The Devil-Doll (1936)
cool
I was pleasantly surprised with this movie. It drew me in and kept my attention. The special effects were very good. The fact that the shrinking of the people was just a subplot was totally cool. I would like to see it again.
Dirkie (1969)
powerful
I saw this movie in 1979 with my mother. I believe I was 13 at the time. It had been renamed "Dirkie". Images of this movie have never left me. I have been trying in vain to find "Dirkie" on video for many years. Through a web search I see this wasn't the original title. I remember Dirkie cooking eggs on a large rock. At one point two bushmen found him and revived him. They served him a meal and after eating it, Dirkie hurled insults at them thinking they had roasted his dog. Offended they left him. Just then his dog comes running up but it was to late; the bushmen would have nothing to do with him. The most memorable scene was Dirkie walking in a circle blinded by the snake and holding a flyer his father had dropped for him to find. "My father loves me he will find me....My father loves me he will find me..........."
