Judd Apatow is revisiting Camp Hope.

The Emmy winner, 54, took a trip down memory lane on Saturday by sharing several behind-the-scenes photos from his first movie, the 1995 Disney cult classic Heavyweights.

"Heavyweights 27th Anniversary was this week," he wrote in the caption. "It was my first film, co-written with Steve Brill, and it was a magical experience."

Apatow continued, "We shot at Camp Pinnacle in Hendersonville North Carolina in 1994. When it came out it didn't make any noise but oddly it seems like tons of people have seen it and enjoy it. It's on @disneyplus. This is a series of photos I took then called Angry Judd."

The filmmaker sported an era-appropriate mullet and made an angry face in the snapshots, which feature cast members Paul Feig (director of Bridesmaids, 2016's Ghostbusters and A Simple Favor), Aaron Schwartz (Gossip Girl), Shaun Weiss (Freaks and Geeks), and a young Kenan Thompson, before he became Saturday Night Live's longest running cast member.

Schwartz, 41, was among many who also celebrated the movie's anniversary in the comment section.

"I don't know what frightens me more. Judds angry face or that it's already been 27 YEARS," wrote Schwartz, who previously appeared in 1992's The Mighty Ducks with Weiss and Thompson, both 43.

"'I'm not going to camp with a bunch of fat loads…'" he captioned his own post, referencing his character Gerry's line. "But I did. 27 years ago. And it was the best damn summer of my life."

Heavyweights follows Gerry and a group of plus-size kids during a summer at Camp Hope, a weight loss camp where counselors turn the other cheek when campers smuggle in junk food.

But their summer takes an unexpected turn when fitness mogul Tony Perkis Jr. (Ben Stiller) buys the camp with the intention of whipping the boys into shape, no matter the cost.

Although the family comedy underperformed at the box office, Heavyweights has lived on over the years as a rare Disney cult classic.
