Kiss Join Scooby-Doo for a New Adventure



Bark it, bark it, bark it out loud! Kiss are joining those meddling kids again for a new animated movie, Scooby-Doo! and Kiss: Rock and Roll Mystery, which will be released direct to Blu-ray, DVD and digital HD on July 10. Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer voice their characters.

Scooby, Shaggy and the rest of the gang are attending a headlining Halloween concert by Kiss at the band’s amusement park, Kiss World, when trouble looms. They end up partnering to take on the Crimson Witch, a spooky villain who plans to summon the evil Destroyer from the alternate world of Kissteria. (If all else fails, Kiss could always scare her off with a few deep cuts from The Elder, right? We kid! We kid!)

Scooby-Doo! and Kiss: Rock and Roll Mystery will include a new song created by Kiss just for the movie, plus six classic tracks. Fellow voice stars include Kevin Smith, Garry and Penny Marshall, Darius Rucker and others.

This isn’t the first time that Kiss have climbed aboard the Mystery Machine; it isn’t their first Halloween-themed caper either. The band appeared as part of a 2003 episode of What’s New, Scooby Doo? Back then, Kiss played a costume party when the ghost of Hank Banning arrives. Simmons, Stanley and company provided the soundtrack as our youthful sleuths – and their Scooby snack-scarfing dog, of course – saved the day.
