Would be interested in getting Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back and Alien full features. Anyone know where and how much? Do not want dubbed ones and no subtitles.

Thanks

HI Vidar, Welcome.

STAR WARS, EMPIRE and JEDI are are available in Full Length on Super 8mm in CinemaScope as is ALIEN, however expect to pay a premium for those that are no longer in print and the only one in print now is EMPIRE available from Germany via CHC.

The prices vary wildly, it just depends upon condition and the desire to own, top prices seen for SW approx £900, ESB approx £600 (possibly cheaper new but consider that the Negs been used more) JEDI approx £500, ALIEN approx £400. But note these are top prices, you may get lucky and find a print for much less although this is unlikely. Good luck in your search.

Best,
Rick

Thank you! 400 for Alien is something I would consider, but 900 is a bit high ... Where in Germany can I find this Empire print?

Thanks again. Might be the one I got a reply from a few hours ago ... I don't remember all the names yet, been looking at all the web sites I could find, so mixing things up a little ... I got a quote for GBP 600 for Empire Strikes Back ... Considering it, but money flies when you start looking and buying. Also saw Terminator on a german site, but I am not sure if it's dubbed (I suspect it might be and don't want dubbed version)
