NOT A CLASSIC BUT GOOD January 14, 2005 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Street salesman Daffy Duck inherits a million dollars from the estate of J.B. Cubish, then sets up a ghost-busting service with pals Bugs Bunny and Porky Pig for the purposes of destroying Cubish's ghost. This is basically some new animation which frames several other older Warner Brothers shorts:
The Prize Pest 1951 - Porky wins Daffy as a prize, and he wants to put him outside in the coop. Daffy convinces Porky that he's a Jekyll and Hyde personality, and that he shouldn't be made angry. Daffy finds different ways to scare the heck out of Porky.
Water, Water Every Hare - 1952 - A mad scientist is after Bugs Bunny's brain. Bugs wakes up from his trance, and the scientist sends the big, orange monster to catch Bugs.
Hyde and Go Tweet 1960 - Tweety takes refuge in Dr. Jekyll's house and is changed into a monster.
Claws for Alarm 1954 - Sylvester is terrified when he and Porky spend the night in a ghost town motel that's inhabited by murderous mice that Porky never notices.
The Duxorcist 1987 - Warners first new short in almost 20 years. Daffy Duck has started his own business, a "paranormalist-at-large" exorcism service. In comes a beautiful duck. Unfortunately, she is possessed by an evil spirit that turns her into a hideous, ugly beast.
Abominable Snow Rabbit 1961 - Bugs and Daffy tunnel to Nepal, where they meet Hugo. Hugo wants to hug them and pet them and hold them and squeeze them and name them George.
Transylvania 6-5000 1963 - After taking a wrong left turn, Bugs ends up in the castle of a bloodthirsty Count. Luckily, Bugs knows the secret work, and confounds the Count's attempts to retrieve Bugs' blood.
Punch Trunk 1953 - A five-inch-high elephant arrives at Pier 38 in New York City in a boatload of bananas. The city is paralyzed by what its residents take to be a mass hallucination.
Jumpin' Jupiter 1955 - Porky and Sylvester set up camp in the desert, where a flying saucer lands. While Sylvester is terrified by a goofy-looking space alien and his saucer, Porky is oblivious to everything that is happening around them.
These are not the best Warner's shorts. Prize Pest and Claws for Alarm are very funny but the shorts from the 1960's clearly show WArner's reduced quality in their animation.
Interesting Movie December 17, 2003 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
In case anyone didnt know, this is an animated film made in the late 80s. Daffy Duck inherets money from his rich uncle and starts a ghost hunting company with Bugs and Porky. Although Daffy is the star, all the classic WB characters apear in this film. This is a pretty good movie, as it combines a bunch of classic Warner Bros cartoons together into one story with new animation. The new footage is nicely animated, although the difference between it and the old cartoons are quite noticable. However, the writers do a good job of making tons of old cartoons flow together as one story. This is a good movie, but it is by no means "one of the best animated movies of all time" as other reviewers have said. Its a good movie of course and it entertains, but it is not a classic animated feature. Why, it has no comparision by the countless classic Disney features released decades before this. But if you take it for what it is, you will enjoy it.
Finest Animated Film of All Time!!!! October 6, 2003 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is not only the best Loony Toons film, but quite possibly the best animated film of all time!!! I remember when this movie first came out in 1988, I rented it CONSTANTLY until my parents finally bought it for me. I have gone through several copies and am waiting for my latest copy to arrive in the mail. This is THE BEST movie ever!!! It is hilarious and GREAT for halloween coming up!! Buy this movie! It rocks!
Lazy, but Still Worth While August 3, 2001 1 out of 7 found this review helpful
This movie is lazy because there isn't much new footage, but it's OK because the shorts they put in it are pretty good.
DAFFY DAFFY DAFFY DAFFY DAFFY! March 7, 2000 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is my favorite Daffy Duck movie. It all start like this a millionaire leaves Daffy money but he must use the money for good and needs to provide a service to people and if Daffy thinks of selfish aims the millionaire (ghost) will make the money disappear so Daffy opens an exorcism agency and Porky, Bugs, and Sylvester work with him and they have to attend cases of ghosts and monsters in a very original way I really recommend this video why WB doesn't start releasing classics like this on DVD, Fantastic Island (Daffy's First Movie 1983), Looney Looney Looney Bugs Bunny Movie, The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Movie and all of those cartoons on video I'm sure that many kids will buy at as many other adults trying to remember their childhood.
