Hard-to-find films and let's find them why don't we?

I am after two films that have just come up in a book I'm reading. The first is A Guide for the Married Man from 1967 that stars Walter Matthau. I don't want to do anything drastic like buy it! The second is from a year later and is called Candy and stars none other than Ringo Starr and Marlon Brando. I think I have found a two part download torrent of the latter but it is slow and only allows one part to be downloaded at a time - then there's the risk that it's not even the thing. Found it here: http://rarelust.com/candy-1968/ which actually looks like a pretty interesting website with some bizarre and intriguing films.

A Guide for the Married Man is up on the pirate bay and has 3 seeders at the moment so should be possible to get, and Candy's up on Cinemageddon, my ratio isn't great right now but if you can't get it from that rarelust site I'll obtain it for you.

Maeve (1981)

I can't find that anywhere unfortunately, and I'm not sure if you can access the BFI site as you're in Australia, but I hope it's possible.

I'm looking for Andy Warhol's Blue Movie (1969). I've heard it has artistic value and isn't porn, honest.

There's a copy on xhamster but it's dubbed in German unfortunately.

There's a seeded version on https://btdb.unblocked.gdn/ but due to the nature of the site I don't know if it's in german or not. I'm downloading it now though so will report back when it's finished in an hour or so as I'm a big fan of porn.


Small Man Big Horse

It's only just finished as my internet's been playing up, and unfortunately it's the dubbed German version, and I can't find English subtitles for it anywhere either.

I've now obtained Candy from that site you linked to, it was slow going though so let me know if you want it uploaded and I'll put it up on mediafire.

A Guide For The Married Man? Seems bizarre to think a film I once saw on TV in a relatively normal slot on a main channel (BBC or ITV on a Saturday night) is now hard to find...

Found Kappa. Not great. Once in an ep of Gamesmaster. Despite the CGI, it's more Kes than ET.
Found most of Drifting Classroom, tonally all over the fecking shop, but also a very strange US remake - Drifting School, very bad, shot on video, with Henry Silva, Billy Drago and Bubba Smith
Extremely interested in the Teito series (been looking for them for years) and that US Drifting Classroom remake.

I've managed to grab it now, thanks!

It appears that I have found this too.

And the Teito Taisen series?

I can get you Teito Taisen - Tokyo: The Last Megalopolis 2 but the other two films are unseeded on Cinemageddon.

Edit: Ah, there aren't any English subtitles unfortunately. But I just noticed that this is on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHwRHSsypT0 , is that part of the series?

Monkeyman1138

Thanks for replying, don't trouble yourself with the unsubbed ones, probably wouldn't get much out of it. Can't seem to get a straight answer on Doomed Megalopolis, seems to be a miniseries by that name listed on Imdb, but the film on that youtube link seems to be the same length as listed for Tokyo:The Last Megalopolis. So might give a watch sometime, if I figure out which it is I'll let you know.

Yeah I saw it was up on BFI Player but I indeed cannot access it there. If anyone knows how to perchance rip off it...?

Found the Wonderful Ice Cream Suit, but what I saw of it, very TV movie-ish, sentimental. Joe Mantegna sounds like he's doing his Fat Tony voice but as a Mexican bandito.

The Touchables (1968)

I have an ok copy of this on my hard disk but a bona fide dvd seems impossible to find, just ropey DVR's. Has anyone come across a proper release of this oddity from the guy who shot the cover of Rubber Soul?

And written by Ian La Frenais from a story by Donald Cammell, no less. Pretty sure it never got a proper DVD issue - ropey DVRs seem be all one can get.

Yep, I'm coming to that conclusion. I think this on amazon raised false hopes.



I'll wait patiently as it does seem something the BFI would release a la Deep End.

Does anyone know where I can find the original Wickerman on the internet? Having a surprisingly difficult time

Hopefully this doesn't sound incredibly condescending but the title is two words not one - have you tried searching for it with two separate words?

I didn't even think of that. Honestly it wasn't showing up anywhere, so thank you!

Innocent Bystanders on YT Won Ton Ton is basically an Al Adamson movie.
Got the DVD of Sayonara Jupiter.

Imovies had Utu, Came a hot friday, and A Chorus of Disapproval but they were deleted before I could view them.

Found Blood Relatives from 1978, but realised, "why is it silly?" Oh yes, it's by Claude Chabrol.

Does anyone know where I can find Homebodies? There was a very low-res version on YouTube but the sound was all weird and eventually out of sync.

There's only a low res VHS rip available.

That would be fine by me, I think there's just something up with the one that I got, possibly an issue with how I got it off YouTube.

I found this site a while back full of mainly obscure, out-of-print films, it's where I was able to get hold of the previously impossible to find 1982 film of An Unsuitable Job For A Woman, last shown on TV around 24 years ago. The same guy also had a youtube channel with a whole load of additional stuff on it but I think that might've fallen foul of the Copyright Bastards.

Three Cases of Murder (1954). Dvd is quite expensive on amazon.
Flesh and Fantasy (1943)

Ooh, one of the films I think I asked for - but never got - is there, so getting that now.
