HISTORY:
My "world" is 'the arts' and more specifically, music, artwork and hand crafted/decorated chinaware's.
I am not a film enthusiast but an associate has asked me to find new owners for THEIR large collection of photographic and film items ... this is one of those items, actually quite a surprise as most of the film stock is related to the Golden era of film, Disney cartoons and general interest film but this one is completely out of left field!
This dates back to the days of a "boys film night" Blue movies etc .... looks to be from around the 1980's and judging from the front and rear artwork, EXTREMELY GRAPHIC. Inspection of the film shows no magnetic stripe so I would assume the viewing audience would need to make their own sound effects .... hmmm
While the world of 8mm/Super 8mm is not my area of expertise, I am doing my best to establish the condition of each item that I am listing.
I tend to be quite detailed in my item descriptions, please READ all the details to decide if this item may interest you.
Now, on with the description ...
FLESH FILM PRODUCTION - Super 8 Film
Country of manufacture is not stated on the packaging
NO Classification markings at all, just a vague sentence suggesting that it should not be shown to minors.
Full colour
NO sound (add your own sounds!)
Title: Living Doll
Catalogue # 203
Most likely this is a 1980's release, well before the days of internet based pornography but it appears to be just as explicit (no blurring of the scenes or part thereof)
The runtime is not stated on the packaging but this is estimated as 140 feet length, on a single 5" reel which I am estimating to be only 3~4 minutes run time - a quickie!
Content description
Explicit single male-female couple, multiple positions with closeup's (judging by the photographs - see my test viewing comments below too)
COSMETIC CONDITION:
Very good
Film stock and 5" reel are undamaged, leader is fitted
Outer cardboard packaging is in very good condition and there are no personal writings at all.
NO undue smells from the film (vinegar etc) with just a hint of musk!
I have given the cardboard case a "sterilisation spray" in any case.
TESTING:
I have now setup the projector (BOLLERO P840T) and the screen, an old USA DA-LITE Flyer portable setup. Sound is built into the projector.
I personally do not like the Bollero that much, it will only fit small reels and seems quite "fiddly" to intially feed the film but once loaded up on the take-up reel, all is good.
Film looks to be clean and in good condition, sprocket holes are not damaged.
I only ran the film for the first minute or so to observe the colour and to confirm that there is no sound.
Unlike most of the previously tested films, the colour is pretty good and not dominated by the Red end of the spectrum.
Film gets into the subject material almost immediately after the leader, there isn't any title or credits provided - value for money I guess ... who wants the ads, just show me the pussy!
Without going into detail, this film is EXPLICIT and wastes no time providing "entertainment". This is your more traditional one on one encounter, with foreplay - lady reading a magazine in a prone position and next thing you know, going for it like rabbits! Very closeup, no blurry bits and nothing left to the imagination. At least in this film the guy does take the lead but very soon the lady takes control - steamy!
Again, as with the other R18 XXX movie I have, I tried to take an on-screen photograph but there is so much "action" that I just couldn't get a nice "clean" photograph but rest assured, if the viewer wants hard core porn, this movie will not fail you.
In my opinion, after this very brief test, I am happy that this film has largely been unaffected by time and the environment, it plays very well!
I am very fastidious and careful with these films and I have now packed it back into the original cardboard box AND sealed the film within clear plastic - waiting for a Super 8 film buff to enjoy!
