Vintage Disney. Early Look At The Osmonds In The Pre Hysteria Days!
27 January 2007
I was first introduced to the Osmond Brothers in this movie, and 37 years later, I'm still a fan. I suspect few of you saw it. When I met Merrill Osmond a few years ago, I told him, I liked his performance, and he was surprised someone still remembered the movie! The story is pretty simple, the boys go to Disneyland to sing and want to visit the haunted mansion, which was new at the time. Donny gets lost, Jay goes to look for him, and gets lost also. Will the boys get back in time for the performance? The pictures costars EJ Peaker, whom I understand was popular in the sixties, but I had never heard of her. Kurt Russell appears as the Disney Employee, who is supposed to get the Osmonds to the show on time. This is vintage Disney, squeaky clean, and quaint. It features several good songs by the boys and Miss Peaker. My favorite is when they where riding on the double decker bus down main street, and singing Down On The Corner. I don't know where you would find a copy of this movie, but I'd sure like to see it again.
