The reviews weren't kidding. I freaking remember this movie when I was young and revisiting it again was my biggest mistake because I knew everything about the damn plot but I wanted to be on point about it! This movie is directly stealing a lot of material from mainly Hocus Pocus and Earnest Scared Stupid. I really hate the CGI puppy throughout half the film. It is so uncanny and it does not fit in with the live action. There is not much to say about this movie, I am serious! Like, you can easily point out the same scenarios that this movie is using on the two movies I just mentioned. The only thing I found hilarious about this film was Hoot the Owl turning to stone as he falls like one of those rubber creature toys you get at a dollar store and Budderball's fart counter attacking the demon hound's stony breath like Goku's Kaioken Kamehameha blasting down Vegeta's Galick Gun XDDDDDD.

It's a decent kids movie. If it doesn't appeal to adults that's because it's marketed towards kids.

Harland Williams is a treasure. His entire filmography is just one cinematic masterpiece after another. These days he mostly does voice work and kid's movies, but that's where the real money is anyway so it's a brilliant move by a master strategist. Spooky Buddies is, in a word, terrifying. Five puppies are killed in the first five minutes. This is to let you know this isn't your daddy's Buddies movie. And don't @ me, I know they all come back at the end. That doesn't mean they weren't dead those 80 years. While my love for Harland knows no bounds, the really stars here are the puppies. Across the board great performances. Rose Bud especially. The human actors could learn a trick or two from these puppies. The masterful Robert Vince knows how to make a dog movie and it shows here. The set is his chess board and when Vince is firing on all cylinders each scene is perfectly paced, bringing everything to a slow boil until BOOM everything speeds towards genre bending conclusion. Highly recommended.

Being a huge fan of the Buddies movies, I was really excited about this movie when I heard it was coming out. The gap between this one and "Santa Buddies" was nearly two years. ("The Search for Santa Paws" doesn't count.) For a while, this movie has been rumored, but I've found no info of it either on IMDb, Wikipedia, or even the official Buddies website. But now it's here. But enough about that, let's move on to the review... Sadly, I'd have to say that this movie was not worth the wait. Compared to it's predecessors, "Spooky Buddies" was a huge letdown. Nobody I recognized worked on the movie (with the exception of Michael Bolton, who was the production manager for some reason), the story is unoriginal, the characters are uninspiring, the Buddies are not shown very much despite the fact that they are the titular characters, the CG effects badly rip off "Casper", and there's a lot of logic in the movie that makes so little sense that I'm sure the Nostalgia Critic will have a fit about! I never thought I'd say this, but this was easily the worst of the Buddies movies. At first I thought Disney would never disappoint me with this franchise. (I'm still not sure why so many people hate these movies.) "Space Buddies" did come pretty close, but "Spooky Buddies takes the cake. On a positive note, "Treasure Buddies" was a considerable improvement. I'll just hope that Disney will continue to make these Buddies movies and make them the way they should be made.

This movie is awful. However, for reasons unbeknown to me, my kid likes this movie. *Spoiler* You have been warned. To respond to a few of the reviews, in the context of the movie, it makes sense that the old guy would hide the book in the church, given that most people in previous generations went to church - even if they weren't 'believers'. People are correct when they say that all viewers aren't Christian, but it is also correct to point out that a lot of Disney viewers are Christians and support the Disney brand because they tend to be family-friendly. It's a delicate line movie makers walk to tell their stories. I'm not sure how you'd tell this particular story and exclude the church and the "good/evil" element. It would have lost a lot of its 'punch'. Honestly, I thought this scene w/the old man and the kids in the church was the best part of the movie. Besides the end.

I showed this movie last October as part of a Family Movie Night and 72 people came to watch it. No one complained about any religious overtones and believe me they would have gone to my director if they did. I found this movie enjoyable for adults and children and one of the best buddies movie they have made. It was perfect for the season. As a matter a fact I will be showing it again this month as there were no other recent family Halloween movies to show my audience. This movie had my audience laughing and enjoying themselves. Don't read too much into a movie, just sit back and have fun like my viewers do. The Buddie movies are harmless, family fun and I always draw at least 30 people to this event. I wish there were more harmless movies made to show families. I was surprised to see that this movie had only a 4.6 rating on IMDb, it should at least be a 7.

My six year old son found this movie to "spooky" to finish. He begged me to turn it off because he was scared. I found it cute and was surprised he didn't like it, since he is such a big fan of these films. At the time I rented it, the clerk warned me that some other children also found it scary. In the end, I will say it was a great movie in the lines of these movies, but just be prepared for your little one to get a little scared. I will try it again, when he is older, possibly next year. I would also like to mention that people need to remember these movie are made for small children so silly, over acting is expected.
