Scooby-Doo! and the Legend of the Vampire (2003)

[bunniefuu]

Just a little to the left.

A little more. Perfect.

Daniel...

...this concert's not a good idea.

Relax, Grandfather.

Everything will be fine.

Come on, we're ready for Matt Marvelous'

sound check. You'll love him.

Well, I don't know...

Rock our world, Matt.

Oh, okay.

Matt Marvelous?

Heh. Well, I can barely hear him.

Just wait.

See? This guy rocks.

Well, if you say so.

If he didn't rock,

he wouldn't be a finalist in the contest.

Oh, no. Daniel!

What the...?

What's going on?

Incredible.

Let me go.

The vampire legend is true.

This is the life.

Yeah, it sure is.

Now that we've solved the mystery

of the sea smugglers...

...our vacation should be smooth sailing.

Great form, Daphne.

Ugh! Yeah, I'll say.

Oh, boy. This should do for an appetizer.

Whoa! Hey!

Mm, mm!

Hey, everybody, come take a look.

Sydney Harbour.

Wow, we're finally in Australia.

This is gonna be the best vacation ever.

Uh-huh.

And no vacation would be complete

without the Mystery Machine.

This guidebook says

Sydney has the best restaurants...

...in the entire southern hemisphere.

Like, that's great, Velma, but Scoob and I

have got the food situation covered.

Uh-huh. Mm, mm!

Doggie bag.

That's right, Scoob. Doggie bag.

Better eat now, guys.

We've got sightseeing to do

and pictures to take.

Say "Vegemite."

Vegemite.

What an incredible view.

Like, you can see

the whole continent up here.

The Sydney Harbour Bridge

is the world's largest free-standing bridge.

Like, that's a long way down,

huh, Scoob?

What's with the groovy ceiling

on that place?

That's the Sydney Opera House.

It's the city's most famous landmark.

It looks like an old-fashioned

sailing ship.

That's the idea, Shaggy.

Oh, wow.

What is it, Daphne?

I finally found what I've been looking for:

Bondi Beach.

Lunch is served.

Be right there, Freddy.

Come on, g*ng.

Everything's gonna get cold.

Let's catch this wave.

I'm hungry.

What a sheila.

I'll say, mate.

Scooby-Doo!

- Yipes!

- Zoinks!

Come on, Scoob, he's just a little guy.

No need to get all crabby.

Come here, you guys.

I've got a great idea.

How do you guys feel about

exploring the outback?

Outback?

Sure, Australia's not all beach.

The outback's the wild, inland part.

My guidebook says it makes up

almost 85 percent of the continent.

Like, I know what the outback is...

...and I don't want to go "out back"

to look at dust and trees.

Come on, Shaggy.

I'm sure there's more to see than that.

And I've got 17 rolls of film

to capture it all.

What if you could hear great music there?

In the middle of nowhere?

Not nowhere, there. Look.

The Vampire Rock Music Festival.

Vampire?

That sounds like a lot of fun, Freddy.

Vampire Rock is located right

in the middle of Australia.

We can see a lot of the outback

on our way there.

Uh, Scoob and I

don't think it's a good idea...

...going to a place where vampires rock.

That's asking for trouble.

Yeah, trouble.

That's just the name of the place.

And there's no such thing as vampires.

And I'm sure a festival that big...

...will have every concession stand

imaginable.

Licorice pizza,

chocolate-covered corn on the cob...

...tutti-frutti ice cream, ha-ha-ha...

...not to mention some great local food.

Ready.

Real music lovers.

Like, who ever heard of

Australian vampires, anyway?

The rules of the contest are very simple.

It's for unsigned bands,

no one can enter more than once...

...and as I've told you again and again,

each contestant only gets three minutes.

But the Bad Omens' best song lasts five.

Daniel and I have set the rules,

and rules are rules, Jasper.

Aw, can't you bend the rules a little?

Especially for such an upstanding group

of young people?

This better be important.

I've got things to pierce.

I'm trying to find a new shade of eyeliner.

You were saying?

Come on, Russell,

now that Matt Marvelous is gone...

...it's obvious the Bad Omens

are the best in the contest.

Why not just declare us the winner now?

Yeah, obviously.

Jasper, get out of my face

or the Bad Omens won't perform at all.

You're making a big mistake, Russell.

I didn't have to come back here.

Especially after what happened

to Wildwind last year.

But I am back. And I intend

to have my group win this time.

