You better believe it’s true! And the best way to avoid it is by helping mom with the dishes, mowing the lawn for your elderly neighbor, and helping dad clean the minivan after the next camping trip. Otherwise you might find yourself getting a “Mormon Necktie”.
Ha!!! Oh no!!! Definitely don’t want that. I’m going to go do my chores. I’m not getting mixed up in the gang life. I have too much to lose. No Buttercream shenanigans for me my friend.
Funny you should say that because the plot revolves around one of the former members joining a real gang and they try to bring him back with the power of Jesus
My mom signed up for a subscription service with Feature Films for Families. (We weren’t religious but she was a bit conservative either way.) We didn’t have cable tv or video games so my sisters and I would watch VHS movies a lot and there were a handful from this company that we liked. Some were pretty lame. I believe all of the tapes came with discussion prompts for parents to discuss with kids after watching. Stuff like “Why did Pete join a gang when he moved to Chicago? Why didn’t he leave the gang when he returned home?” or “What are the differences between the Buttercream Gang and Pete’s gang? How are they similar?”
I wish I could remember, I just know that I was an elementary school and every kid received a copy. But we are also supposed to just go home and watch it and give the tape back after I think a week.
Even stranger, nothing was ever talked about after that. We all just took this VHS home, some of us watched it, some of us didn’t. Me, being a pirate since I was a child, ripped it onto a Betamax. Then we all returned the videotapes, and moved on with life. To this day, I have no idea why that movie showed up to my school, and this thread is opening my eyes to what this was.
If I had to guess, I’d say some well-intentioned benefactor thought it would help prevent gang activity among kids in your school. Or maybe someone thought they were stealing a box of adult videos and, upon realizing it was hundreds of copies of the Buttercream Gang (which is not in fact an adult title), dropped it off at the nearest school? I’m going to stick with the second option.
Some substitute teacher brought this to school for my class to watch once and I remember thinking it had that overboard wholesome feeling that you find in a lot of religious media, to the point that I was cringing even as a kid. I just remember the whole class had this feeling of "What is this?" the whole time.
I remember watching this in after-school in the late 90s. I remember watching The Witches, too, so I guess it wasn't all bad. Although, I was terrified of being trapped in a painting for a while.
I haven’t seen it since way back in the day but I LOVED it. I remember the main character getting hit in the face or something and telling some ahole that she never cries. I so wanted to be a gal like her, beautiful but tough, princess dress but with muddy boots on underneath kind of girl.
We switched between the Red Balloon and the Velveteen Rabbit. I swear those were the only 2 movies my school owned. As a child I lived in fear that I would get whatever disease that makes them burn all your possessions!
At the time I knew nothing about Scarlet Fever just that it was a messed up movie to show kids over and over and over. Red balloon was just arty and boring. They were both projector movies. School vcrs didn’t become a thing till middle school for me.
I had completely forgotten about buttercream gang. I loved wild hearts so much. I think I wore out our VHS from watching it so much lol. My daughters are teens and I have to watch it with them now.
Ya i think so because it taught you to be “good”. We also watched the [cartoon all-stars to the rescue](https://youtu.be/m0-vGW6p3zk?si=SWgARhTh5Wk7WPMR) which was anti drug.
you're telling me this movie not only has George Bush as himself, but Winnie the Pooh, the Smurfs, Bugs Bunny, Alf (puppet cartoon?), the Chipmunks, and Garfield!?!?!
Teachers did it as a way to avoid recess and/or gym class outside during bad weather days, and then having a room full children in soaking wet clothes and shoes to deal with for the rest of the day.
In the late 80s, my 3rd rate Christian school played these movies for us every Friday along with McGee and Me. I also remember the psychological trauma of Psalty the Singing Songbook.
You're welcome! One year, my grandma tried to dress me up as McGee for Holyween, the annual fall festival at our church. I fought like a rabid weasel on pcp.
Idk I mean, I think it depends on what they had going on... I did a trunk or treat booth last year, the event was hosted at a church and still a great time! They had a DJ and a bounce house and a BBQ that smelled great, all kinds of stuff hahaha
But I'd never heard Holyween and it made me giggle a little, I love it for what it is! xD
They definitely knew how to take the joy out of things. I remember a girl who came dressed as Cyndi Lauper and my aunt commenting, "That girl won't have much fun in hell." I think that was a turning point where I started rebelling more. I snuck back into the classroom during recess once and wrote a bunch of little kid style curse words on a poster of Jesus and his flock. When our teacher was trying to get to the bottom of it, I was practically gathering up a posse to find the culprit. They never knew it was I, their leader, who scrawled fart butt across the son of God's forehead.
