Dance of the Dwarfs (1983)

Dance of the Dwarfs (1983, USA) C-93m. ** D: Gus Trikonis. Starring Deborah Raffin, Peter Fonda, John Amos, Carlos Palomino, Arthur 'Turko' Cervantes. Laughable horror adventure set in the South American jungles, but filmed quite obviously somewhere in North American woodland. Anthropologist Raffin hires boozing pilot Fonda to look for missing colleague, finds tribe of blood-thirsty dwarf-like creatures instead. Highly pretentious, although atmospheric finale compensates a little. Based on a novel by Geoffrey Household. Alternatively spelt DANCE OF THE DWARVES, and also known as JUNGLE HEAT.
