Scooby-Doo! Frankencreepy

Scooby and the gang come across the legend of the Frankenstein Monster, this movie has a nice story interconnected with Velma's ancestors, she being a descendant of them but as the story progresses the gang find it very hard to outsmart this mystery because it was mainly an undercover scheme by some of the famous classical Scooby villians half a century ago, now coming back to take out the gang based on redemption, vengeance and revenge. Like Shaggy said in the end: you got so greedy for revenge that you forgot to be greedy for money as they also had a plan to usurp the money of the estate where they had invited the gang . A very nice movie.

This was the strangest Scooby movie I have ever seen. I don't understand why every time I watch it, it freaks me out. The whole vibe is off and the characters are there but the story feel unreal. The quick shots that they took throughout the movie got to be really annoying when it kept happening. The characters were weird and the movie just didn't feel complete. The message was great in this movie and it was something I liked. I found myself laughing a lot at the jokes. I have to say that the best character of the whole film was Fred. He really became not just the leader but the thinker of the group too. The twist at the end was fantastic and added a nice touch. Overall, this movie was just strange.

Watched another SCOOBY-DOO direct-to-video movie this one is 23rd in franchise (out of total 32movies) and released in 2014, named SCOOBY-DOO FRANKENCREEPY, and my 5th movie. I love scooby-doo animated series, alongwith many others like Courage, Dexter, Shaun the Sheep and Disney. This movie is a good one, as sticking to franchise's central theme, Scooby Doo and team were asked to go to Velma's ancestral house in Transylvania Pennsylvania since Velma's uncle died and left her a big property but villagers didn't liked them due to her uncle's monstrous activity (he built a monster) and now they say that the uncle's ghost is hunting the town. The mystery is well arranged and a better mystery than other movies I watched, also I found a different treatment to this movie, fast-cut-put together edited scenes like watching a fast go-through the happenings or flashbacks. I rate 4/5.

I've always been a fan of Scooby-Doo. I know a lot of people prefer when the series goes dark, meta or more mature (like Zombie Island or Mystery Inc), but I always preferred the more light-hearted adventures in colorful locations, and this film hits those hit all the high points for me.

First of all, the editing and humor in this film hit me by surprise. A ton of blink-and-you'll miss it moments, and some of the gags had me in stitches. I love how the film kept building on the gags and jokes without making them stale (something future films picked up on, but didn't do as much as this one). The film also had a ton of lightning fast edit scenes which I enjoyed but felt they were a bit out of place. Overall, the film is a lot more gag-based than some Scooby-Doo films but still manages to have a fairly foreboding atmosphere. The animation was also really cool. It felt a bit cheap in places, using fairly low-quality CGI for backgrounds, but it set the moon and looked really good all-throughout. A ton better than the lackluster looking 2000s films. I didn't like the animation as good as the anime-styled 90s films, but it's different and still really nice. What also took me by surprise was the sheer villainy of the bad guys. Scooby-Doo villains have rarely ever been as bloodthirsty as these guys, who attempted to straight up murder Mystery Inc in various ways. It was kind of cool in a twisted way. The villains didn't just feel like a mystery for the gang to solve, but legitimate threats that the gang needed to put to justice. Overall, the gang felt a lot more heroic in this film, since they weren't just solving a mystery but liberating a small town from a bunch of maniacs who took over. The characterization of the characters were also a real treat. The film carried the fairly new tradition of making Fred into more of a technically-minded dork (like Velma but more engineering than science) with a very animated personality. This has its strengths and weaknesses of course. On one hand, it makes Freddy a lot more interesting of a character with his own inner-personal demons to overthrow in his character arc, but it also takes away some of the credibility he had as a leader. Daphne instead becomes more of the straight-man type figure this time around. Though still vain and fashion-centric, she's much more down-to-earth than anyone else in Mystery Inc. Everyone else is more-or-less how you'd expect, which is always a treat. To sum things up, this film was an utter treat. I loved the beginning, middle and end of it. It might even be my favorite Scooby-Doo movie yet.

On one hand it was boring....

But on the other hand, Transylvania, Pennsylvania is sort of a classic Scooby location, at least in spirit, so there is that attempt to appeal to the old Scooby Fans.

And the towns people were a great source of humor, especially their exchanges with Velma's family, so again, there is that working out for it.

And the plot twisted enough to seem like a Classic Scooby cartoon.

the downside is, few of the jokes really stuck and the songs were so-so. The humor just wasn't there to save it and with Scooby, the movies can't be sold on plot alone, people are fans because they are kid-scary and funny at the same time.

Frankencreepy just wasn't really funny.
