Mill Creek Entertainment has a six-film, double-disc DVD promotion heading home on Feb. 16 featuring young actors who got their start in the movies in the 1990s. Titled 90s Kid Star Collection, the collection showcases the budding talents of Macaulay Culkin, Anna Chlumsky, Elijah Wood, Devon Sawa, Kellie Martin and Jenny Lewis.
So, what’s included? We start off with director Howard Zieff’s 1991 family-themed blockbuster, My Girl, starring Anna Chlumsky (future six-time Emmy nominee for her role as Amy Brookheimer in the Veep television series) and Macaulay Culkin (who had just rocketed to stardom as Kevin in Home Alone).
The movie proved to be so successful that in 1994 filmmaker Howard Zieff and Anna Chlumsky (along with parents Dan Aykroyd and Jamie Lee Curtis) reunited for My Girl 2, which is also included in this six-film collection from Mill Creek Entertainment.
Next is director William Dear’s 1997 film release of Wild America, co-starring Devon Sawa (fresh from Little Giants … and later films like Final Destination, Idle Hands and Slackers) and Jonathan Taylor Thomas (best known as Randy on the Home Improvement sitcom).
Future “Frodo” in The Lord of the Rings series, Elijah Wood, gets the focus in both the 1992 film from director Richard Donner, Radio Flyer, as well as starring as the title character in director Rob Reiner’s 1994 film adaptation of Alan Zweibel’s novel, North.
Lastly, the 90s Kid Star Collection on DVD from Mill Creek Entertainment on Feb. 16 features director Jeff Kanew’s 1989 comedy, Troop Beverly Hills, showcasing the talents of Kellie Martin (as Lucy Knight on ER and more), Jenny Lewis and more.