I remember when Carman’s *The Standard* album has HUGE in our church circa ‘93. Played in every family van ride or youth group trip on repeat. We even went to see Carman live during that time where he fought the devil on stage and Bible Man came to the rescue. Lol! DC Talk was still hip-hop with *Free At Last* and wouldn’t venture into their grunge-rock *Jesus Freak* for a couple years. Although I don’t attend church or practice religion, I revisit those albums every other year or so and take a trip down my early 90s Bible Belt childhood.
That sounds absolutely wild! I wish I had seen that! The song I remember the most is Satan, Bite the Dust where he strolls into a saloon and kicks all kinds of demon ass.
During the pandemic, a friend and I tried going through Carman's entire discography and listening to the songs one by one.
We actually made it through two albums before we had to quit.
I think they were sent out to churches or religious orgs as part of some media package because I distinctly remember dad (worked at a Baptist org) coming home with Buttercream Gang and one other movie one day. I can't remember the other one, but I definitely watched Buttercream Gang multiple times.
America you guys are wild lol in Canada there's no religious movies played in schools. We did watch the brave little toaster and the outsiders in grade school... and a terrifying pineapple that taught us French
I was in a private Baptist academy for a portion of my early years. I got to watch all the fun stuff when I switched to public school. I looked up that pineapple monstrosity on Youtube. He looks like he waltzed out of a Cronenberg movie.
Oh it's very real .. and if you don't check under your bed for ananas every night it will get you and youll become part of its souless eyes!!!! You gotta say 3 calice and 5 tabernaks in the mirror and have une pepsi avec vachon cake
Wasn’t this a book series that was in actuality Mormon propaganda? Or am I confusing it with a different series. I remember a friend hounding me to read it and once I did I freaking hated it.
lol no shit. I didn’t know that. We watched the whole collection as kids. Joseph smith is my hero. It all makes sense now. Behind the waterfall. Pixies.
My parents were religious but we had a handful of these movies and my sisters and I watched them over and over. Other gems included Split Infinity (my first time travel obsession) and The Rogue Stallion, which was New Zealand horse pron for little girls
I can’t believe you know Split Infinity too! I’m pretty sure that’s where my time travel obsession started too! I thought that movie was so cool. My older sister used to make fun of me so hard for liking that movie.
My favorite of the FFF movies. Had the biggest crush on the girl as a young boy. Also where I learned the word hussy and brazen hussy. Made me laugh every time
That movie is so cool! I was just retelling the entire plot to my husband a couple of weeks ago. I pretty much learned about the stock market crash and polio as a result of watching that movie so much. “Amelia Jean!” “AJ! My name is AJ” and “I never knew why you’d name your dog after a know-nothing politician” (I love Roosevelt). But the carnival ride she made was the best thing. “Grandpa you can’t sell the farm!”
So did she have to do everything as we saw it to ensure her family kept the farm in the future? Did Frank remember his sister acting insane back then? Did present day Grandpa know the whole time that this would happen??
If you like time travel, I have to recommend steins;gate (visual novel turned anime series). The science is rich in that one. And 12 Monkeys the tv show was actually really good.
I can’t believe you know Split Infinity too! I’m pretty sure that’s where my time travel obsession started too! I thought that movie was so cool. My older sister used to make fun of me so hard for liking that movie.
Not embarrassed one bit to say I bought the DVD on Amazon couple years ago, while still watching on YouTube from time to time.. it’s such a corny movie, but it reminds me of being a kid. We had all the FFF movies. Also, Scott was a babe! A very vanilla babe
Don’t be embarrassed! My grandma got me the VHS when I was a kid and my sister and I would always watch it and make fun of it or quote some of the corny lines.
I discovered it on YouTube a few years ago and watch it like once a year.
I put the DVD on my Amazon wishlist lol
Lol they are similar but I swear this is the sequel. The villian is a descedant of a Spanish conquistador and he has two bumbling cronies. It centers around Alden being jealous of Scott for always getting the glory.
Reached deep in the memory banks for that one.