I'm warning you.

Let's get out of here.

- How much of that did you hear, partner?

- Enough.

Jasper's never gonna get over

what happened to Wildwind.

I can't believe it's been almost a year

since they disappeared.

From what you told me about last night,

it sounds like they're making a comeback.

Maybe it's true what they say.

About Wildwind

being turned into vampires?

Come on, that's just a local myth.

So, what do you think happened

to Matt Marvelous then?

You saw the vampires

with your own two eyes.

I don't know what I saw, Russell.

Well, the crew looked

all over Vampire Rock.

There's no sign of Matt or your vampires.

Maybe my grandfather was right.

Maybe we should postpone the festival.

No way. We've both worked too hard

to quit now, Daniel.

You're right. And the show must go on.

But this kidnapping makes me nervous,

Russell. Very nervous.

There's the Scooby Snacks.

Aren't you guys ever gonna stop

playing that game?

Like I said before,

nothing to look at but dust and trees.

You'd be surprised, Shaggy.

The outback is full of life.

Oh, boy. Like, I'll believe it when I see it.

Just a few more miles,

I mean kilometers.

Anyway, we're almost there.

It's amazing that they're having

a music festival way out here.

There it is, Vampire Rock.

- Wow.

- It's spectacular.

Man, we really are

in the middle of nowhere.

It says the locals call it Vampire Rock...

...because they believe the Yowie Yahoo

lives in the rock's caves.

The Yowie Yahoo?

An ancient Australian vampire.

Zoinks! We were wrong, Scoob.

There are Australian vampires.

Next time I agree to go to a place

named after a vampire...

...I need you to do me a favor, Scoob.

What?

Like, talk me out of it.

Are we in the right place, Freddy?

Uh-huh. This is it.

What is it, Scoob?

Like, very funny, Scoob.

You almost had me going there.

Like, what is it now?

Zoinks! It's the Yowie Yahoo.

Where?

Come on, you two.

We don't have time for games.

Like, it's no game. Scoob and I saw

the Yowie Yahoo right over there.

I already told you guys,

there's no such thing as a vampire.

But then, like,

what's making all that noise?

Whatever it is, it's moving closer.

Well, do something, Freddy.

Zoinks! It's the vampire.

Do you guys hear that?

Come on, there must be

somebody else around here.

I'm gonna cast a spell on you

This way.

You're gonna do what I want you to

Mix it up here in my little bowl

Say a few words and you lose control

I'm a Hex Girl

Hey, the Hex Girls.

Like, I knew those tunes

sounded familiar.

It is you.

Boy, are we glad to see you.

What are you doing here?

Well, we were on vacation.

And we thought

we'd check out the festival.

Cool. We're opening the festival.

How long have you guys been here?

A couple of days. Why?

Have you seen anything strange

since you arrived?

- Strange?

- Like what?

Like what? Like, how about big,

creepy and, like, scary?

I was wondering

why the music stopped.

We came to make sure you were all right.

- Of course we're all right.

- Why wouldn't we be?

Just checking. Are you gonna

introduce us to your friends?

Yeah. Daniel and Russell,

these are our friends from America:

- Fred, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy...

- And Scooby-Doo.

G'day.

Welcome. Sorry we interrupted.

We're trying to clear up some trouble.

What's going on?

The finalists in our unsigned-band contest

are disappearing.

Well, that's not good.

Like, did you say, ha, ha, "disappear"?

Mm-hm.

The groups are bailing

as quickly as they arrive.

They hear Matt has been kidnapped

and go from "g'day " to "good-bye."

Kidnapped? By who?

Like, maybe by big, creepy

and, like, scary...

Vampire.

Daniel, I warned you

terrible things would happen.

Like, who was that spooky old man?

That was my grandfather,

Malcolm Illiwara.

Oh. Ha, ha.

I meant "spooky" in a good way.

You'll have to forgive him. He's very upset.

Like, I understand.

I'm pretty upset myself right now.

What did your grandfather mean

by "terrible things"?

The Yowie Yahoo.

Zoinks! Like, you mean the vampire

who lives in there?

Yeah, him and his vampire minions.

Minions? You mean he has help?

Well, so they say.

But there's no such thing as vampires.

Don't you mean rock-star vampires?

That's Wildwind.

I've seen groups like Wildwind

in my parents' record collection.

Yeah. Check out the makeup and costumes.

This poster must be from

a long time ago.

Nope. The members of Wildwind are

only a couple of years older than you.

