ORDINARY AND LIFELESS

Very ordinary, lifeless and below-average directed adaptation of the fairy tale with Rumpelstilzchen himself as an annoying dwarf, an uncaring cast and a very poor song. Very inadequate in the execution of the simplest of special effects, as if the makers did not care (was it too low budgeted?). Judging from the result one would not expect that professionals like director Fredersdorf (specialist in children's films) were involved in making this film.

Spooky!

This is not a good film, but it does have a certain ephemeral charm. I remember seeing it at a matinee in the late 60s or early 70s, and the title character really scared me! Don't knock yourself out looking for this film unless, like me, you like oddities, and not even particularly good ones at that.

Weird enough to be a classic

If you like weird movies, you will like this one. It's short enough to capture even the most limited attention span. It is very obscure so good like finding it. I found it on dvd and ordered it.