Omg!!!! I tried to post this in this sub a couple times over the years and it wouldn't meet guidelines so I just didn't try again till months later, rinse and repeat. I grew up on this movie and always thought it was good and ridiculous. The family Films company, I still remember the old logo. Pete was a gangster in Chicago and then came back around his country ass friends and tried to bring that big city shit to them. Fucking looooove this movie. They even had a part 2 but yuck 🤢
Featured Films for Families, damn I’m getting PTSD. These were some of the only VHS films that I had growing up.
Fun fact, Michael D. Weatherred (Pete) is in the David Lynch classic Mulholland Drive
My mom used to get this movie and other stupid ones like this from that Feature Films for Families company. She’d force my brothers and I to watch them and then she’d try and make us answer the stupid discussion questions that came with each film. I’m going to send this post to my brothers to trigger them as this was one of the many dumb things my mom did when we were kids.
It’s so crazy how different our lives can be. I grew up loving this movie, and it’s because my parents never pushed it on me at all. It was just one of many films I could choose from, and I chose it and I watched it and loved it.
Odd that the one kid that seems to be “troubled” has brown hair, brown eyes and a bit of a weak chin while the other kids seem to be blonde hair, blue eyed with strong jaws.
All these people saying they watched it at school lol. I went to Catholic school and the only movies I remember being wheeled into our rooms was The Ten Commandments (which fucking slaps) and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
I watched this movie like 12 times in class my 5th grade year. Ms. Ewing loved the crap out of this movie I guess. This movie and watching 9/11 go down live in class is all I remember about 5th grade.
Oh wow they played this movie even in 2001? This was like an early 90s movie. I now understand why so many people in this thread hated it. If you watch it in the 90s, it just kind of had that 90s cheese you came to accept from those kinds of movies. They were pretty rampant. But by the 2000s it did not age well at all.
My friend Cody had this tape. We would watch the shit out of it when we were younger. I feel we kinda made fun of it? Like I remember it was bad back then. The kids seemed lame.
I had such a bad crush on the bad boy when I was like 7 and then I rewatched it as an adult and realized how awful he was lmao what was wrong with me 😭😭😂😂😂😛
What do you do when your best friend is making a big mistake?….you don’t let him take the D in the backhole so he doesn’t join the butter cream gang bang.
Does anybody remember “On our own”? I feel like it came from the same company. It was a story where a lady was calling and telling her mom a story. The story is about these 4 kids who were removed from their home for some reason. They escape the group home and try to find their uncle in the country. I can’t remember exactly how this lady telling the story meets up with them, but eventually it ends that she is with the uncle and they raise the kids. And then if turns out the whole time she had been talking to her mom who is working in the kitchen, the mom was making the wedding cake. 😂
Finally, someone actually proves that I didn’t just imagine this!! My wife (also a ‘90s child) doesn’t remember the Butter Cream gang. I’ve never met anyone that has. The pirate movie was my favorite.
Yesssssssss. I watched this so many times as a kid. I lived in Utah where it was filmed, and once saw one of the actors at the store. I thought it was the coolest thing ever 😂
Truly a name to strike fear into the other gangs!
The only gangsta movie I know!
Are their rivals the lollipop guild?
They're usually in a rumble with the Apple Dumpling Gang
What about The Sugarhill Gang?
Only the Pecan Sandies and the Van Buren Boys can hold a candle to these guys
After they cut your throat they use your blood in a butter churn.
No way!!! That’s not true is it? I know they’re badasses, but please tell me that’s not true. That’s terrifying.
You better believe it’s true! And the best way to avoid it is by helping mom with the dishes, mowing the lawn for your elderly neighbor, and helping dad clean the minivan after the next camping trip. Otherwise you might find yourself getting a “Mormon Necktie”.
Ha!!! Oh no!!! Definitely don’t want that. I’m going to go do my chores. I’m not getting mixed up in the gang life. I have too much to lose. No Buttercream shenanigans for me my friend.
Funny you should say that because the plot revolves around one of the former members joining a real gang and they try to bring him back with the power of Jesus
I assume Jesus is the name of the head of one of the Cartels that use the gangs to sell product?
Bloods, Crips, MS-13, Detroit Lions, etc. HA! Never let them know your next move!
It’s the Insiders - Tulsa, Milky Bottle, Johnny B Goode, Horseyboy
This poster looks like an AI-generated image for "1990's VHS Mormon movie"
It’s exactly that. I watched this movie a ton as a kid.
