Scooby-Doo [Region 2] Sometimes it takes a Scooby scramble to satisfy an entire family, and in the peace-to-all holiday spirit, that’s what’s on offer here. Winter WonderDog spans the Scooby generations. We scroll through a splattering of Scrappy, where the hotheaded little hound hooks up with Scoob and Shag for a few fits of mystery-free bad-guy nabbing, but the classic Mystery Machine players also pull up for several episodes. In “That’s Snow Ghost” they meddle at a spooky ski lodge where a mechanical abominable snowman look-alike’s on the loose, and “The Nutcracker Scoob’s” lineup links the entire groovy gang minus Velma for an investigation into the ghost of Christmas present, who’s spooking an orphanage. It’s the snowcapped, red-and-green Scooby-snack wrapped, all-era caper-scraper that’ll see Scooby fans of all stripes circling the tube. The sort of spirits it ushers in may not be standard issue, but the jinkies-generating snooping and sleuthing are. –Tammy La Gorce

Scooby-Doo and the Reluctant Werewolf Scooby scholars of the old-school set will find much in the Reluctant Werewolf to give them pause. For one thing, Scrappy and Googy, Shaggy’s girlfriend, are subbed for missing members of the Mystery Machine gang, and for another, instead of making like bananas and splitting from the monster at the center of a mystery, this crew slides, peel-style, into a strange circus of benign spooks, no meddling involved. The reluctant werewolf is Shaggy; he’s forced to finish first in a monster road race if he wants to rid himself of his fangs and facial fur (a dirty trick played on him by Dracula). A truckload of shenanigans, mostly screwball car tricks, ensue. Wacky wordplay works up a handful of howls here, but not enough to make this full-length feature worth tuning into twice or, ultimately, rescuing from the Scooby-Don’t pile. –Tammy La Gorce
Customer Review: Hilarious Halloween Comedy
I know a lot of people don’t like the departure from the regular Scooby Doo formula. But if we are willing to accept that this is different, but still great, it offers different types of hilarious Halloween comedy. The story starts normal and cheerful enough as Shaggy wins a race. The scene then changes to Dracula’s castle. Dracula is angry that the werewolf has retired right before the monster road race. When he is sadly ready to cancel the race, he realizes that he might be able to turn race car driver Shaggy into a new werewolf. So he sends the interesting Hunch Bunch to perform this task. (One of them slobbers and can only speak the most simple of words, while the other one sounds like he is an English Major and a Shakespearean Actor. Interesting paradox!) To make a long story short, the Hunch Bunch after some failed attempts, turn Shaggy into a werewolf and get him to the castle of Dracula. This is interesting comedy in that rather than the monsters just being scary, they have personalities, they bicker, they bumble, and they often trip over each other. After some less than friendly negotiating, Shaggy agrees to drive in the monster road race on the condition that Dracula will turn him back to normal if he wins. (Of course, that doesn’t mean Dracula won’t do some cheating to stop Shaggy from winning!) The race begins, and despite the Hunch Bunch’s attempts to stop Shaggy, Shaggy keeps his strong lead in the race well. At times, things get rather silly. (Like when Scrappy and Shaggy’s girl friend all of a sudden have a new engine waiting for Shaggy when he needs one.) But this is one case where the silly and rather campy aspects only serve to make things more hilarious. Another great comedy technique here is that while we probably see Dracula as the villain, he does offer us a lot of laughs. (”Wonderful. A million dollar pileup.” / “Oh, Dracy honey, you’ve never seen a million dollars.” / “So what? It looks like something I’ve never seen before.”) And sometimes we are permitted at least a tad of sympathy for Dracula when the Hunch Bunch keeps messing up. (”Our shower of tacks have taken Shaggy right out of the race! Ah…and unfortunately, everyone else too.” / “That Hunch Bunch would break my heart…if I had one.”) And Dracula’s girlfriend is great too. She may appear to be an airhead at times, but she is sweet in her own way, and she does provide some important knowledge at a crucial point towards the end. I think the best way to watch this is to understand that it is different, but it is still Scooby Doo, and it is hilarious from many angles.
Customer Review: Kids love it, parents will cringe
Ahh the pain of being a parent… you will truly feel it when you child finds this movie. Now I have sat through untold hours of Scooby Doo and can enjoy most of them even on the 800th viewing… now let me tell you the bad news: This movie is Terrible, but your kids are going to love it and want to watch it over and over again.

