From the Land of the Lost producers comes a family comedy filled with mirth, magic and music about a little boy named Jimmy and his fantastic adventures with the dragon H. R. Pufnstuf.

Young Jimmy is being pursued by the evil Wilhemina W. Witchiepoo. More specifically, Witchiepoo is after Jimmy's small friend, a small, solid gold. diamond-encrusted talking flute named Freddy. Witchiepoo knows that, with Freddy in her possession, she will definitely be named Witch of the Year at the upcoming witch's convention. In Witchiepoo's pursuit of them, Jimmy and Freddy escape to Living Island, where Witchiepoo's wicked castle is located; but, Living Island is also a fantastical land of (among other things) talking animals, talking trees and talking winds. The mayor of Living Island is H.R. Pufnstuf, a talking dragon. Pufnstuf and his friends do whatever they need to do to protect Jimmy and Freddy from Witchiepoo's evil grip. Pufnstuf and his friends have to get Jimmy and Freddy off the island to their ultimate safety. In return, Jimmy may have to save Pufnstuf and all the good guys, as another of Witchiepoo's plans is to serve spit-roasted dragon at the convention.—Huggo

Jimmy runs away to be by himself after a bad day at school. He takes his flute down by the sea to relax. When he lays the flute down, it comes alive and turns solid gold with diamond studs. Plotting to steal it is a witch named Witchiepoo. Jimmy hops aboard a beautiful, magic, talking boat that wants to take him out to sea. The boat actually belongs to the Witch, who turns the boat back into a black evil craft meant to trap Jimmy and bring him to her. He escapes from the boat and makes a swim for land. A dragon named Pufnstuf sees the whole event between Jimmy and the witch. Pufnstuf and the cops (two ants named Cling and Clang) go to aid Jimmy. Jimmy ends up on the shores of Living Island (where every thing is alive) and is rescued by Pufnstuf and Co. The rest of the movie has the witch trying to get the magic flute in order to impress Boss Witch and her friend Witch Hazel, while Pufnstuf and friends attempt to find ways to get Jimmy off of the island.—<[email protected]>