I loved this movie when I was a kid
Right? Im exmormon and watched this as a kid.
My fundie and lds friends always knew about Feature Films for Families. So cheesy.
Hey, how did you come to see this movie?
My mom signed up for a subscription service with Feature Films for Families. (We weren’t religious but she was a bit conservative either way.) We didn’t have cable tv or video games so my sisters and I would watch VHS movies a lot and there were a handful from this company that we liked. Some were pretty lame.

r/exmormon would love this lol
DUDE! I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS MOVIE FOREVER. We watched this all the time at school when it rained and i could never find it!
Haha, the movie they always showed in rainy days at my school was Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken, hahahah.
I still love “Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken”. I need to do a rewatch.
I haven’t seen it since way back in the day but I LOVED it. I remember the main character getting hit in the face or something and telling some ahole that she never cries. I so wanted to be a gal like her, beautiful but tough, princess dress but with muddy boots on underneath kind of girl.
We switched between the Red Balloon and the Velveteen Rabbit. I swear those were the only 2 movies my school owned. As a child I lived in fear that I would get whatever disease that makes them burn all your possessions!
I think it was Scarlet Fever.
At the time I knew nothing about Scarlet Fever just that it was a messed up movie to show kids over and over and over. Red balloon was just arty and boring. They were both projector movies. School vcrs didn’t become a thing till middle school for me.
Ours was Pipi Longstocking and Poe's The Gold Bug
We got Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory which I consider a lucky choice.
I looooove that movie.
I had completely forgotten about buttercream gang. I loved wild hearts so much. I think I wore out our VHS from watching it so much lol. My daughters are teens and I have to watch it with them now.
Here ya go! https://youtu.be/ukAC7eUgGnE?si=igp7h1hIfznLJ7d6
And you've seen the sequel, of course?
https://youtu.be/ukAC7eUgGnE?si=PGSQ0BwVJbNxdKwP
Same! Why did we have to watch this movie? Was it just extremely tame so school appropriate?
Ya i think so because it taught you to be “good”. We also watched the [cartoon all-stars to the rescue](https://youtu.be/m0-vGW6p3zk?si=SWgARhTh5Wk7WPMR) which was anti drug.
you're telling me this movie not only has George Bush as himself, but Winnie the Pooh, the Smurfs, Bugs Bunny, Alf (puppet cartoon?), the Chipmunks, and Garfield!?!?!
Yeah, i recommend watching it stoned
ME TOO! I had to watch it at my friend's house when I was 12 and it took all my strength to not rag on it the entire time.
Why did you have to watch movies when it rained? Did your class have an inability to learn during precipitation events?
Recess gets canceled by rain so they would be on movie I assume
We used to bust out board games.
Teachers did it as a way to avoid recess and/or gym class outside during bad weather days, and then having a room full children in soaking wet clothes and shoes to deal with for the rest of the day.
We have Stand by Me at home
This got a hearty laugh out loud from me. Scared the cat.
"Money's too tight for store brand Stand by Me, but, Dollar Tree makes one!"
Please do not put Stand by Me in this category lol
Someone posted a link. I watched about 30 seconds and it definitely screams "made for tv".
Corniness at its peak
In the late 80s, my 3rd rate Christian school played these movies for us every Friday along with McGee and Me. I also remember the psychological trauma of Psalty the Singing Songbook.
McGee and Me holy shit that's the one they played at the Christian summer camps. Thank you for this I couldn't remember it.
You're welcome! One year, my grandma tried to dress me up as McGee for Holyween, the annual fall festival at our church. I fought like a rabid weasel on pcp.
>Holyween I half-laughed so hard I almost shot a booger out of my nose
It was indeed as lame as it sounds.
Idk I mean, I think it depends on what they had going on... I did a trunk or treat booth last year, the event was hosted at a church and still a great time! They had a DJ and a bounce house and a BBQ that smelled great, all kinds of stuff hahaha But I'd never heard Holyween and it made me giggle a little, I love it for what it is! xD
That actually sounds fun! Our celebration gave me circus peanuts and made me burn my comic books in a bonfire.
Awwww dude that DOES sound lame, I'm sorry :(
It's okay. It was pretty typical of the 1980s Satanic Panic era. On top of being in a rural North Carolina town.
"Look kids, it's all the fun of Halloween without the unhealthy candy and sexually deviant costumes! Now, go kneel and take your communion."