Wildwind wanted to

bring glam rock back.

They did an amazing song

at last year's unsigned-band contest.

Dark Skull played guitar,

Stormy Weathers played bass...

...and Lightning Strikes was on drums.

Wow. So you saw them perform?

I sure did.

They deserved better than third place.

What happened to them?

After they lost the contest,

they went up to Vampire Rock to camp.

They were never heard from again.

They just disappeared?

The locals believe the Yowie Yahoo

turned them into vampires.

I'm with the locals.

That would explain

the big, creepy, like, scary...

All right, Shaggy, we get your point.

There's no such thing as vampires.

You said it yourself, Daniel.

Well, maybe not.

But Daniel says he saw Matt Marvelous...

...get kidnapped by three vampires

who looked like Wildwind.

I never actually said "vampires."

Do you have a better explanation?

Whoever or whatever they were,

they were pretty convincing.

Now I don't know what to think.

When did this all start, Daniel?

Ever since I was a boy...

...my grandfather told me the Yowie Yahoo

lived in Vampire Rock.

I never believed him,

but in the past few months...

...there have been a lot of strange lights

and sounds coming from up there.

I'd love to find out

what's really going on.

Well, g*ng, it looks like we have

another mystery on our hands.

A mystery?

We'll need to investigate this

from the inside.

And the best way to do that

is to go undercover as a rock band.

If we're lucky, the Wildwind vampires

will try to kidnap us next.

Like, I don't wanna be that lucky.

That's a great idea, Freddy.

I'm not so sure about this.

They may be our only hope.

I guess it could work...

...especially if it keeps my pick to win

from getting kidnapped.

And who's that?

Two Skinny Dudes.

They haven't shown up yet.

I know you've never seen them perform,

but trust me, they're the real deal.

So, what do you say?

Well, okay.

But don't say I didn't warn you.

Scoob and I wouldn't mind

sitting this one out.

Uh-huh.

Like, maybe the group should be a trio.

Come on, you chickens.

Luna, Dusk and I

will help you look the part.

Yeah, there's a wardrobe room

backstage.

This is gonna be fun.

Like, I knew coming to a place

called Vampire Rock was a bad idea.

How do rock stars walk in these?

Pretend they're high heels.

I'm not good at those either.

I don't know how well we'll play,

but, well, at least we look the part.

I hope we don't have to play at all.

I thought you loved to sing, Velma.

Not in front of so many people.

I get stage fright.

Huh. Well, I get vampire fright.

Hey, look at this.

Makeup?

Stage makeup, actually.

So the audience can see you better.

Like, Matt Marvelous was a musician.

Even so, I doubt he'd wear this color.

It's glowing white.

And look at this, it's a footprint.

From a hiking boot, to be exact.

- Wow, that's strange.

- How so?

The print is sticky like glue.

But it's not glue exactly.

I don't know what it is.

You're the new competition?

Yeah, we're taking Matt Marvelous'

place in the contest.

You must be Jasper Ridgeway.

And you must be the Bad Omens.

Russell warned...

Uh, I mean, told us about you.

Whoever heard of band with a dog in it?

Why don't you amateurs take a break?

Yeah, it's time for a real band to play.

Let's go, g*ng, we need to set up camp

for the night, anyway.

Camping? Heh. How primitive.

I choose to travel in a fully furnished,

air-conditioned trailer.

Russell told us about another band

- Wildwind.

Oh!

Yes, they were true superstars.

I had such high hopes for them.

Until that fateful night last year.

I don't like to talk about it.

It's just too upsetting.

Well, back to the trailer.

I can't take this heat any longer.

Enjoy your rehearsal.

Stupid golf cart.

Nice to meet you too.

Let's get out of these costumes

and start looking for clues.

And get you into

more comfortable shoes.

I think we may have just met

our so-called vampires.

The Bad Omens?

Exactly.

Jasper Ridgeway seems like the kind of guy

who'd do anything to have his band win.

- You think he put them up to it?

- Mm-hm.

The makeup the Bad Omens were wearing

looks like the stage makeup I found.

Hmm. Maybe we should talk to Daniel

and Russell and find out more about them.

I bet Jasper's trailer

could tell us a thing or two.

Yeah, let's check it out.

Shaggy and Scooby,

you see what you can dig up around here.

Like, we'll leave no snow cone...

I mean, stone unturned.

Jasper wasn't kidding

when he said he travels in style.

