What is this movie?? A girl falls in love with a pile of rocks that growls at her when she talks to it. . .?
This was from the late 70s or early 80s, & it was on a basic cable channel (RTV I think) within the past month. Some dark, lumpy, leaf creature invades the front hall of a family's house & some men had to (slowly) chase it out & across the lawn with torches. Meanwhile a preteen girl with long blonde hair decides she loves this creature & goes to visit it in the woods near her neighborhood, but the creature is now a pile of rocks that growls at her when she talks to it. This takes place on some sort of residential island & she has to leave, but vows to come back & eventually does a few years later. She just keeps going back to this grumbling rock pile & telling it she'll set it free & that she loves it. I feel crazy for even asking this question. . .

"Brenda"
originally aired Nov. 3, 1971
IMDb review:
A bratty girl befriends a moss-like monster. Or, you can interpret this story as I do: as an impressionistic portrait of a lonely girl, where the monster is some important part of Brenda herself; as the monster seems to be the only entity she has any meaningful relationship with, it only underlines her loneliness, and I find this very poignant. Laurie Prange ... plays it very convincingly. The teleplay keeps things appropriately ambiguous: Has the monster always been on the island? How responsible is Brenda for stirring it to life, and if so, why? There's no shock ending; the monster doesn't 'get' anyone in the end, and viewers are more than adequately left with an unsettling impression that, when Brenda returns to the island, the monster will return, too, with a vengeance.
Hulu has it. I found a link to it here:

It's preceded by "Midnight Never Ends", as in its original airing.
