In The Pirates, Our Gang attempts to set sail on the high seas in a pirate ship built from spare parts. This little gem was one of Our Gang's more elaborate films, in which Mickey and Joe, after causing all sorts of mischief on a real train, build their own railroad, the way only Our Gang can. In 1924, the Little Rascals starred in The Sundown Limited. From fireworks tied to a cow's tail to feuding lead actors, Stage Fright is one of the funniest Our Gang short films to date. Not only do the Rascals tear up the studios but that loveable gang tears up the laughs.įrom the same year comes another silent-era Our Gang comedy- Derby Day, in which the Little Rascals, after watching a real horse race, decide to try it for themselves and stage their own race using tricycles and neighborhood pets.ĭVD #2 When Our Gang is forced to put on a play at the local school in Stage Fright, mishaps and shenanigans arise when the rascals destroy not only their lines but the stage.
#THE ORIGINAL LITTLE RASCALS MOVIE#
Every kid growing up in the '90s wanted to be part of your club.DVD #1 On DVD #1 of the Little Rascals Collection is 1923's Dogs of War, in which the Little Rascals meet the one and only Harold Lloyd after a vegetable-throwing war between rival kid gangs leads the rascals to a nearby movie studio. Most astonishing of all, though, is how every former child actor is able to perfectly recreate their expressions from the original poster.

Most child actor cast reunions are usually absent one or two members who have inevitably become too cool to get back together with the old gang - either that or they grew up to be lawyers and are embarrassed - so it's remarkable that all nine core Rascals cast members were game to revisit the movie that put them on the map - a map they then promptly fell off of. We're not sure why this comes a month after the actual 20th anniversary of when the movie hit theaters and charmed us all, but it doesn't really matter. Blake McIver, who played the annoying rich kid, recently tweeted out the finished product and proclaimed today #Rascals20th day. The 1994 big-screen remake of The Little Rascals turned 20 years old last month, and to celebrate the cast got back together to recreate the movie's poster.