We've gotta get a look inside.

How are we gonna do that?

We need to lure him out.

And I've got a plan.

- Fred?

- Wait, this is brilliant.

I'm gonna go off into those bushes there

and imitate the call of a wild kookaburra.

But, Fred...

Hold on, Velma, I'm on a roll.

Now, Daphne, I want you

to disguise yourself...

...as an aboriginal medicine woman and...

- Fred.

- What?

Or we could just use the front door.

Or that.

All clear.

This is better than a museum.

Whoa. Totally retro.

You're telling me.

Look, it's a, ha-ha-ha, waterbed.

Seems like Jasper

can't let go of the past.

In more ways than one.

Come on, girls, we gotta work fast.

Jasper could show up at any minute.

There's so much stuff in here...

...it's gonna be hard to tell the clues

from the collectibles.

Jinkies!

I think I already found one.

Great work, Velma.

This looks exactly like the costume...

...Dark Skull of Wildwind

wore in that poster.

The costumes for Lightning Strikes

and Stormy Weathers are in here too.

So Jasper Ridgeway has reproductions

of all the Wildwind costumes.

Interesting.

They call this Australian bread "damper."

But, like, it's sure not putting a damper

on my appetite.

Mm!

Like, what's next, old buddy?

Vampires.

Zoinks! Like, now I'm not hungry at all.

What the...?

What is that?

Gosh, what happened here?

What's with all this smoke?

It burns my eyes.

It smells so sweet, like cotton candy.

Cotton candy?

Shaggy and Scooby?

What happened to the Bad Omens?

Like, the Yowie Yahoo

and the Wildwind vampires...

...showed up and band-napped them.

Scoob and I thought we were next.

Yeah.

Hmm.

Well, there goes our prime suspects.

You actually saw

the Wildwind vampires, Shaggy?

We both did.

Uh-huh.

What did they look like?

Exactly like the guys

on that poster, only scarier.

And, like, they had those

creepy red eyes.

Yeah, red.

Well, whoever it was,

they kidnapped the Bad Omens.

Kidnapped? Not again.

The Bad Omens can't be kidnapped.

They need to win the contest.

Like, it's a good thing

you weren't here, Jasper.

Those vampires would have flown off

with you too.

I wish they had.

Now I'll be plagued by guilt.

I should have stayed with them

instead of going back to my trailer.

Trailer...? Hmm.

What happened here?

My band is gone.

What are we going to do?

There's strength in numbers.

Let's get the Hex Girls and Russell,

and then camp in one group.

Russell already went home,

along with all the other festival staff.

Like, I wish I could say the same thing.

And if the vampires come back

when we're sleeping, what then?

We can take turns standing watch.

And you guys

have the first tour of duty...

...which starts now.

Would you each do it

for a Scooby Snack?

Or maybe two Scooby Snacks?

There might be room in my tummy

for a Scooby Snack or two, ha, ha.

How about you, Scoob?

Yeah, yeah. Scooby Snack.

Like, everyone get some rest, because

you're being watched over by the best.

Huh?

Zoinks! Not again.

Like, it's the vampires.

Run!

The vampires are in a motorcycle g*ng?

You're not vampires. Like, who are you?

Two Skinny Dudes.

Like, me too. Ha-ha-ha.

We're the band Two Skinny Dudes.

I'm Barry and this is my brother, Harry.

Finally. I've heard so much about you

from Russell.

- Glad you made it here all right.

- Why wouldn't we?

Some of the other bands

have been kidnapped.

By vampires.

If you weren't kidnapped,

where have you been?

Exploring Vampire Rock.

We liked it so much,

we decided to camp up there.

But we didn't see a single vampire.

Matt Marvelous

and the Bad Omens sure did.

And the other finalists got so scared

they all drove back to Sydney.

That means we're the only ones left?

Does this mean we win the contest?

Not quite. We had a last-minute entry.

Like, ha, ha, what do you think?

Keep working on it.

What's all the racket?

Did you find my band?

No, but we found another one.

Jasper, meet Two Skinny Dudes.

Ah, Two Skinny Dudes.

Russell tells me

you're the next big thing.

You boys have a manager?

Um...

No.

Groovy. Groovy! Ha, ha.

Why don't you come into my trailer...

...and let me tell you what I can do

for your careers.

Jeepers. He works fast.

Hmm. Jasper seemed to forget about

the Bad Omens pretty quickly.

We should get going.

