Scooby-Doo! Legend Of The Phantosaur (2011) 7/10

Starring : Frank Welker, Mindy Cohn, Grey DeLisle, Matthew Lillard
Director : Ethan Spaulding
Running Time : 73mins

In the sixteenth of the direct to video Scooby-Doo series, Scooby-Doo (Welker) and the gang travel to a remote town so that Shaggy (Lillard) can recover from a terrible affliction caused by excessive inducement of fear, but they soon discover that the town is haunted by a prehistoric ghost that coincidentally starts attacking the town upon their arrival.

This was a pretty cute look at 43 years of being terrified can harm a man’s emotions. The idea that Shaggy is basically having a nervous breakdown is funny enough, but then when he is hypnotised into being braved whenever he hears a secret key word that no one else is sure of makes this one of the more character driven Scooby-Doo movies of recent years.
