| | Notes | n.b. There's another film called The Pit (1914) Sammy Snyders' character in this film is supposed to have autism. It's mentioned on the cover of the video but apparently not in the film. Since the plot is about some "perverted little kid" who feeds people who have tormented him to monsters I doubt this film will be instructive. There's also a scene where he is pushing a woman in a wheelchair across a meadow though I'm unsure whether or not she's breakfast.
