Super 8, 600', color and sound.

I bought this Derann release at this year's Blackpool convention. They showed this at Blackpool in 2019, and that was the first time I saw it. So this will remind about Blackpool for sure :-)

I really liked the cut down which I found to be very good. The story is quite simple and is very suitable as a cut down: Two friends (or are they really friends?) join a car rally to London for very old classic cars. The race quickly turns into an internal competition between the two with increasingly dirty methods.

It was a very good print with few faults and good colors.

Eivind, that looks like a new print. Defiantly one of those films that i think would work better as a good half hour version. I have only seen this once on the TV many years ago but never found a good 600ft copy, they were always sold before i got there.

Well done Elvind, it really is a good cutdown and captures the film brilliantly, the rivalry between the two characters is funny too. These prints do suffer from soft focus though which was a shame from Derann, most suffer but its still worth a watch, Mark