We've still got two missing bands out there

and the concert starts tonight at 6.

What's with all the noise?

How are we supposed to rest

for the show tonight?

In other words, would you mind?

Huh. Divas.

I pulled up more research on vampires.

Anything on how to avoid them?

You can ask my grandfather.

He knows all about the local legends.

Especially the Yowie Yahoo.

Let's see. "Vampires hate sunlight.

They can't cross running water."

"The more people a vampire

puts under his control...

...the greater his power becomes."

That would explain why the Yowie Yahoo

is having Wildwind kidnap people.

That is, if you believe he's real.

Hmm. It also says, "Vampires don't appear

on film when their pictures are taken."

Like, maybe they're just camera shy.

Here we are, Fred. Up there.

Ahead on the left.

Grandfather,

these are some friends of mine.

Fred, Daphne, Velma,

Shaggy and Scooby.

Yes, I saw you at the festival.

They're here to help with our problem.

Like, what's the deal

with the smoke signals?

There's a tribal council meeting later today.

I'm letting the others know.

You could just use the phone,

Grandfather.

We've always used smoke signals

to announce tribal council meetings.

The smoke smells really good.

What are you burning?

The wood is from the red gum tree.

We use its flowers to make honey.

That red gum over there is in full bloom.

Huh?

It is good of all of you

to take me to the council meeting.

Daniel was telling us that you know...

...all about the Yowie Yahoo legend,

Mr. Illiwara.

Please, call me Malcolm.

I can tell you many things

about the Yowie Yahoo, young lady.

But you may not like what you hear.

Can you tell us what happened

to Wildwind?

Wildwind foolishly went up

to Vampire Rock after dark.

They were easy prey

for the Yowie Yahoo...

...just like all the people

attending the festival will be.

So, like, what can we do to keep him

and his rock-star pals away?

According to legend, the only thing

that can destroy a vampire is sunlight.

According to legends, Grandfather.

It's believed they also fear the dingo.

They could be your distant cousins, Scoob.

Like, see if they'll help us out.

Uh-uh. Uh-uh.

Don't bother me, Scoob.

Looks like vampires

aren't the only monsters around here.

Like, that crocodile almost had

his very own Scooby Snack.

Thank goodness he didn't.

I scheduled your group

to perform tonight.

Perform?

Right after the Hex Girls.

We hope you'll come, Malcolm.

I can't, not when I believe the festival

shouldn't take place at all.

I know how you feel, Grandfather,

but I've got a show to do.

Look, look. Smoke.

They're answering my smoke signals.

It's my friend on the other side

of Vampire Rock.

We're almost there.

Can you show me how to do that?

Like, if the vampires come back,

I want to send an SOS.

"Save our Shaggy."

One, two, three, four.

Who do voodoo?

We do voodoo

Who do voodoo?

We do

Who do voodoo?

We do voodoo

Who do voodoo?

We do

We do

We do

We do

Come on

- Jinkies.

- There really is a Yowie Yahoo.

That's what I've been trying to tell you.

No. Not now.

Hey, you're ruining our encore.

The Hex Girls are in trouble.

Now what?

They must be heading to Vampire Rock.

We need to go after them.

Great idea, Fred.

While you're gone, Scoob and I

will practice our number.

Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh.

Uh, weren't the Hex Girls terrific?

We'll be taking a short break.

See you real soon.

What are we gonna do?

Maybe my grandfather was right.

Where's Russell?

We've gotta cancel the rest of the show.

Not yet. I've got a plan that will end this

once and for all.

Now here's what we do...

I knew Vampire Rock was big,

but not this big.

It's going to be harder

finding the Hex Girls than we thought.

We need to split up.

Daphne, Velma and I will head this way.

Shaggy and Scooby,

you circle around in the other direction.

Uh, vacation has really brought us

closer together.

Like, it's a shame to split up now.

Vampire Rock seems to be just that.

Solid rock.

There's gotta be a way in somehow.

You were saying?

Like, we've walked all the way

around this creepy rock.

Like, what was that?

Quit kidding around, Scoob.

Dingo dogs.

Secret passages always lead somewhere.

Hmm. Right now, we should be

experiencing total cave darkness.

But we're not, so...

There must be light coming

from inside the cave.

Over there.

Wow.

I was expecting a vampire's lair

to be more...

I don't know, spooky.

It's like an underground warehouse.

These lanterns didn't light themselves.

Right, Velma. They're only big enough

to hold a few hours' worth of oil.

