This feels like a movie trailer from a dream of a film that doesn't exist.

...what an amazing trailer.

[StormLaker]

Used to have this movie recorded on a VHS tape as a teenager. I loved it- great move. Haven't seen it in 30 years!

[macmediaandmore]

It's too bad they never made any more in the series. Love the movie.

[jackcowgill]

One of My Favourite Films of All Time!!! I first saw it when I was in High School and I was amazed by how good it is. I love the 80s cheesiness and History references

[christianlowensprung]

One of the best movies ever made. They should restore this to HD. Pure art.

[PJKP]

As a kid, I never saw it, just the trailer. But my imagination filled in the blanks.
Do you wanna be a hero, indeed.

[swanseacarpetcleaning]

Who else loves the theme tune too 👌
Ahhh love the 80s, wish I could go back 😏

[harrisonvickers]

biggles is a great book they should have more biggles movies for everyone to enjoy the best stories ever in history

[TheSemtex]

Everybody remembers this at the time as a bad film, yet it's a bloody great film that has lasted the test of time.

[TheRetroShed]

Takes me back! I remember hiring this on VHS a few times. Not a bad little adventure movie. :)

[anushkapabla]

Love this film, used to hire it every week from the video store and knew the  booking code off by heart,   eventually persuaded my nana to buy me the video and got it on dvd and blu ray

[shinyphil]

Love that film. Massively underrated in my opinion.

[mark.a.carlin]

This has to be one of the greatest films ever, who ever done this trailer needs to be shot. best film 10/10 trailer -90

[vauxhalldotnet]

So much 80s in one package its shocking.

[rp]

Seriously underrated. Too many critics take it out of context

[ScotsGal]

Brilliant movie ..I had it on video as a kid ....fun fact: Queen bassist John Deacon provides quite a bit of music for the film

[brianwhedon]

Why can't Hollywood reboot a movie like this.
IT HAS SO MUCH POTENTIAL

[Wintis_Swizzle]

“Let’s show this sausage guzzler what this thing can do” Not my words, Biggles words. Love this film ❤️

[johnnyskinwalker]

Just realised it's with the actor playing in the Roger Corman Fantastic Four and the actor that was in the She-Wolf of London TV show. Both had a similar vibe/look to them and both have been little seen after a few projects.

[MattSingh]

The final scene is/was such a great setup for a sequel. Shame it bombed at the box office thus no follow-up. A wonderful film though, very atmospheric and quite dark in places despite also being very fun.
