I am selling an extrtemely rare Super 8 optical sound feature. It is "RUCKUS" Now, tell me if this storyline is familiar ...

Dirk Benedict (Starbuck of Battlestar Galactica!) Plays a vietnam vet on the bum, who wanders into a hick town, just to find something to eat. The hicks, however, decide to give him hell, and even capture him at one point and put him in a cage, (he was in a cage in Vietnam, and this really sends him over the edge), therefore, Dirk goes on the rampage against the hicks and declares war.

Yep, it's "Firstblood" a year or more before Stallone made his famous film!

This also stars Linda Hamilton (Excorcist) is a surprisingly serious role, as well as Ben Johnson.

Please note that it has a little Kodak SP browning, but a lot of color left. You mostly notice it in the night scenes. Nice strong mono optical soundtrack and a very nice sharp image. Certainly a rare film, to be sure. A Lots of explosions, stunts and stuff.

On 3X600ft reels. Price is 70.00 US dollars, if shipped in the US, 6.00 dollars postage.

Please e-mail me if interested, at
