YMMV / Scooby-Doo Meets the Boo Brothers

• Awesome Music: The synth-y 80s score, and, of course, the theme song.
• Base-Breaking Character: The Boo Brothers themselves. They're either funny or annoying in a movie where some feel they don't belong in, since they're among the only confirmed ghosts in the movie.
• Big-Lipped Alligator Moment:
  • The film starts with one; a ghost scares Scooby, Shaggy and Scrappy out of their home, and then sings about how, scary though she is, she's terrified of the Boo Brothers; all while shapeshifting into a trio of skeletons and then a witch. When the Boo Brothers actually appear, not only do they not exactly live up to that impressive hype, but the Brothers never bring up the aforementioned shapeshifting supernatural entity in order to back up their skills.
  • The Colonel's ghost suddenly having a steamroller in the tunnels as he chases the heroes.
• Ensemble Dark Horse: Sadie Mae Scroggins has some fans out there that totally adore her.
• First Installment Wins: Zigzagged, of the three 1980's animated Scooby Doo films, this is well-remembered and was the one with the highest critical praise (being one of the best reviewed Scooby Doo entries of any era on IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes), but the second, Ghoul School, has a more unique plot and is much better remembered today.
• Jerkass Woobie: Farquard the butler. He's fairly unpleasant to the Scooby gang, shows no concern for their well being, and seems just a bit unhinged. Still, if you served someone for more than 60 years and your reward was to continue your service, this time to someone you've never even met, you'd probably be hacked off a bit too.
• Memetic Mutation: Ever seen an image macro of a skeleton grabbing its head with an irate look on its face?◊ It comes from the bizarre intro sequence of this movie!
• Rescued from the Scrappy Heap: Scrappy-Doo is significantly more bearable here, since he's a lot less brash and needed to solve the riddles until Shaggy gets enough of a clear head to figure out the last few. And when the radio mentions the gorilla, his first thought isn't about fighting it, but mentioning that it must be scared.
• Retroactive Recognition: Shreako is voiced by Rob Paulsen, years before he'd go on to be one of the most prolific voice actors in the world.
