Summary: Scooby Doo and the Reluctant Werewolf
Review: A great classic Scooby doo movie than fans of old Hanna-Barbara storyline will enjoy. The only reason I give it 4 stars out of 5 is the one problem I always had with story concept. Dracula needs a werewolf but a midget werewolf is seen among Dracula's crew of monsters throughout the entire film. From kid to adult that always bugged me a bit. It a wonderful story where Shaggy wears his alternate red shirt and Googie his girlfriend is a great new character to the Scooby Universe. In them movie shaggy is turned into a werewolf and in Wacky Racers style have to win a crazy race to get changed back.

Summary: Scooby and Shaggy take a break.
Review: I saw this like a hundred times when I was a kid and I did not think I would laugh at it as much as I did then. Especially considering this is old school Scooby animation and not the sleeker, brighter animation of recent years. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this. It's even better than Scooby's most recent adventure (The Monster of Mexico).

There is no Mystery Inc or Mystery Machine in this movie. It's just Shaggy (wearing a red shirt instead of a green one) and Scooby (and unfortunately, Scrappy, tho he doesn't feature prominently) and Shag's girlfriend Googy. Shaggy lives in an alarmingly large, mansion-esque house and is chosen by Count Dracula to become a werewolf so he can take part in a race for monsters.

Despite looking cute and cuddly as a Werewolf, Shaggy obviously doesn't want to do it but Dracula promises to change him back to human if he wins. What follows is a Scooby Doo version of the Wacky Races as insane customized cars battle it out on an anything-goes Transylvanian race-course.

The majority of laughs come from Dracula, ever so desperate to keep his wicked plan from falling apart and always making a complete idiot of himself.

It's also new to see Shaggy not jump into Scooby's arms every time he sees a monster. And this time they're real too , not just some guy in a mask.

I would definitely recommend this to Scooby fans and those who are just total Scooby completists (like me). It's very funny and totally rewatchable.

The DVD is in 1.33:1, as drawn and comes with a Dolby Mono soundtrack.

Summary: GREAT VIDEO
Review: THis is arguably the bestScooby doo movie of all time!
I know somepeople don't like scrappy, which I don't understand. I like Scrappy. I think he makes these videos much better, he's a great, funny character if you ask me. Also in this movie, there is no mystery machine, Freddy, Velma, or Daphane. this may disapoint some people, but it doesn't bother me. I find Daphane annoying, same with Fred, and velma doesn't belong in this movie.
Oh, and about the mystery machine, sorry we're not in the 70's anymore. Shaggy has a car in this movie that is a million times cooler than the mystery machine. When you see the movie you'll find out. Fred, Daphane and Velma just don't belong in this movie. They're not neccesarry charactors anyway, beacause they solve mysteries and this movie isn;t a mystery!
In this movie Shaggy, Scooby and Srappy run into trouble when Shaggy is turned into a werewolf by the hunch bunch, who are count dracula'a assistants. In order to be changed back to normal, shaggy must enter and win the annual monster road rally in transylvania, but dracula isn't gonna make it easy! This movie is very comical and funny. It's much better than much of the garbage that's on TV today. I give this movie 2 thumbs up! buy this movie, and you won't regret it!!!!!!!!!

Summary: SCOOBY-DOO AND THE RELUCTANT WEREWOLF
Review: When this movie came out on DVD, I was tempted to buy it because I had vague recollections of liking it as a child. I was concerned, however, that it would turn out to be one of those things that doesn't quite transcend adulthood. Fortunately I had the opportunity to see it on TV recently and am now convinced that it is indeed worth buying. Not being a particular fan of classic Scooby, I had no problem with the scrapping of the traditional characters and plot conventions, although I'm sure this would disappoint many. The strength of this movie, to me, is it's complete absurdity. Shaggy is turned into a werewolf and, in order to regain his somewhat human form, must win a car race against several classic monsters. For reasons that were unclear to me, Dracula (who also announces the race with the aid of his ditzy girlfriend) is hellbent on preventing Shaggy and Scooby from winning. But not to worry, they have help--in the form of Scrappy and Shaggy's girlfriend Googy (how's that for a stoner name). Now we will all agree that Scrappy is really [not good], but fortunately he's not in this movie enough to get extremely annoying. Dracula's got pals, too: The Hunch Bunch, Crunch and Brunch. While the monsters and their cars and hijinks are entertaining, The Hunch Bunch is my favorite part of the movie. The bemonacled Brunch, who sounds curiously like Cary Elwes, seems intelligent, but he's just as stupid as the incoherent Crunch and thus ridiculous escapades ensue. Ultimately, and not surprisingly, a happy ending is attained and Shaggy, Googy, Scooby, and Scrappy return to domestic bliss. In short, this movie is [not good] and bad, but totally, totally fun.
