Episode 12 of the cult podcast Revolving Video. This episode the guys talk about Arnold Schwarzenegger's role in Sylvester Stallone's The Expendables. Shinya Tsukamoto's long awaited Tetsuo III, the passing of Dom Deluise and the upcoming Rotoscoped Spaghetti western ‘Hired Guns’. Along with Jackie Chans ‘Chinese Zodiac’ and news that Fox is suing an Indian company over a re-make.
Then Chris reviews The Yakuza Way, which stars the legendary Riki Takeuchi (Big Man Japan, Fudoh: The New Generation, Dead or Alive, Deadly Outlaw: Rekka). Jamie reviews The Da Vinci Code and looks forward to Angels & Demons.
All that plus some music and as usual weird news to start including a man who ate his own fingers as a protest and a stone baby. Plus they get to mention Gary Daniels (Fist Of The North Star, Cold Harvest, Knights) again.