Scooby-Doo! And the Alien Invaders Scooby-Doo! And the Alien Invaders A lot has changed since the original ’70s-era gang of Scooby-Doo fans gave way to today’s followers of the hipster mystery cartoon series. For one, nowadays kids don’t have to wait around for the half-hour Saturday morning show- -they can pick up a copy of Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders. All the familiar elements are here; even the groovy green Mystery Machine makes a comeback, but it isn’t as reliable as it used to be. At the outset of Alien Invaders, it breaks down, leaving the crime-solving crew stranded in a creepy desert town overrun by aliens. From there, the plot unwinds faster than Scooby can down a box of his namesake snacks. A band of swollen-headed purple and green space guys–Zoinks–send the terrified teens scrambling for cover, but it’s not long before the quick-witted gang figures out that there’s a team of bad guys behind the bug-eyed masks. That’s not to say, though, that real-life aliens aren’t also roaming the streets, as Shag and Scoob (who hook up in an unprecedented Scooby-Doo romance with a peace sign-wearing babe and her equally hip dog) discover in the course of clearing out of the phony aliens’ hair-raising path. To longtime viewers, the love angle seems unsettling; it steals from the tightness of the mystery team. Still, with so much creepy fun to get caught up in, it’s a minor complaint. Scott Innes, the modern-day voice of both Shaggy and Scooby, nails both parts, and Jennifer Love Hewitt fans also will want to tune in–she sings the Scooby theme song. –Tammy La Gorce
Customer Review: My 5 year old son loves this one!
This is a really cute Scooby Doo. For months my son talked about Crystal from Scooby Doo (he had watched it at his babysitters). Finally we caught part of the movie on TV and I was able to the Title. I ordered it and suprised him with it. He loves it. It’s cute to watch Shaggy and Scooby going all lovey dovey over Crystal and her dog. I think most kids will enjoy it and as a long time Scooby watcher and fan I did too!
Customer Review: Fun for parents too.
My kids like the newer SD DVDs and particularly this one. My three-year-old was frieghtened by the alien abduction/examination of Scooby and Shaggy scene though. Adults have been exposed to this abduction “phenomenon” in so many movies, TV shows and in popular mythology that it seems comical. The funnyest part for me was when an old man named Lester who claims to have been abducted tells his story to the gang while in a diner. The scene is observed from within the diner and from without through a window. When Lester gets to the part of the story where he is “examined” by the aliens, the shot cuts to the outside view witch is without sound, and the Mystery Inc. kids recoil in horror and disgust. It’s a hoot. Thankfully the producers put this kind of thing in the movie. They realize that parents have to watch this stuff too.

Kids TV Favorites: Contains 1 Episode from Scooby-Doo Meets Batman Kids TV Favorites: Contains 1 Episode from Scooby-Doo Meets Batman Holy jinkies, Batman, just when it seemed superheroes couldn’t get any groovier, you collide with the Mystery Machine gang. Such a pairing might normally yield one wacky crime-fighting power struggle, but in these two capers egos take a back seat to classic you-check-this-out, we’ll-check-that Scooby-Doo splintering. First, bat-plagued pranksters Penguin and the Joker kidnap a hopelessly tongue-tied professor in a scheme to swindle a high-tech flying suit. Then the conniving criminals return as bit players in a counterfeiting ring run out of a way-wacky funhouse. Soar along in the Batmobile or make like a banana and split with Shaggy and Scoob at these crime scenes–either way, it’s a secret-passageway and scary-mask-packed combo even more compelling than the cookies-and-batmilk Scooby snack the pesky kids tuck into during a break in the action. –Tammy La Gorce
