    Cute, funny, charming

    I've heard people dissing this movie, but I don't agree. I loved this movie as a child, and even now (I'm 19) I still enjoy it. Sure, the whole gang isn't there, but that's fine. I was never a hardcore fan of the series, but this movie is fabulous. The "little ghouls" are adorable and lots of fun. Matches, the "pet" dragon of the boarding school, is really great, and the friendship he develops with Scrappy is nice to see. The beginning to the movie is actually really funny, and the exercise scene (don't ask, you'll just have to see it yourself!) that follows soon after always puts a smile on my face. It all starts as a misunderstanding that results in Shaggy and Scooby meeting monsters they (gasp!) aren't afraid of... and, of course, some new villains that *are* quite scary. All in all, this is a really entertaining watch. I love it, and gave it an 8 out of 10.

    A must-see for true fans!

    It was a joy to see Scooby, Shaggy, and Scrappy true to character. Shaggy's clothes--and the Mystery Machine--appear as they premiered in "The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo" (1985-1986), providing continuity. Glenn Leopold weaves a multi-character story with traditional Hanna-Barbera charm. I think it would have made more sense to include Daphne, but it still lives up to Scooby-Doo cannon established from 1969 to the late 1980s. A must-see for true fans!

    good points

    What made me laugh more and more is that little pis$ed off dragon. It made the movie as far as I'm concerned. The movie took a while to get going, but it grew on me......but I'm easily entertained. In the realm of kids movies, I'd probably give it a 6/10. Definitely enjoyable.

    Interesting

    I disagree with Op_Prime. I saw this movie and I thought it was really good. I liked all those ghoul characters, and I thought it was an interesting plot with that witch Revolta trying to take over the ghoul school. So maybe it doesn't beat "Zombie Island" or "The Witches Ghost," still I enjoyed this movie.

    • Quotes

      Scrappy Doo: So with the cadets it was a snap to escape Revolta's trap, now let's get loose and dance and clap while I lay on my Scrappy rap. Over there is Daddy Drac who's glad to have his daughter back, and all the guys from Calloway are here to dance the night away. And there's Miss G with Colonel C, grooving to my melody.

      Ms. Grimwood: Your boys were very gallant to go after my girls.

      Scrappy Doo: And Grunt's with Elsa Frankenteen who wants to be a slam dance queen, and Phanty really does her thing, a dance for two, the Phanty fling.
