May Actually Be Scooby's Best Movie!Apr 12, 2003
Anyone who knows me, knows that I love King Diamond's records. I loved "Abigail," "Them," "Conspiracy," and "In the Shadows." I thought "Time" was alright, and I felt "Into the Unknown" had its moments. Not knowing what to expect, I bought his "Dead Again," and was shocked at the awesome return to form. I always liked the Scooby series. And I really liked "Scooby Doo on Zombie Island." I thought "The Witch's Ghost" was pretty good. But I was a little disappointed with "The Alien Invaders" and "The Cyber Chase." I thought the live movie was flat out terrible. Not knowing what to expect, I bought this tape.RED LIGHT ALERT! Ah...this may actually be Scooby's best movie! First, it was a charming bonus to get the original voice cast back! 2nd, we are presented with an awesome return to the Scooby Doo formula. In a normal situation, we are presented with the possibility of the supernatural. We also see the gang in Australia. We also get to see how their seeming vacation turns into yet another mystery! The original cast seems to have all their wonderful chemistry back. Fred's calm attitude; Daphne's kind, but unaware character; Velmah's sassy charm; and Shaggy and Scooby's constant fear and appetite. We also get to see the Hex girls again. The misleads are well placed; secondary characters like Jasper give us some comical moments; and we are given time and clues to figure out the mystery before it is revealed. I don't want to chance ruining it for you, but I will say, EVEN if like me you were disappointed by the recent movies 'Alien Invaders,' 'Cyber Chase,' and the terrible live movie, DO NOt, REPEAT DO NOT overlook this gem. It may actually be Scooby Doo's best movie!

 SCOOBY ROCKS!Mar 06, 2003
By Matthew DeLuca
Scooby fans, you will love this brand new Scooby Doo movie!
America's favorite cartoon character and the rest of the Mystery Inc gang, go down under, to Australia, where they encounter their scariest mystery yet.....The Legend of the Vampire!
Scooby and pals investigate the mysterious disappearances at a Rock festival. But to do that, Scooby and the gang must first go undercover....as rock stars!
So the Mystery Inc kids join Scooby and they don the rock star clothes and actually perform a song live on stage, with Scooby Doo on the drums! Wait till you see Velma perform on lead vocals! You will see a side of her that you have never seen before!
This movie is special for a few reasons.
First, we get to see the classic Mystery Machine Van again! In the other recent Scooby movies, the gang has used an SUV, but they are back to the classic Mystery van that we all know and love.
Secondly, this movie uses the same music that was used in the classic Scooby Doo cartoons of the 60's and 70's, thus creating the feel that you are watching the classic Scooby shows!
Thirdly, this is pure Scooby Doo...the same Scooby that we know and love. The same fearful, hungry, and humorous canine crimefighter that we have grown so used to.
You simply cant go wrong with Scooby Doo shows, and this is one that you and your family will cherish and enjoy for years to come.
The DVD has some cool extra's!
First, there is a special commentary feature, that allows you to listen to Scooby, Shaggy, and Fred, as they watch the movie with you, and talk about the movie!
Scooby and Shaggy make fun of Fred, and how he doesnt have the "look" of a rock star.
So its like getting TWO versions of the movie....the regular one, AND one with Scooby, Shaggy and Fred talking in the background as they watch the movie with you, which is very entertaining in of itself.
There is also a blooper segment, but to see the bloopers, you first play the Monster Maker game. You can use the three different images of monsters and mix them to make a funny looking monster of your own! And after you do, you will see the bloopers!
The DVD also features Scooby and Shaggy as DJ's, and they show a few musical Scooby videos, featuring recent and classic Scooby Doo footage!
It is very well done.
Also, you can see a sneak preview of the NEXT brand new Scooby Doo animated movie, which will come out this October (October 2003).
If you love Scooby Doo, you will love this DVD. And if for some reason you werent a Scooby Fan before.........one viewing of this DVD will change that.
See what all of the Scooby Doo fans know.......... That Scooby Doo rocks!!! He is an American classic, and this DVD celebrates America's love for Scooby!

