"Terrific! I've been looking for this movie [Madoff 2016 4-Part Mini-Series] for years! I could have gotten it from overseas at a site I wasn't very sure about for $63, but I knew it would come out in the US SOMEtime! Thank goodness for Sunshine Vintage Movies! I was a happy camper when I received the movie, and watched it immediately. The video and audio quality of the DVD was great - just like when it was on TV so long ago. Can't wait to watch it again and again! :o)"

"'Tribes' with Jan Michael Vincent and Darren McGavin is one of my wife's favored movies since it came out decades ago on VHS. The movie quality from Sunshine is excellent, playing even clearer and better than the original vhs when it was new. With both my wife and I having served in our US military forces, we found this story gave a unique perspective of an "unlikely marriage" of 2 conflicting credos of duty/patriotism/military service to country, and that of consciencious objection. The characters posessed qualities of equal strength, determination and genuine belief in their views. Despite a minor communication misunderstanding, Sunshine Vintage Movies is an outstanding company with great prices, quality and very fast delivery. Thanks Sunshine!"

"George C. Scott's "Beauty & the Beast" DVD from Sunshine is better quality than I anticipated. A bit shaky beginning scene, slightly out of focus, but settles nicely into reasonable resolution. Barring complete restoration, can't ask better than that, particularily for the price. The movie is my favorite version of the story, albeit its last scene is a tad disconcerting where the age difference seems visually exaggerated. All in all, a very good, made for TV, film. Thanks, Sunshine."

"It was a real treat to watch Tribes again after 50 years! The audio & video quality was very good. I saw Tribes in the '70s when I was a teenager & even then it struck me as a movie with a powerful anti-war theme. The movie was made in 1970 with the Vietnam war still ongoing & was very unpopular during the peace & love generations of the '60s & '70s. Darren McGavin was one of my favorite character actors & he gave a superb performance in the movie as the drill instructor Gunnery Sgt. Drake. Jan Michael Vincent & Earl Holliman were excellent as well. Thoroughly enjoyed seeing the movie again & having a copy of it now. None of the streaming services carry it so thank you so much for the opportunity to see it again!"

I have not been able to find this movie on dvd until I found Sunshine Vintage Movies! I was a little hesitant at first, wondering about quality etc. Arrived today and I couldn't be more pleased!!!

"I just received "It Happened One Christmas" from you on DVD. I have the movie I taped off the air on television in the early 80's & the tape still plays but is in very poor condition as is the VHS player also. I understand that this copy is in the same 240 lines of resolution that TV was showing on VHS tapes in the days it was recorded. It takes a few minutes to adjust my eyes from the 1080p we are watching today or better. But I'm glad this movie was not lost in time. Good movies are hard to get & keep today with the junk that is produced for "entertainment" on the market. THANK YOU for saving this snip of time gone bye."

"I have been searching for The Flim Flam Man for many years! It was one of my husbands favorite movies. This year 2022, My husband was diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer. My usually jovial, happy guy was now depressed, I went all out to find the movie, but to no avail until I found Sunshine Vintage Movies, I was over the moon with excitement! I couldn't believe my eyes. When we received the DVD I noticed it was VERY WELL-packed to prevent any breakage. The clarity of the movie is awesome, he watched it four times in two days, it got him out of his slump, and every time he seems down we pop in the Flim Flam Man, it always improves his mood. I can't thank you enough he is on his way to recovery now, just a few more radiation treatments to go, but because of you I have my happy guy back."

Anyway, it was good feeling movie and I tried ordering from everywhere with no luck till sunshine movies came along. I had ordered it from somewhere else on VHS and it was awful purple color on the top... I may order it again from here as I am sure the quality would be better than anywhere else, as it was as good as it could be from that long ago! Thank you SVM I will order more stuff from you!"

"I've played pinball for over 45 years and also play competitively. I like to collect pinball related DVDs. A rare pinball movie is Tilt from 1979 starring Brooke Shields. I saw it was available here and took a chance with no expectations. I was extremely pleased with Sunshine's communication and professionalism. I liked the letter they sent with the DVD. The DVD came in a plain snap case and the DVD had a printed label on it describing what it was. I'm glad there was a menu. I was very pleased with the quality from the disclaimer at the beginning to the credits at the end. I give the audio quality a 10 and the video quality a 9 only due to the limitations of the medium and to no fault of Sunshine. Really the video could be a 10 - it was very good to watch - some fine print at the end credits couldn't be read. I was very pleased with this transaction! Thank you Sunshine Vintage Movies!"

"I recently ordered the movie "A Sunshine Christmas". I kid you not when I say I have been looking for this movie for YEARS. I can remember watching it and the original Sunshine back in the 70's. They were two of my favorite movies and have not seen them since I was a kid. Happened to stumble across this site while doing a search for it. I was thrilled! I was also extremely pleased with Sunshine's communication and professionalism. Watching it again after so many years literally brought tears to me eyes, brought back so many good memories of when I was younger and watching it with my sister, who is no longer with us. Thank you so much for providing such a valuable service, I definitely will be back!"

My LP VHS cassette was degrading to the point where it was unwatchable. This DVD from Sunshine Vintage Movies looks to be a transfer from VHS but it's pretty good quality nonetheless. Quite frankly, it's the ONLY place I've found this movie and I'm pleased with my purchase."

I am sincerely grateful that you had it, and could provide a copy for me... worth every cent that I paid for it. Truly. As for the audio and video quality, the audio is great, not a lick of problems! The video itself, however is a little lacking, that is it lacks clarity, you know just kinda has a slight fuzziness to it, like the old vhs tapes, but, mind you, I'm not complaining at all! I realize full well that this is an old, hard to find bit of artist treasure, so, if it ain't perfect, who cares!!! I'm just glad to have it; and say again to you: thank you very, very much."
