Featured reviews
I showed this movie last October as part of a Family Movie Night and 72 people came to watch it. No one complained about any religious overtones and believe me they would have gone to my director if they did. I found this movie enjoyable for adults and children and one of the best buddies movie they have made. It was perfect for the season. As a matter a fact I will be showing it again this month as there were no other recent family Halloween movies to show my audience. This movie had my audience laughing and enjoying themselves. Don't read too much into a movie, just sit back and have fun like my viewers do. The Buddie movies are harmless, family fun and I always draw at least 30 people to this event. I wish there were more harmless movies made to show families. I was surprised to see that this movie had only a 4.6 rating on IMDb, it should at least be a 7.
This time, the adorable talking puppies are taken to a mysterious mansion where something spooky is happening. Disney's cutest puppies are back, join your favorite pals: the gluttonous Budderback, the stylish Rosebud, the laid-back Buddha, the rapper B. Dawg and the rowdy MudBud for lots of fun, action and mayhem in this exciting story about the strength of teamwork and the importance of following your dreams. When things get tough, our heroes must team up with their new friends.
Expectation: that this is the cutest of the entire franchise, after all I love a haunted house, despite being almost absolutely sure that it will be as silly, fluffy and boring as the others... Reality as silly, fluffy and annoying as the others ...

I watched this movie last night, and I'm still in shock. I can't understand how the producers of the movie weren't sued. Honestly, this was an extremely bad copy of Hocus Pocus. There's a scene with a dance, a male witch, talking animals, a legend, a book with spells, a man who behaves like a zombie. I could not believe what I was watching. Hocus Pocus is one of my favourite childhood films, and it felt a little bit insulting to see how shamelessly the producers of this film had stolen everything from it. It's just a pity because there are some known names on the cast list. However, I did not see what other viewers are complaining about, the Christian matter. There are a lot of films with witches, talking animals and spells, and kids don't get traumatized by it. It's scarier fanaticism and complaining about talking dogs than this movie.
Spooky Buddies, quite frankly, is a product of it's time. B Dawg has a...Very questionable accent and we're not even gonna talk about the Franken-dude costume guy. However, it's decently servicable as a children's movie if you don't have access to the Smurf's yet wish for an ounce of Gargamel's greatness.
The wizard guy (Neither me nor my Fiance bothered to remember his name, apologies) was certainly somewhat of a highlight, while he wasn't exactly that funny he had that sense of Gargamellioness that really pushed us through the movie.
Also, the dogs are objectively very cute. They're dogs. It's an easy bar to pass but seeing little animals in halloween costumes certainly healed a dark part of my soul.
Although this movie has led to me finding what is quite possibly the greatest achievement in television so I can't rate it any lower.
Not good. But it certainly is a movie. Although there are much better halloween children's movies.
