The story begins with Spanky, who is the president of the "He-Man Woman Haters Club" with many school-aged boys from around the neighborhood as members. His best friend, Alfalfa, has been chosen as the driver for the club's prize-winning go-kart, called "The Blur", in the annual Soap Box Derby style race. However, when the announcement is made, Alfalfa is nowhere to be found. The boys catch Alfalfa in the company of Darla -- "a girl!"

This film liberally borrows gags, situations, set-ups, costumes, and plots from many of the shorts that made up the original Our Gang (Little Rascals) movie series. Some examples: - Hook and Ladder: The gang as firefighters - Hi'-Neighbor!: Building the go-cart (a fire engine in the original), knocking over the pedestrian on the sidewalk. - Anniversary Trouble: The "hi/high-sign" (the only short in which it is prominently featured) - Hearts Are Thumps: The He-Man Woman Haters Club, the gang spiking Alfalfa & Darla's lunch, Alfalfa's "bubble song." - Rushin' Ballet: Alfalfa and Spanky in drag at a ballet recital. The costumes are exact duplicates of the originals. - Mail and Female: (once again) The He-Man Woman Haters Club, the love note, "1st Messenger" Buckwheat, and "2nd Messenger" Porky. - Auto Antics: The go-cart race - Three Smart Guys: Buckwheat and Porky catching one another's fishing hook and trying to (unknowingly) reel each other in.

Quotes
Stymie:
I... Stymie... Member in good standing of the He-Man Woman Haters Club... Do solemnly swear to be a he-man and hate women and not play with them or talk to them unless I have to. And especially: never fall in love, and if I do may I die slowly and painfully and suffer for hours - or until I scream bloody murder.

Imagine a group of kids from the 1930s somehow inhabiting a modern city. This movie made me and my kids so happy that we went back to see it again the next day and bought the video when it came out. Its theatrical run didn't last very long, so most people never saw it. Give it a try, especially if you're a kid or have kids of your own.
