The Yowie Yahoo starts kidnapping musicians at a concert attended by Scooby and the gang in Vampire Rock, Australia.
A mid-tier entry in the Scooby-Doo direct-to-video line, this Australian-set adventure benefits from a fun, distinctive locale and a music-festival backdrop that gives it some personality among the DTV outings. The mystery plot follows the familiar formula closely with few surprises, and the animation is serviceable but unremarkable for the era. Voice performances from the regular cast are competent and comfortable. The vampire/Outback mashup adds mild novelty, but the resolution is predictable even by the gang's standards.