That means someone had to be here

a little while ago.

They also used the equipment.

This fan is still warm.

And so is this light.

This equipment's been used, all right.

The question is why?

And where?

And by who?

No coffins?

Fred. Velma.

We can't run. We can't climb.

How are we gonna get out of here?

Good try, buddy, but we need a miracle.

Huh?

Like I said, a miracle.

Or Daphne doing a dive off a cliff.

- That's a 10.

- Thanks, guys.

What a mess.

You think Daphne's in here?

If she is, she's not alone.

I'm gonna check down here.

Daphne. Daphne.

My glasses.

I lost my glasses.

Thanks, Freddy.

I was getting worried.

Now I am worried.

Velma. Did you find Daphne?

Wherever Daphne is...

...she's a lot safer than we are.

Run!

And he was hanging upside down.

Then he took off after me.

Come on,

we've gotta find Fred and Velma.

Geronimo!

Or, like, they could find us.

Fred. Velma. You're all right.

Not if we don't get out of here.

Zoinks! Like, I need a vacation

from this vacation.

Like, it's the Yowie Yahoo.

Yowie Yahoo.

Come on. Everyone over the bridge.

Yikes!

Like, if there was ever a time

not to be calm, this is it.

Scooby. Like, get back here.

Like, the Yowie Yahoo

sure is full of hot air.

Freddy, are you okay?

Now I know how my socks feel

in the dryer.

I feel the same way, Scooby.

It's the dingo dogs.

They're getting away.

They've gotta get inside

before the sun comes out.

Hey, Scoob, tell your cousins, like,

"Don't leave us here with the Yowie Yahoo."

Hang on tight, guys.

Like, Fred, do we have a choice?

The sun is almost up.

The Yowie Yahoo has to get inside

Vampire Rock too.

If he doesn't, the sun will destroy him.

Scooby, you did it.

You defeated the Yowie Yahoo.

Like, he sure didn't go quietly.

How about that, Scooby?

You're an honorary dingo.

Dingo? Hooray.

But what about the Hex Girls?

Like, we could just ask the vampires

where they are.

Quick. Over the bridge.

Don't worry, g*ng. I've got you.

As long as you've got us and they don't.

The sunlight destroyed the Yowie Yahoo.

Why isn't it destroying Wildwind?

You want to stop and ask them

or keep on running?

No thanks.

Like, we just crossed running water.

The vampires shouldn't be able

to follow us.

Didn't those vampires

read the rule book?

Now!

Nyah-nyah, nyah-nyah, nyah-nyah.

Nice work, Daniel.

I didn't think anything

would stop those vampires.

That's because they're not real vampires.

If they were,

they wouldn't have been captured on film.

Jolly good work.

You've snared the vampires.

Now we can find out

what happened to the bands.

At first we thought the Bad Omens

were behind all this.

But when they disappeared,

we had to search for new suspects.

Well, I'll be. Two Skinny Dudes.

That's two vampires. Who's the third?

Russell.

Russell, you were my partner.

This doesn't make any sense.

Like, I'm with Daniel.

Nobody say anything.

That's fine.

We can do all the talking

and still get to the bottom of this mystery.

It took us a while

to put all the pieces together.

When we saw Jasper getting so chummy

with the Two Skinny Dudes...

...we thought he might be

the third vampire.

Me?

I could never wear all that makeup.

I've got very sensitive skin.

You managed the Bad Omens, Jasper.

We thought you took

some of their makeup...

...so you and the Two Skinny Dudes

could copy Wildwind's glam-rock look.

We also paid a visit to your trailer

when you said you'd be there.

You were nowhere to be found.

That's not a crime.

Okay, okay. Confession time.

I wasn't in my trailer...

...because I was meeting with the Hex Girls

about being their manager.

I didn't want the Bad Omens

to find out what I was doing.

But that doesn't explain why you have

costumes like the ones Wildwind wore.

Wildwind was the greatest band

I ever managed.

I had those costumes made to remind me

of all the good times we had together.

- I wish I knew what happened to them.

- Why don't you ask them yourself?

What the...?

Okay. Like, now I'm really confused.

Me too.

Recognize them now?

I don't believe it. Wildwind, you're alive.

We should have won that contest

last year.

When we didn't,

we decided to disappear.

We thought

disappearing would help our careers.

But the rules of the contest

meant we couldn't enter again.

We planned on

making a triumphant return...

