In 1983, Deborah Raffin starred in the horror movie Dance of the Dwarfs. The lovely actress delivered yet another engaging performance and she had great chemistry with her co-star, Peter Fonda. Though the film (also known as Jungle Heat and, as a nod to one of Fonda's most famous roles, Easy Flyer) is not well-remembered or typically reviewed in a positive manner, it is an assured cult classic and a very entertaining romp.
In Dance of the Dwarfs, Deborah Raffin gets a chance to display many of her talents. Besides looking beautiful, the actress got to do some things in the movie that she didn't often do in many of her other projects. Dance of the Dwarfs gave Deborah Raffin the opportunity to handle a gun in more than one scene and another sequence in the film called for her to act drunk. Yet another scene sees her getting accosted by a snake. She also, of course, has her acting chops in order as the film sees her engaging in some fantastic interplay with Peter Fonda.
Any fan of Deborah Raffin would be well-advised to take a look at Dance of the Dwarfs. It's a very fun film and it's not meant to be taken too seriously. Even people that don't normally watch horror/monster movies may still find the Raffin/Fonda combination enjoyable. Bottom line: Deborah Raffin looks so great in this movie it really should be seen by all.
