I looked around the internet and there are only a handful of places to get film new. Most places charge between $12 and $20 for a 25ft double roll. The cool part is this film is new and unexpired.
Try this place.
I, however, decided to take the cheap route and bought some old off ebay. I got four rolls of Kodachrome II 25ft (double) for about $8 shipped. The thing is the newest of theses four rolls expired in 1971. I shot 1/2 roll so far, trying to shoot some sun set footage because there is a lot of it in the film I'm going to shoot with the bolex.
After I expose the other half I'm going to send the film to Dwayne's to be developed. (From what I gather they are among the best). I've got my fingers crossed that this film is going to be okay, cause I'll save a bunch of money this way.

P.s.
Thus far my 8mm total cost has been:
$5 - Camera (actually was a gift, I didn't pay the $5)
$8 - batteries
$8 - Film
Grand Total of... 21 BUCKS!.. not too bad
