What Parents Need to Know

About Scooby-Doo and The Loch Ness Monster

Parents need to know that this feature is simply a longer version of the typical Scooby-Doo television cartoon. Sexuality, language, commercialism, and substance use are non-issues. The only potential red flag is the violence, which is rendered in very comic fashion -- no deaths, no injuries, but plenty of wacky chases. The monster that creates the violence is an evil-looking serpent-like creature and is potentially scary, especially to very young viewers. The film leaves open the possibility that the monster does truly exist, unlike most Scooby-Doo episodes, which typically expose monsters to be hoaxes perpetrated by unhappy humans.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about how the open ending is different from other Scooby-Doo adventures. Could there really be a Loch Ness monster? Why did Fiona Pembroke need to fake the monster if there is a real one?

    I rate this title on for age 8 and give it 4.0

    Great for kids that are 8+.

    When I was a little kid I loved to watch scooby-doo!!! There is nothing wrong with it for kids that are 8 and older. It might scare little kids, but that all. Scooby-Doo is the best!!!

    No way would I show this to young children. Scarey and inappropriate content.