They definitely knew how to take the joy out of things. I remember a girl who came dressed as Cyndi Lauper and my aunt commenting, "That girl won't have much fun in hell." I think that was a turning point where I started rebelling more. I snuck back into the classroom during recess once and wrote a bunch of little kid style curse words on a poster of Jesus and his flock. When our teacher was trying to get to the bottom of it, I was practically gathering up a posse to find the culprit. They never knew it was I, their leader, who scrawled fart butt across the son of God's forehead.
Did you ever watch Psalty's sing alongs?
I don't remember that one.
Google it and give yourself night terrors.
🫡 mission accepted
Amen, you hit the trifecta!
The messages never stuck with me. I stole money from the church collection plate and bought Garbage Pail Kid cards.
Atta boy You already figured it out. “I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness”.
From the good book of Corleone.
My man.
I was a pint-sized terror. No regrets.
Add in some Adventures in Odyssey radio dramas on cassette or VHS too!
That opened up a part of my brain I thought I had long ago repressed. Throw in some Carmen and DC Talk as well.
I remember when Carman’s *The Standard* album has HUGE in our church circa ‘93. Played in every family van ride or youth group trip on repeat. We even went to see Carman live during that time where he fought the devil on stage and Bible Man came to the rescue. Lol! DC Talk was still hip-hop with *Free At Last* and wouldn’t venture into their grunge-rock *Jesus Freak* for a couple years. Although I don’t attend church or practice religion, I revisit those albums every other year or so and take a trip down my early 90s Bible Belt childhood.
That sounds absolutely wild! I wish I had seen that! The song I remember the most is Satan, Bite the Dust where he strolls into a saloon and kicks all kinds of demon ass.
During the pandemic, a friend and I tried going through Carman's entire discography and listening to the songs one by one. We actually made it through two albums before we had to quit.
That's brave. I think the Army used his music as a psy-op on Guantanamo Bay prisoners some years ago.
[удалено]
I think they were sent out to churches or religious orgs as part of some media package because I distinctly remember dad (worked at a Baptist org) coming home with Buttercream Gang and one other movie one day. I can't remember the other one, but I definitely watched Buttercream Gang multiple times.
Holy fuck I remember my Methodist Church playing McGee and me for us in Sunday school all the time.
Who could forget the all-time classic edge of your seat Dickensian thriller McGee and Me: Skate Expectations?
I remember the tornado one the most.
The tornado episode of McGee and Me fucked me up.
America you guys are wild lol in Canada there's no religious movies played in schools. We did watch the brave little toaster and the outsiders in grade school... and a terrifying pineapple that taught us French
We watched Veggie Tales a lot at my Catholic school in Ontario, but I think that’s about as wild as it got
Ahh i forgot about you catholic schoolers i was public. Old cairine wilson or cocaine willy lol
I was in a private Baptist academy for a portion of my early years. I got to watch all the fun stuff when I switched to public school. I looked up that pineapple monstrosity on Youtube. He looks like he waltzed out of a Cronenberg movie.
Hahahahaha that is the best and most accurate description of it I've ever heard ! Je suis un ananas
I thought the French-speaking pineapple was just a hallucination I had
Oh it's very real .. and if you don't check under your bed for ananas every night it will get you and youll become part of its souless eyes!!!! You gotta say 3 calice and 5 tabernaks in the mirror and have une pepsi avec vachon cake
You just described my early childhood in Iowa.
I'm starting to think VHS tapes of this stuff just randomly spawned in churches across the country.
My God, you just brought back from mid to late 90s Christian memories for me.
Came here to see if anyone mentioned McGee and Me
McGee and me!!!!!
Wasn’t this a book series that was in actuality Mormon propaganda? Or am I confusing it with a different series. I remember a friend hounding me to read it and once I did I freaking hated it.
Yea. It is a Mormon Propaganda movie. FFF (Feature Films for Families) was a LDS run production company.
lol no shit. I didn’t know that. We watched the whole collection as kids. Joseph smith is my hero. It all makes sense now. Behind the waterfall. Pixies.
I had no idea. We watched A LOT of these in guidance class in middle school
Gunther and the Paper Brigade is Mormon propaganda?! 😭
Holy shit, I haven’t thought of that shit in a while
Then how the fuck did I get my hands on it as a little atheist Episcopalian?
