Does anyone know where I can get a copy of the Million Dollar Rip-Off??

Sorry Vicky but i did a search for you on this movie and its not available on vhs, dvd, or shown on tv. Maybe with the popularity of CATM on TVLand some station will show this movie.

I haven't seen that movie in ages...... I saw it once on T.V.

I saw it on TV once, too, and it wasn't terribly good. But it's a good chance to see Freddie in a dramatic role

I must be stupid because I don't know what the Million Dollar Rip Off is? Did Freddie have a part in it or what? Please someone fill me in - thanx!

Yeah Freddie played the lead role as Muff Kovak. I never scene the movie but i have heard it wasnt that good. Its a drama.

It sounds familiar. I'm wondering if I might've seen it yrs ago & forgot about it?

The Million-Dollar Rip-off was a made-for-TV movie ... I can't remember if freddie was a good guy or bad guy, but I remember Freddie looking really thin ... no laughs or anything... just a crime-drama type thing, obviously.

He plays an ex-con who devises a plan to steal millions of dollars.

I have a clipping out of the TV guide of Million Dollar Rip-off, too, hillbilly! I put it in a scrapbook and still have it. I never saw the movie, though. I was a kid at the time and we only had one TV. My dad had control over the TV in the evenings and we ended up watching some other stupid show. I'm glad he liked Chico & the Man or else I would never have seen it!

This needs to be released on video so folks can see it. There is already alot of demand (On here anyway).