Scooby-Doo And The Legend Of The VampireMar 28, 2003
Ths Is One of The Bset Scooby Doo Movies I Have ever seen! It starts out when the gang (Daphnie, Fred, Velma, Shaggy And scooby doo) take on Australia for a vacation. But when they find out that the bands are being taken over by the Yowie Yahoo, its another mystery to solve. As always, Shaggy and Scooby are by themselves again when Fred takes Velma and Daphnie when they split up. It is a fun movie to watch, expecially when you get the DVD version of the movie. You enter the special features menu. Click Monster menu and then you can explore the vampire rock that was featured in the movie. It has a menu where you can make your own monster faces by chaging around the body parts. The music is great in this movie! And I think that it is one for the hole family to enjoy. So I would buy the DVD edition so you can enter the cave and have fun!

 Good, but a few problems...Mar 28, 2004
By Daniel
I liked this movie, but it had problems. Scooby and the gang go on an all-new retro animation adventure in Australia, but they are about to face the huge Vampire of Vampire Rock (codername: Yowie-Yahoo). I think the idea of facing a huge vampire is... pretty decent and good, but not as good as the gang facing the Phantom Virus in Scooby Doo and the Cyber Chase. Daphne's original voice actor returns, but, IMO, in some of the scenes, were a bit too off. Casey's return was done really well! The Hex Girls return in this movie, and we have new characters. If you're a die-hard Scooby fan, you can get this movie, but you may be disappointed. I still thought it was good.

New Scoobie not at home.Apr 09, 2003
By K. Ostrowski
"bra1n1ac"
Just recently, a flood of Scooby films have been released, and the latest one was "The Legend of the Vampire." I didn't know how good it would be, since the last two animated scooby-films had been rather a disappointment, but when I heard the original cast was doing the voices, I couldn't stand the wait, so I saw...
Scooby-Doo and the Legend of the Vampire
Here's how it ranked...
Sound: 4/5
Well, unlike the previous films, this film used much of the same music from the original series, as well as a couple songs from previous movies. I think that wasn't what hurt the grade most, but the original songs and such were not all that great either. The ones used in the new scooby series were better, I think.
Graphics: 3/5
I was sorely disappointed with the graphics in this film. We all love the original series, but let's face facts. By today's standards, the graphics were awful, and the biggest difference between those graphics and the ones used in this movie was that the graphics in the movie may have been just a LITTLE more fluid. Overall, though, I thought the graphics in previous scooby movies were better, and the special effects, or what have you were far less dazzling than in the first four animated movies. Is it wrong to want to see something truly stunning? Overall, for a movie, the graphics were mediocre.
Story Concept: 2.5/5
EEK! Scooby and his friends tour australia, where they learn that a rock concert is being haunted by a vampire, who's kidnapping the bands. As you can tell, this is probably the worst concept they've done, if only because of it's sheer cheesyness and cynicism towards the supernatural.
Story Presentation: 3.5/5
NNNN... I was debating giving it a four, but no. Aside from a few scenes of Daphne and Velma hanging out, this was basically just an extended and more fluidly-animated episode of the series. I expected better. To be fair, it was very funny, and shaggy and scooby had some priceless lines, but the real stars of the show; Velma, Freddy and Daphne, didn't show much emotion or individuality like in previous flicks, and the fact that there was no real supernatural phenomenon (yes, I'm giving that away, because if I'd known that, I would have rented the film rather than buying it) just made things even worse. As with Alien Invaders, this film still had the classic scooby charm, but it let go of so much, becoming the second scooby film to not live up to it's name. In fact, far from not having vampires, they didn't even DESCRIBE them accurately, or even mention such words as BATS or BLOOD. I was sorely disappointed in that.
Acting: 5/5
Perfect grade here, because who plays Velma, Shaggy, Daphne and Freddy like their original voice actors? Yes, the original voices of the gang returned for this film, and that basically carries this grade.
All in All: 3.6/5
In regards to comparing it to other scooby films, I think I enjoyed it more than alien invaders, but less than the others, because frankly, this movie was funnier than alien invaders. However, Alien invaders also had some cool effects and eye candy to appease, so that's good too. Still, I was disappointed by the loss of anything remotely resembling the thrills I used to get watching Witch's Ghost and Zombie Island (the first scooby films, and still the best.) This film had the characters we love, but for me, it wasn't sufficient to really please. I'm going back and watching "Witch's Ghost" again tomorrow to remember what I love about scooby, but you might not be as disappointed with this film as I was. Rest assured, if you want to see a climactic thrill ride of kids fighting evil and solving mysteries, skip this film entirely, and watch Witch's Ghost again. However, if you want to see a lengthy episode of the original series, by all means, watch this film. In my opinion, good enough for the series, but not for a movie.
