Scooby-Doo Meets the Boo Brothers Scooby-Doo Meets the Boo Brothers When Shaggy inherits an old Southern estate from an uncle, he and his sleuthing hounds take a road trip. But they don’t even make it to the mansion before the haunting starts. Amid headless horsemen, walking skeletons, and a menacing butler, Scooby, Scrappy, and Shaggy get majorly spooked. The three Stooge-like ghosts they hire to help them know more about slapstick than ghostbusting and, to make matters worse, neighbor Sadie Mae has the hots for Shaggy while her gun-toting brother Billy Bob is hot to eliminate him. The local sheriff is no help–although an escaped gorilla is–and the jewels that Scrappy uncovers keep disappearing. This new 91-minute movie fuses together episodes from 1983 of the long-running cartoon, which features Casey “Mr. Countdown” Kasem doing the honors as Shaggy. It’s classic Scooby-Doo: bumbling good versus slightly-less-bumbling evil with a lot of laughs for viewers 3 and up. –Kimberly Heinrichs
Customer Review: Great Movie
This Scooby Doo movie - along with Scooby Doo and the Harlem Globetrotters is my daughter’s favorite movie. Nuff said
Customer Review: A childhood favorite of mine, still plenty of typical Scooby Doo fun.
The premise is that Shaggy inherents a spooky, decaying mansion from his Uncle Beaureguard, and the movie begins as he, Scrappy-Doo, and Scooby-Doo are en route to the mansion. The whole estate is pretty spooky and decayed looking, replete with swamps and forests surrounding the house, a perfect setting for mystery and mayhem. At the mansion they are greeted by a sinister butler with a humorously overdone but still jarring laugh in Farquard.

Scooby-Doo and the Goblin King Scooby-Doo and the Goblin King The best, original Scooby-Doo animated movie seen for some years, Scooby-Doo and the Goblin King is genuinely imaginative, fun, and full of surprises–particularly in its vocal casting. Besides the usual group–Casey Kasem still going strong as the voice of Shaggy (since 1969), Frank Welker as both Scooby-Doo and Mystery Inc.’s leader, Fred, Mindy Cohn as Velma and Grey DeLisle as Daphne–Goblin King features Wallace Shawn, Lauren Bacall, Tim Curry and Wayne Knight in substantial roles. The lively story finds the Mystery Inc. gang enjoying a Halloween night at a carnival, where a hack magician (Knight) steals the power of a fairy on unauthorized leave from the spirit world. Faced with a threat to Fred, Velma, and Daphne, Shaggy and Scooby enter that parallel dimension overrun by elves, headless horsemen, witches, a talking pumpkin, etc. Their mission is to get to the Goblin King (Curry), who can stop the magician s feverish quest for more and more power. The story is endlessly colorful and sharp, more of a fable than the average Scooby-Doo cartoon as Shaggy and Scooby, unlikely heroes, wander through a wonderland of ghouls for an answer. –Tom Keogh
Customer Review: scooby doo and the goblin king
this is definately the perfect adventure for halloween or just if you love scooby doo. you will enjoy this one immensely!!!
Customer Review: Good
In my opinion, Scooby Doo mysteries are just not as good as they used to be. ( Still better than the horrible Scrappy Doo period though!) As an adult, it is fun trying to recognize who is doing the voice overs though. Jay Leno seemed to have a really good time playing the Jack o latern, and I always enjoy Tim Curry’s voice. BUT, my kids really have enjoyed this DVD. It has gotten them all prepped and excited about Halloween. I feel like their attention to this movie will ebb over time though. They enjoy watching the old school mysteries better than most of the movies. With the exception of Zombie Island, which they have worn out!
