Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
generationofswine The return of the Hex Girls. Scooby Doo Down Under. Sharpen your pencils Pilgrims we are going in the Wayback Machine, second star to the left and straight on to the '80s.This would have been three shades of awesome if it were released in the 80s instead of when I was, you know, 23.It has the Crocodile Dundee 1980s obsession with everything Aussie appeal. And it has the Hex Girls, the New Age Wicca Eco-friendly Goth band that was...yeah, OK, they were totally '90s, but still, rip the arms off their jean jackets and draw a couple stars on their faces and they could pass for an '80s girl band rather than the '90s Grrrrl band thing they had going for them.It wasn't as awesome as The Witch's Ghost or the Rice inspired Zombie Island, but it was still fun, if uninspired.The Scooby Gang picked up their Archies roots and ran with it.The only problem is that it seemed to go in too many directions at once.Scooby Doo meets Burning Man...in Australia...meets Lollapalooza...with vampires....yeah, a few too many directions at once.
Michael_Elliott Scooby-Doo and the Legend of the Vampire (2003) * 1/2 (out of 4) I was always a fan of the TV show so I thought I'd check out one of the movies since this is the only month that seems fitting. Scooby and the gang go to Australia for a rock concert but band members start turning into vampires. I was really, really disappointed in this thing because everything that made the TV show entertaining is missing here. I guess you could say this movie was dumbed down for kids but expanding this out of a 30-minute running time also hurts thing because often times the mystery is put on the back burner while we see stupid stuff ranging from concerts to other items. The actual mystery that is here seems watered down and gets boring after the first twenty minutes. I wasn't too impressed with the vocals either, which is strange since four of the original members were together again for this.
jason06-1 Scooby-Doo and the Legend of the Vampire is funPlot: After solving a mystery aboard a cruise ship while on a vacation to Austraila the gang, Fred (Frank Welker), Daphne (Heather North), Velma (Nicole Jaffe), Shaggy (Casey Kasem), and Scooby-Doo (Frank Welker) are looking forward to a relaxing vacation. They get word of a concert way out in the Outback and head on over. When they arrive they meet the concert's finalists, The Hex Girls and The Bad Omens. They also learn about the Yowie Yahoo, a vampire who is kidnapping the finalists and turning them into vampires. The gang thinks there is more to the mystery than meets the eye and agree to investigate. Their search propels them forward and learns that their is a connection between the Yowie Yahoo and a band that disappeared last year. After the Hex Girls are kidnapped the gang heads up to Vampire Rocks where the Yowie Yahoo lives to end the madness once and for all.The Good News: For once there are some great action sequences towards the end that lead logically from one event to another. The animation is suburb for a direct-to-video and the director knew what he was doing as the film looks like it actually could be transferred into theaters. The voice cast is better than before and the returning actors and actresses have matured well into their roles and the new voices are a welcome addition. The scriptwriter designed a clever and ingenious script and the film moves along at a fast pace, never slowing down. It is also never boring and is sure to leave you hooked till the end. The addition of vampires as the monsters is nice and the setting of the outback is used to it's full purpose. This is also very straight forward and that is another bonus and it never detours from what it is supposed to be. My favorite scene has to be where Fred, Daphne, and Velma going looking for clues in the managers trailer and not only does it have a laugh that gets me every time the whole scene is a reminder of the early episodes with searching for clues or being somewhere your not supposed to be. The running time is short so it doesn't take to much time.The Bad News: Several of the jokes where not funny and the revelation of the vampires is a throughly confusing one and takes many times before you finally get it.Conclusion: The bad jokes and the confusing ending should not let you stop from seeing this Scooby gem as it is truly one of the best. Rated: Not Rated
Codename-MovieBuff Not nearly as good as 'Zombie Island'. This movie was okay. It was kind of odd the way the characters had their old clothes, the theme music was similar to the original cartoon's music, and well, the story was kind of bad. I like 'Zombie' because it was original. I liked the way you see where the gang ended up after they split, not to mention a great storyline. Another thing that made that film great was the way they kind of spoofed the original cartoon (Fred's ascott consideration for his dinner clothes "nah"...excellent). This movie kind of throws the previous films of balance. But it's okay, not horrible, but just about watchable. Don't expect anything from the dvd (commentary by Fred, Scooby, and Shag) because it's not what you'd expect (would've been better for Zombie Island or The Witch's Ghost). Oh well. The movie is definetly the worst of all the latest Scooby Movies, all of which are excellent. But if you like Scooby, give the movie a chance. 5/10.
