Robot Wrecks (1941)

Amusing 'Our Gang' outing
19 July 2021
Hoping to get out of doing chores, Spanky, Froggy, Buckwheat and the rest of the gang build a robot, but their mechanical man doesn't work until Slicker sells them some invisible 'magic-rays', which eventually prompts the automaton to run amuck. Typical 'Our Gang' hijinks. The best part is the complex (and heavily armed) protocols necessary to access and transport the wealth contained in the 'Club Treszuree', the price of Slicker's help. A moderately funny entry with some of the better known 'Rascals' from the end of the long running, constantly changing, series of comic shorts. Billy Laughlin (Froggy) was a one-of a-kind talent, too bad he died so young.
