Production & Preservation Note: Renowned as one of the most widely quoted entries in the franchise's history - Yum, Yum, Eat 'Em Up!, The Kid From Borneo filmed the chase scene when "Uncle George" in the downtown core of Culver City, with great views of the corner of Main Street and Culver Blvd, the alley next to the landmark Citizen Building and Media Park.

Dickie and Spanky's Uncle George works for a touring carnival. When the carnival comes to town, Uncle George sends a note to the family inviting them to come down to the carnival for a visit. Dickie and Spanky bring the rest of the Gang with them to visit "the wild man from Borneo" whom they mistake for their Uncle George. The wild man has a sweet tooth, spots Stymie eating some candy, and ends up chasing the Gang through the streets of downtown Culver City, California!

Excerpts from the chase scene are featured in this movie locations then and now Quick Preview Video. We see "Uncle George" chasing The Little Rascals on Culver Blvd at the corner of Main Street, down an alley next to the landmark Citizen Building at 9355 Culver Blvd and then through a Culver City residential neighborhood, still full of unbuilt vacant lots in 1933.
