I also saw this movie as a kid, and it was one of those movies that left a firm impression on you, and was one you didn't forget. The scene where he thought he was eating his dog was one of those scenes that stays with you.Its very heavy for a young audience, but I do seem to remember that later on he finds his dog, and realises he acted like a jerk. Further on, when those looking for him find the tribesman that fed him, he tells them he's 'Full of bad spirits' or something like that. I'm not sure, in this age of digital knock-em deadness, that it would hold up with a modern audience, but at the time I certainly found it an engrossing story of survival.
