth the lost, forgotten and overlooked in cinema.

Midnight Video 12: Paper Mask, The Wayward Cloud and Combat Shock

And so we find ourselves together once again.  Tangoing in the moonlight and sipping obscene cocktails as the sun rises.  Well to be fair if you're planning on doing that then maybe this podcast isn't for you, or maybe it is?

Show 12 sees us scrutinising the standards of early the early 90s National Health Service in Paper Mask before winging it to Taiwan for a slice of melon and some bottle top searching in The Wayward Cloud.  We then cross the pond and flit between the Indochina nightmares and Staten Island hallucinations of Combat Shock.

In addition to the reviews we have; feedback, competition time and more details about The A-Z of Film through Midnight Video.
