The Scooby-Doo Project (1999) Online

The Scooby Doo Project was a Cartoon Network feature that was originally shown in pieces between shows and commercials. The work is a takeoff on the Blair Witch Project and featured brief clips of those meddling kids arriving in the woods to investigate strange events only to have things start to go wrong. The show was then supposed to be shown in its entirety. For some reason the network did not include all of the filmed sequences, especially interesting was the missing sequence in which Scrappy shows up and the gang is not happy, one character asking, `Who invited him?' A nice little parody well executed. I would love to get a copy of the entire group of sequences they made.

fun fun fun! i loved it. such a great spoof of the the blair witch

project! scooby and the whole gang really really really really funny!

i sat there all day laughing my head off! scooby doo can pull

anything off!

The Blair Witch project is my favorite horror movie of all time. I love it when the horror stems from the invisible and never fails to scare me to death. I also watched many Scooby Doo episodes back in the day and genuinely enjoyed most of these. So this could only work out nicely, right? Unfortunately not. I thought the outcome here was neither particularly scary nor funny and the combination of the cartoon characters and real life setting and people worked occasionally very fine, but sometimes also not at all.

The only really scary thing with this project is that notable voice actress (South Park, Hunchback etc.) Mary Kay Bergman committed suicide shortly after this was released. What a shame. Nonetheless, it has interesting aspects from both projects that it spoofs, it's just missing the final ingredient that could have made me enjoy it equally. If you're into either of the two, I'd recommend it, otherwise give these 10 minutes a pass.
