Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School

I saw this TV movie a few times when I was a kid and, from what I remembered, it was a pretty good movie (where Scooby Doo, Shaggy and Scrappy Doo visits a haunted school and attempts to save its kidnapped students) that captures the some of the humor and spirit of the original cartoon series.

The animation was bright and the plot was actually somewhat intriguing, making you eager to know that the events unfold. Although Fred, Daphne and Velma were absent from the movie, Scooby, Shaggy and Scrappy did deliver some great fun and laugh-out-loud comedy. After the conventional theme of villains disguised as ghouls and goblins in the series, it was interesting and noteworthy to see this movie contain real ghostly creatures and real witches as villains, such as the villainess Witch Revolta.

There are corny moments here and there, but this is a cartoon and is still better than some of the more contemporary cartoon counterparts of the 2000s and beyond.

Grade B

"Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School" is an extremely entertaining and funny film for anyone who likes the humorous and funny "Scooby-Doo". This is a great and funny cartoon television flick. This is a great cartoon film that the family should enjoy. This is a great and funny film and I give it a 10 out of 10!!!!

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.

"Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School" would come of as one of the lame TV movies they make nowadays, but due to fantastic voice-acting, catchy characters, and an unorthodox(if not expectable) plot{volleyball game, WTF?] this becomes a movie for fans of the original SD series, Casey Casem fans, or for the newer 'What's new, Scooby Doo?' fans to see what it's elder counterparts were like. The drawbacks are continual graphic hiccups and outtakes they never edited out, Lack of sense in few places(Only five girls in a private school?, and lame villain(Mistress Revolta). Also, for a movie based on three people who absolutely fear monsters, they seem to take a liking to the girls in the film. Also, fan films on the website YouTube prove that the girls in the film and the film itself are cult classics.

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.
