Image from: Captain Celluloid vs. the Film Pirates (1966)

This fun little low budget film was made by classic film buffs for classic serial buffs. Back when most classic film festivals were being held by a handful of friends in private home basements and garages. there was talk of an evil Master Duper. Film buffs did not have videotape and the TV late show did not play every film ever made, they had to go looking elsewhere. Thank goodness (a.k.a. Captain Celluloid) Blackhawk, Castle and Film Classics made 8mm and 16mm available for home use. Today, thanks to cable TV, video, DVD, IMDB and (God love them for keeping the search for forgotten films going) classic film festivals more and more titles are being saved from oblivion everyday! SUPPORT FILM PRESERVATION!!!!!!!
