Sci-Fi film starring Paul Douglas

-Year in film: 1950s
-Country: UK

-Who in clothing 2: boys, girl shorts
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: no
-Clothing occurence: low *
-Rating:  6/10 ?
-Rating: ******
-Comment: Many (teen) boys including main character Hugo (Michael Caridia, pic 2) and at least a girl in good shorts with belts, and some boys in traditional Lederhosen, most of them with H-style suspenders. Also men in Lederhosen. Filmed in Salzburg, so probably supporting actors from Austria.

Very interesting movie, I found it by coincidence (other movies set in Tyrol) during research for today's Heimatfilm (starring Oliver Grimm, but set during winter so probably no Lederhosen).

I only checked the official clips on tcm. I assume rather few Lederhosen scenes. But more scenes in shorts.

Funny and interesting plot about an evil child and transforming kids into creatures without brains. Directed by John Gilling, also starring Eva Bartok, Leslie Phillips and Walter Rilla.

Rating 6 for now. Would be better in color.
