I have to ask myself why do we get these classic cartoons and try to update them. What we have here is a stretched put episode of Scooby Doo which on its own would not be too bad, it is just when they try to modernise them that it fails to work and I for one can not see the sense in it. Surely from a quality and economic point of view it would just be better to shot kids the clearly superior originals (pre Scrappy obviously). Anyway the premise here is that the crew are holidaying in Australia and are due to go to The Vampire Rock Festival. As one would guess a mystery becomes apparent that the kids have to solve. Now the classic Scooby elements work well but where it goes wrong is when the try to bring it up to date with the gay references and the rock music (but still incredibly keep Fred in a cravat). This frankly does not work and would have been best left alone. I have seen worse updates of classics but still I would avoid this and stick to the originals.
score 3/10