...at this year's unsigned band contest.

That's when you came up with

a way to get around those rules...

...and make sure

you'd win this year's contest.

With Dark Skull already posing as Russell...

...Stormy Weathers and Lightning Strikes

became the Two Skinny Dudes...

...an unsigned band in the contest.

The three took advantage

of the local legend surrounding them...

...and disguised themselves as vampires.

They planned to kidnap

all the other bands in the contest...

...then Two Skinny Dudes

would be declared the winner.

But the crowd wouldn't see

Two Skinny Dudes close out the festival.

Instead, Wildwind would come on stage

and perform.

They hoped all the attention

from closing the show at Vampire Rock...

...would make their careers take off.

I'm starting to get it.

But, like, if they're not vampires,

how did they fly?

Easy, Shaggy.

Their mountain-climbing equipment.

They rigged it to the stage so they

could swoop down and kidnap the acts.

This is all very interesting.

But will somebody please tell me

where the Bad Omens are?

That's one answer we don't have.

We sent them and Matt Marvelous

on diving trips to the Great Barrier Reef.

All expenses paid. They were thrilled.

Like, you should have just asked us.

I've been wanting to leave since I got here.

Uh-huh.

We didn't really kidnap anybody.

What about the Hex Girls?

They weren't your competition.

But you were.

We knew you would come after them...

...giving us the chance

to send you on your way as well.

Where are the Hex Girls now?

Don't worry.

We're fine.

Thorn, Dusk, Luna. You're all right.

Those creepy guys took us back

to their hideout in Vampire Rock.

They offered us a free trip if we would

leave the festival, but we refused.

So they took us into the outback

and left us there.

We'd keep looking until we found you,

making us miss our chance to perform.

And leave Two Skinny Dudes

as the only group left in the contest.

Like, how did you find your way

back here?

We wandered around the outback for hours,

until Malcolm found us.

The way they were dressed,

I first thought they were vampires too.

There are no vampires, Grandfather.

Daniel's right, Mr. Illiwara.

Wildwind is definitely human.

They used smoke whenever they flew

so no one could see their climbing ropes.

You helped us figure that part out, sir.

They burned wood from the red gum tree,

making sweet smoke like your signals.

And, like, that's why we also found

a boot print made from red gum on stage.

What about the Yowie Yahoo?

We've got an explanation for that too.

I'm sure you do.

Wildwind spent a lot of time

perfecting their act.

They're masters of special effects.

They used pictures of the

Yowie Yahoo to help pull off their hoax.

They placed the pictures

on holographic discs.

When light was shined through the discs...

...three-dimensional images

of the Yowie Yahoo were created.

These images could be beamed anywhere

to help Wildwind with their plan.

To make the Yowie Yahoo

even more realistic...

...they added fire, wind and explosions.

So because he was just a projection...

...the sunlight reflecting off of Scooby's tag

made the Yowie Yahoo disappear.

Bingo, Shaggy.

Thanks to Scooby,

we were able to solve the mystery.

Uh-huh.

I'm sorry, Daniel...

...for letting my belief in the vampire legend

get in the way of your show.

Wildwind had us all fooled, Grandfather.

And we would have gotten away with it too

if it weren't for you meddling kids.

Hey, since the other bands are eliminated,

that makes you guys the winner.

Does that mean what I think it means?

And now I'd like to introduce the final act

in this year's Vampire Rock Music Festival.

But first, did everyone have a good time?

I said, did everybody have a good time?

I'm not having a good time.

Come on, Velma, this is gonna be fun.

But there's so many people. Besides,

we don't even have a name for our group.

Name?

And now help me welcome

the Meddling Kids.

"Meddling Kids"?

Works for me.

Scooby-Dooby-Doo, where are you?

We've got some work to do now

Scooby-Dooby-Doo

Where are you?

We need some help from you now

Come on, Scooby-Doo

I see you

Pretending you got a sliver

But you're not fooling me

'Cause I can see

The way you shake and shiver

You know we got a mystery to solve

So, Scooby-Doo, be ready for your act

Don't hold back

And, Scooby-Doo, if you come through

You're gonna have yourself

A Scooby Snack

That's a fact

Yeah

Scooby-Dooby-Doo

Where are you?

You're ready and you're willing

If we can count on you

Scooby-Doo

I know we're gonna catch that villain

Yeah, I know we'll catch that villain

I know we'll catch that villain

Scooby-Dooby-Doo!
