Scooby-Doo! And KISS: Rock and Roll Mystery out now on DVD #ad

KISS, one of the most popular rock bands of all time, takes center stage in the latest Scooby-Doo! full-length animated film, Scooby-Doo! & KISS: Rock & Roll Mystery. Starchild, Demon, Catman and Spaceman join everyone’s favorite teen sleuths in an explosive, new, must-see musical adventure no KISS Army member will want to miss! In Scooby-Doo! And KISS: Rock and Roll Mystery, the Mystery Inc. gang travels to KISS World, an amusement park dedicated to the band, for a special Halloween concert headlined by the legendary rock group.  

It’s a rockin’ good time for the Scooby-Doo gang…or is it? A major concert featuring the world-famous rock band KISS is in jeopardy and legions of KISS fans will be let down, unless Scooby-Doo and his pals solve a perplexing mystery that’s keeping concert goers from the venue where the band is to perform.

The highly anticipated sold out concert, which is taking place on Halloween night at KISS World, gets dangerously close to being cancelled for security reasons after park visitors are frightened away from the premises by the Crimson Witch.

At KISS World the gang meets all four members of KISS, who agree to let Scooby, Shaggy, Fred, Daphne and Velma help them solve the mystery of the Crimson Witch. Together they embark on an unforgettable, rocking and rolling adventure. They discover that the Crimson Witch has come to KISS World to summon The Destroyer, an evil being from the alternate dimension of Kissteria! Together, the wicked duo’s ghastly plan is to destroy the earth! Can the gang’s cunning and KISS’s power of rock save the day?! Tune in to this rock and roll mystery for some thunderous, heavy FUN!

Jam-packed with special guest stars, Scooby-Doo! And KISS: Rock and Roll Mystery features guest voice performances from Kevin Smith, Jason Mewes, Darius Rucker, Garry Marshall, Penny Marshall, Jennifer Carpenter and Pauley Perrette. In addition, six KISS songs will be featured alongside an original new song performed by the band just for the film.  



My son is a huge Scooby Doo fan, so he was excited when this movie arrived.  Of course we had to watch it right away.  He was not familiar with KISS, and was actually shocked to learn they were a real music band.   Just like all other Scooby movies, the gang stumble across a mystery to be solved. 

Daphne, who has an enormous crush on KISS member Starchild, masterminds a plan to see the band in concert by telling the Scooby Gang that they have been asked to solve a mystery.  She knew Fred would never want to go to the concert if a mystery was not involved.   Lucky for them, when they arrive, the soon learn that there is a mystery and they are ready for the task.   There was an entire section of the movie that showed the KISS members having special powers, that did confuse my son.  Being a Scooby fan, he knew that the mysteries are caused by people in costumes, computers and more.  So he was not sure of the alternate dimensions, flying KISS characters and more.  They did explain it was a sort of dream sequence afterwards, so it helped him to understand it afterwards.

It was a very different Scooby movie then we were used to, but different is good!  He was introduced to the music of KISS and loved some of the songs!
