Anyone wanting to pay off some Holiday Bills?.... I am looking for a feature length S8 print of "Help!" starring the Beatles, if anyone has one that they are willing to let go.

Was "HELP!" ever released as a feature on Super 8? All I know of is a trailer that Red Fox Films put out on a Beatles Trailer reel. If there was a feature I would love to have more info about it.

Hi Brian,

I seem to remember seeing a full length print on Ebay some years ago, but the auction went beyond what I thought the print was worth. (I think it ended at over $250.00). Have not seen it since.

I have never seen "Help" but "Hard Day's Night" on Ebay went for over $400-

I've never seen Help! in super 8 either -- it exists in 16mm, but it's super rare -- and most of the prints out there are RED. However, rumor has it that IB Tech prints were made and may exist somewhere....

Thanks for your reply's. I believe it was released in S8 by the same company that released "Hard Days".

I don't think Hard Day's Night or Help! were ever officially released... they must be some kind of bootleg prints... which is fine with me as long as they look OK...

Hard Days Night was released and in several catalogues at one time. I think I have seen prints of Help! offered in super 8 but I have never seen them for sale officially.
