Too Creepy
7 December 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Although I enjoy most Scooby Doo films, this one is not on the list. The characters have to take on new roles that don't work for them. The movie is also extremely confusing, such as when Scooby and Shaggy are driven to the graveyard. The caretaker ends up being a werewolf, but you would think they were still in the human world. Back in the real world, with Velma dramatically passing out, Fred and Daphne have to free the fairy, which isn't a very promising combination. The characters are VERY creepy and at times frightening. One particular scene was when Shaggy and Scooby encounter the three witches in the hut. They don't grab my attention, but seem too adult for the movie, which never works good with Scooby Doo. The movie also has TREMENDOUSLY dark moments, such as when the Great Krudski begins to harness his power. He belongs more in an actual horror movie than this. He is like a perverted best Friend's dad: Creepy, annoying, and scary. Although it is supposedly scary, the fantasy elements do not help the movie whatsoever. They just jumble up the plot and leave for a clunky bulk. The only positive review I have for the movie is the pumpkin. He gives me hope that this movie can revive itself. He has delightful energy and hilarious dial. Sadly, even he cannot bring the movie up from it's very deep hole.
