telefilm produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions, distributed by Great American Broadcasting, and starring characters from their Saturday morning cartoon series "Scooby-Doo ". The film stars the voices ofCasey Kasem ,Don Messick ,Sorrell Booke , andRob Paulsen , and was written byJim Ryan and directed by Paul Sommer andCarl Urbano .The first full-length film to feature the "Scooby-Doo" characters, it was released as part of the "
Hanna-Barbera Superstars 10 " series of telefilms, which included two other Scooby-Doo films, "Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School " and "Scooby-Doo and the Reluctant Werewolf ". All three "Scooby" entries in the "Superstars 10" series feature Shaggy, Scooby-Doo, andScrappy-Doo alone involved with stories that feature real ghosts and monsters, similar to the early 1980s version of "Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo".Plot
"Scooby-Doo Meets the Boo Brothers" centers around Shaggy's inheritance of a southern mansion from his recently departed Uncle Beaureguard. No sooner do he, Scooby-Doo, and Scrappy-Doo arrive at the plantation do they find it is haunted by the ghost of a Confederate soldier.
Scrappy suggests they call ghost exterminators, and the trio end up appointing the
Boo Brothers Freako, Meako, Shreak (three ghosts whose mannerisms closely resemble those of TheThree Stooges ) When Shaggy asks them how can they be ghost exterminators when they themselves are ghosts, one of the brothers replies "It takes one to catch one, you know!". However, the Boo Brothers prove to be inept ghost catchers, and often find themselves in the way of Shaggy and the dogs.While trying to eliminate the ghosts from his new residence, Shaggy discovers that his uncle has hidden a fortune in diamonds in various places throughout the plantation, with a clue at each location for how to find the next. Thus, he, Scooby, and Scrappy begin a quest to find the hidden treasure, while attempting to avoid and/or rid themselves of the Confederate ghost, who is also after the diamonds.
Other obstacles Shaggy, Scooby, and Scrappy encounter include Sheriff Rufus Buzby, who was impersonated by his twin brother at the beginning (the real sheriff has a mustache, whereas the sheriff Shaggy meets does not. This was only revealed when Shaggy telephones the real sheriff and unmasks the first one as the monster, who the real sheriff revealed to be 'my no goody brother', T.J. Buzby), and also who is on the trail of an escaped
gorilla , and Sadie Mae Scroggins, who has a crush on Shaggy, much to her gun-toting brother Billy Bob's disapproval.Clues
