DVD Synopsis

Savage Sam is the sequel to the successful Disney film Old Yeller. This time, the boys take off after a band of Apache kidnappers who have snatched the children of lazy neighbor Bud Searcy (Jeff York). With their true-blue bloodhound Sam, the kids take off with Brian Keith to take back the missing children. The viewer may be confused with the lightheartedness that accompanies the gravity of such an abduction and then is abandoned in favor of a more serious flavor later in the film. Norman Tokar directed this uneven feature that fared far less better at the box office than is predecessor. ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide

Wonderful sequel to Old Yeller. Mom and Dad are not in this one though, they're off somewhere. Their Uncle played by Brian Keith of the original Parent Trap comes to help when Tommy Kirk, Kevin Corcoran and their friend are kidnapped by Indians. Sam is Old Yeller's offspring and helps track the boys. Very enjoyable family fun. My girls actually requested this one!
