Nice effects though.

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

The whole concept of going to a Vampire Festival to get a break form monsters only to find monsters is classic Scooby Doo thinking.Need a vacation from all the scary monster stuff? Then go to a monster festival, makes total sense...and fits brilliantly into the philosophy of the Scooby gang....sometimes you wonder if they don't do things like this just to torture Shaggy and Scooby.It fits extremely well into the Scooby world, even down to the humor involved.And the parody of the vampire story fad, is, of course, the only reason this installment was made. It brings the movies back to the Rice/King parodies in Zombie Island and Witch's Ghost......and the twist is fun...unfortunately that's where it dies and continues just long enough to turn what was potential into yet another lackluster conclusion.It came VERY close to being one of the most solid Scooby Doo movies in the catalogue though. Certainly worth a purchase.

In my honest opinion, then the 2012 "Scooby-Doo! Music of the Vampire" animated movie wasn't the brightest of moments in the Scooby-Doo franchise. Why is that? Well, personally I didn't care much for the musical element that was introduced here. It was just forced and didn't really have a natural place in the cartoon that various characters would spontaneously break out into song in often odd moments.Without going too deep into the storyline, I will just briefly summarize it here. Scooby-Doo and the gang go to Little Bat village for a vacation after their last solved mystery, as Velma wants to visit the local Vampire Festival. Meeting up with Vincent Van Helsing, what was supposed to be a quiet vacation turns into another mystery as it turns out that some vampire imitators summon forth an ancient vampire by the name of Valdronya.It should be said that the storyline was good, and the storyline itself was actually quite up to level with other animated Scooby-Doo movies. But it was just a shame that it was cut short by the musical elements.The animation and drawing style in the cartoon was good, and it had that unique Scooby-Doo feeling that we all love. And being an animated movie, then the voice acting is alpha and omega, and I will say that the talents they had on for the voice acting was good, and they were doing great jobs with their respective characters. It is always a treat to have Matthew Lillard voicing Shaggy and Frank Welker voicing Scooby-Doo."Scooby-Doo! Music of the Vampire" certainly does have a place in the Scooby-Doo franchise, but it just wasn't one of the stronger pillars in the franchise.

This is so wrong. Anyone over five who says this is good is wrong. For serious fans of the Scoob (me from 1969 to present day) there are too many travesties afoot in this piece of trash cheaply made and shoved down the throats of innocent fans to enjoy it. I knew from the beginning , when no Guest Voice appeared in the credits, this would not be a good ride. Horrible. A Crime. A Scooby-Doo Musical? The gang breaking into a Zombie song? Poor animation. The first five minutes was a blatant rip-off from the first five minutes of Disney's Aladdin. They even had a "lamp"! The theme is a rip-off of "Twilight" with Daph as Bella. What did they do Tom Sheppard's original script that made him remove his name? He is the writer in the credits. This is the dude who wrote for Pinky and the Brain, so we know he did his job. So what did they do?I got a new title for a Scooby-Doo movie: What did the Studio heads do to Scooby-Doo?Pass it by!

As a big Scooby Doo fan, I enjoyed Scooby Doo and the Music of the Vampire. Of the Scooby animated movies, I do prefer Witch's Ghost, Zombie Island and Goblin King, and this is perhaps my least favourite of the movies to use the Mystery Incorporated-like animation style. However I still enjoyed it, I liked the animation style which was like a combination of the classic Scooby Doo and the What's New Scooby Doo style, and while it takes some time to get going the story was interesting with an ending that was a lot of fun if not entirely unexpected as I knew who it was halfway through.The dialogue is witty, and the voice work is absolutely great, with only a little too squealy Mindy Kohn disappointing(slightly). Frank Welker is terrific as always, Matthew Lillard had big shoes to fill and does admirably being very goofy and likable and Jeff Bennett is both menacing and makes us feel sympathy for him. Valdronya is a very convincing villain, with an imposing look and a Dracula/Maldor the Malevolent-like voice that gives the chills. Now to the stuff that I wasn't so crazy about, apart from Mindy Kohn and some of the story taking time to get going.I personally think the film could've been shorter, with a couple of scenes that could've been either shortened or cut I wouldn't have felt that the pacing was a little uneven with a couple of parts in the middle dragging. The songs I was mixed on; the best were Done With Monsters, which was clever and very spirited vocally, Scooby and Me, which was hilarious and Do You Want to Live Forever, especially for the dancing. The rest were forgettable, Valdronya Returns had a strong hint of deja vu almost as if it was trying too hard to be another villain song(can't quite put my finger on which) and I can't remember any of Vampire's Bite and Vampire's Dance, and didn't move forward the story much.Overall, a decent film and an interesting enough change of pace, but I have seen better from Scooby. 7/10 Bethany Cox
