This was released in Australia in Oct 1964 on a double feature
with KISSIN COUSINS the Elvis Hillbilly musical. The duo did pretty
fab biz because Elvis films were all the go here, and FLIPPER was
in release, and The Beatles feature HARD DAYS NIGHT was on
every other week. In fact these films basically alternated in
cinemas everywhere, week after week. In between HOOTNANNY
HOOT and BYE BYE BIRDIE we had a lovely time with all these
films...TIKO is a shark version of Flipper. Charming in a native Jay
North kinda way. Some cinemas also ran RHINO just to spice up
the international flavour. That is, if they weren't screening HATARI,
or SAMMY GOING SOUTH.....all in release here at the same time. I
think you could shuffle reels among all these films and still get the
same result. Great fun for 10 year olds. Did someone also say
FASTEST GUITAR ALIVE or THE OUTLAWS IS COMING too? maybe MAYA or even HOLD ON? TOBY TYLER? This seemed to
be the 1964 movie diet here.