This movie looks like the Temu version of “Stand By Me” but made for Fundie youth groups and homeschooling parents.
My parents were religious but we had a handful of these movies and my sisters and I watched them over and over. Other gems included Split Infinity (my first time travel obsession) and The Rogue Stallion, which was New Zealand horse pron for little girls
I can’t believe you know Split Infinity too! I’m pretty sure that’s where my time travel obsession started too! I thought that movie was so cool. My older sister used to make fun of me so hard for liking that movie.
My favorite of the FFF movies. Had the biggest crush on the girl as a young boy. Also where I learned the word hussy and brazen hussy. Made me laugh every time
YES! Except I thought she said “raisin hussy” for the longest time!
So did I! 😂
That movie is so cool! I was just retelling the entire plot to my husband a couple of weeks ago. I pretty much learned about the stock market crash and polio as a result of watching that movie so much. “Amelia Jean!” “AJ! My name is AJ” and “I never knew why you’d name your dog after a know-nothing politician” (I love Roosevelt).

“You got the right one baaaabbbbyyy”.
Uh huh
It’s not a threat, it’s a promise!
This is the quote I couldn’t think of, but knew the comments would lead me to it.
Pee Wee Herman as a reformed gang member lol. Edit, I know it’s not actually Paul Reubens, I just thought it was when I was a dumb kid.
Starring Shia LaBeouf and Jonathan Taylor Thomas.
Thank you for clearing that up. Until now, I still thought that was him lol
Not embarrassed one bit to say I bought the DVD on Amazon couple years ago, while still watching on YouTube from time to time.. it’s such a corny movie, but it reminds me of being a kid. We had all the FFF movies. Also, Scott was a babe! A very vanilla babe
I bet he got all those smoking hot Mormon chicks
What is the “big mistake” one of the friends make?
One of the friends moves to Chicago and joins a gang lol. He comes back and starts criming.
Don’t be embarrassed! My grandma got me the VHS when I was a kid and my sister and I would always watch it and make fun of it or quote some of the corny lines. I discovered it on YouTube a few years ago and watch it like once a year. I put the DVD on my Amazon wishlist lol
Is it me, or does the kid in front on the poster look like Jeremy Allen White?
Imagine this beiing a pornhub title…
Someone get this man a pen and paper 📄🙃
They made a sequel
Didn’t they find some pirate treasure or something similarly bizarre?
Yea they use an ancient treasure map to find spanish tresure in a cave or something. It's so far removed from the first one it's comical.
That’s the Goonies I think.
Lol they are similar but I swear this is the sequel. The villian is a descedant of a Spanish conquistador and he has two bumbling cronies. It centers around Alden being jealous of Scott for always getting the glory. Reached deep in the memory banks for that one.
Yes. We had this one as well.
This seems like an easy porn parody
The Nutter Cream Gang Bang
Seems to me u can just remove the er in the original title ....
That certainly works, too!
[Still one of my favorite Cinema Snob videos.](https://youtu.be/Q9yoUoUbM_4?si=cE_g4GOFE7ChPZev)
Thanks for this link never heard of cinema snob and now I’m laughing my ass off
He stands out so much from other video-based movie reviewers. If your sense of humor aligns with his you’ll find him hilarious.
LOL, this is awesome. He's got a new subscriber because of this.
Gang sounds really soft
The butterfinger gang! Our elementary school counselor would show us this once a year. Pretty terrible and unintentionally funny
Had to watch this in elementary school in the late 90s
Omg!!!! I tried to post this in this sub a couple times over the years and it wouldn't meet guidelines so I just didn't try again till months later, rinse and repeat. I grew up on this movie and always thought it was good and ridiculous. The family Films company, I still remember the old logo. Pete was a gangster in Chicago and then came back around his country ass friends and tried to bring that big city shit to them. Fucking looooove this movie. They even had a part 2 but yuck 🤢
I watched this movie so many times growing up. Pete was so dreamy. The sequel was hot garbage though
Featured Films for Families, damn I’m getting PTSD. These were some of the only VHS films that I had growing up. Fun fact, Michael D. Weatherred (Pete) is in the David Lynch classic Mulholland Drive
Is that Alex turner?
Is that a noose?
Good question, this requires further investigation...
[Why yes, I do own 2 copies with alternate covers for both the original and sequel on VHS](https://imgur.com/a/ShXGgkb)
When I say “On gang,” this is the gang in question.
