Boy in a Barrel?

So I love D.a.r.y.l, however there was another movie similar to it that I haven't a clue as to what it is called. All I remember is that the boy in the movie I'm talking about showed up outside this lonely older ladies home inside of a big barrel. She didn't know what it was until she opens it and finds a boy curled up in the fetal postion and she like brings him to life by puting water in the barrel or something like that and him like comming out of it and I think at the end of the movie she has to put him back inside of it and say goodbye. Can't really rememeber.

It has been years since I've seen this so I might be getting some stuff wrong, and this is all I really remember about the movie. I was a kid then. And for years I kept going to the video store and picking up DARYL thinking it was the movie I am talking about and it wouldn't be.

Any Help?

D@mn right! That's exactly what the OP is thinking of!

Won't that be grand? Computers and the programs will start thinking and the people will stop

Yes this is Konrad, watched it recently and unlike DARYL , it did not hold up the test of time really well. It's a TV production I guess and it feels like it.Really cant compare it to Daryl...

I thought that was in Daryl. Weird

Does Konrad have scenes where a kid is taken to a cabin or old house/shack with wooden floors?

Is there an open casket scene that takes places outside in a somewhat wooded area?

Not sure if this is part of DARYL or other movies that people confuse with that movie.
