On
a visit to a New England town, Scooby and the gang are spooked
by close encounters with the ghost of Paul Revere and a fire-spouting
sea serpent. Rather than tackle this mystery alone, the gang
team up with The Harlem Globetrotters. Soon after they join
forces the Globetrotters and the Mystery Inc. crew are "ship-napped"
to a creepy island full of ghostly frights...
Scooby-Doo
Meets the Harlem Globetrotters consists of two mysteries
from the original 1972 New Scooby-Doo Movies
TV Series. Don't worry though "New" doesn't mean
you will have to suffer an appearance by Scrappy-Doo.
I
remember watching the episodes contained on this release when
I was knee high to a grasshopper. I didn't understand the
majority of the jokes then, and I'm wishing that I still didn't.
There are plenty of corny one-liners and awfully dubbed canned
laughter - made all the more painful by the fact that the
laughter is added in some strange places.
The
addition of the Harlem Globetrotters is a slight strange mix.
And each episode has the usual spooky goings on, followed
by some basketball antics. In their defence, the Harlem Globetrotters
do add a lot of comical action to the episodes, and they also
have their own cool bus which is similar to The Mystery
Machine.
While
the animation is more basic than I remember, and the picture
quality is a little on the ropey side - hairs and scratches
on the original film stock - these episodes will still entertain
children of all ages. Still average stuff though.
