Is there a market for unopened double 8 mm movie film? I have one 25 ft. roll & one unknown type of Kodak movie film in sealed tin without the box.

I don't think so, maybe you would find one for double super 8 (a person that is, I don't think there's a "market" for it)!

Besides I don't think you can process Kodachrome any more.

Thank you speters, maybe I can sell them as vintage tins. I can dream can't I.

Um, Kodachrome can be processed as black and white, so yes it can be used....

Check with Film Photography Project. They sell 8mm along with other film. Maybe they have information on how/where you can sell it.

It can be processed but only as a black and white.

Kodachrome processing is a very complex and toxic chemical-laden process. The last time I heard of a processing line still in operation was about 10 years ago.

Only to Black and White manually by hand. Virtually pointless.

Only for a memorabilia collector. There is no place to get Kodachrome processed anymore.

Unless the unexposed film is stored under carefully controlled temperature and humidity, most likely has suffered from old age. This will cause ASA changes and color shift. Can’t tell you what a B&W processing would look like. Who would take a chance to spend money on an old outdated film, make an important movie, spend big money to process and find out nothing worked? I would keep the unsealed package as a museum piece and display on a shelf next to an old 8mm movie camera.

Well, you can always do that at home ( I did quite a lot of that back in the days)!
