B.C. Rock (1984) FULL MOVIE (Upscaled)

The Missing Link (French: Le Chaînon manquant) is a 1980 French–Belgian adult animated comedy film written and directed by Picha. Though it was not as successful as Picha's previous film, it was entered into the 1980 Cannes Film Festival.

In 1984, an American dub was released known as "B.C. Rock". It was released in select theaters and home video by Almi Pictures. Major changes to the film included newly written dialogue by the comedy duo The Funny Boys (Vallely and Schmock), recut footage, different voices, different instrumental score, the absence of the narrator (with the main character telling the story), and nearly all the songs written and performed by Leo Sayer have been replaced by songs by other artists, including:

Clarence Clemons - "Feline Blues"
Genesis - "Afterglow"
Hall & Oates - "Alley Katz"
Leo Sayer - "Eating" / "Taking the Brakes Off" / "Shake the Hand" / "It Hurts Every Time But We Love It"
Rick Derringer - "Afraid of the Night" (duet with Brewer)
Rick Wakeman - "Flyin'" (duet with Pepper) / "Steamhole Dance" / "War Mongers"
Kevin Kelley - "Ant Battle"
Steel Breeze - "This Time 'Round" / "Step By Step"
Triumph - "Empty Inside"

Though several bootleg DVDs are available online, there are currently no plans for an official DVD release. Bob Weinstein and Harvey Weinstein, future founders of The Weinstein Company, are billed as "Music Talent Consultants". Relative newcomer Miramax Films received a "Special Thanks" billing.

Unfortunately, the film was poorly promoted on video and faded into obscurity. However, this version manages to have a cult following to this day.