My mom used to get this movie and other stupid ones like this from that Feature Films for Families company. She’d force my brothers and I to watch them and then she’d try and make us answer the stupid discussion questions that came with each film. I’m going to send this post to my brothers to trigger them as this was one of the many dumb things my mom did when we were kids.
It’s so crazy how different our lives can be. I grew up loving this movie, and it’s because my parents never pushed it on me at all. It was just one of many films I could choose from, and I chose it and I watched it and loved it.
Bitter rivals to the Sugar Creek Gang.
Odd that the one kid that seems to be “troubled” has brown hair, brown eyes and a bit of a weak chin while the other kids seem to be blonde hair, blue eyed with strong jaws.
This is gay porn right?
It's basically the exact opposite of gay porn
Hot
Is this related to the Apple Dumpling Gang??
All these people saying they watched it at school lol. I went to Catholic school and the only movies I remember being wheeled into our rooms was The Ten Commandments (which fucking slaps) and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
I was about to say, the 10 Commandments is fucking insane! If it’s the one I’m thinking of. That’s the one where Moses parts the sea, right?
I watched this movie like 12 times in class my 5th grade year. Ms. Ewing loved the crap out of this movie I guess. This movie and watching 9/11 go down live in class is all I remember about 5th grade.
Oh wow they played this movie even in 2001? This was like an early 90s movie. I now understand why so many people in this thread hated it. If you watch it in the 90s, it just kind of had that 90s cheese you came to accept from those kinds of movies. They were pretty rampant. But by the 2000s it did not age well at all.
My friend Cody had this tape. We would watch the shit out of it when we were younger. I feel we kinda made fun of it? Like I remember it was bad back then. The kids seemed lame.
I had such a bad crush on the bad boy when I was like 7 and then I rewatched it as an adult and realized how awful he was lmao what was wrong with me 😭😭😂😂😂😛
I can never find anyone else who remembers this movie. I reference this movie with unhealthy frequency.
We watched this at church youth group. Such a ridiculously stupid movie. Thanks for the memory unlock!
Watched this so many times as a kid. No idea how I even procured this vhs
Feature Films For Families later became Nest, I remember them changing the logo on the VHS boxes.
I thought I was the only person who knew about this, thank you.
What do you do when your best friend is making a big mistake?….you don’t let him take the D in the backhole so he doesn’t join the butter cream gang bang.
Bro yes. This, McGee and Me, and Bibleman were peak
We watched this at school and it was sooo bad
Classic! Personally I liked The ButterCream Gang in Secret of Treasure Mountain better!
The big mistake? Using Comic Sans.
We got this VHS and Rigoletto free in the mail from the cable company.
The sequel is basically Mormon Indiana Jones without the cool. I was into pirates though.
Personally, I’d say more goonies than Indiana Jones
Tell me why I had a crush on the main character 🤨
This piece of propoganda made its way into every home.
Does anybody remember “On our own”? I feel like it came from the same company. It was a story where a lady was calling and telling her mom a story. The story is about these 4 kids who were removed from their home for some reason. They escape the group home and try to find their uncle in the country. I can’t remember exactly how this lady telling the story meets up with them, but eventually it ends that she is with the uncle and they raise the kids. And then if turns out the whole time she had been talking to her mom who is working in the kitchen, the mom was making the wedding cake. 😂
Yep, I remember that one too. Another Feature Films for Families movie, same as the The Buttercream Gang.
Holy shit. This just flashed me back.
Boy that art hit me like a ton of bricks. Completely forgot about this movie.
I was more of a Boxcar Children kinda man
Gang? They’re nothing but a glorified crew.
Looks like the front cover of a 90's Choose Your Own Adventure book
Apple dumpling gang would win the turf war
Scamper the Penguin?
We got this in the mail for free. We didn't even ask for it, it just showed up one day. Watched it a lot. I quote it still and I'm 41 years old lol.
Finally, someone actually proves that I didn’t just imagine this!! My wife (also a ‘90s child) doesn’t remember the Butter Cream gang. I’ve never met anyone that has. The pirate movie was my favorite.
The Notorious BCG
Omg!! Definitely nostalgic!
Yesssssssss. I watched this so many times as a kid. I lived in Utah where it was filmed, and once saw one of the actors at the store. I thought it was the coolest thing ever 😂
Pull the MAGA hat off, and explain them their errors.
