Bloodsucking Fruit Bats of the Lower Amazon

Transylvanian Take-Away

Two crooks try to steal 2 Ming vases from Duckula, but fail. They then tell him that they are a map to the hidden treasure of How Fat. Later on, the mandarin of How Fat, his henchmen and the penguins try to beat the count to the treasure but end up being arrested.

Who Dunnit

Duckula is called to England to hear the will of the 7th Duke of Mallardborough, ("his great, great uncle, twice removed") It appears the Duke was murdered and after many charcaters were interviewed Duckula was made to confess. He is just about to be sentanced when the Duke arrives claiming that the "will" was just scrap pages from me detective novel!"

Duckula tries to flee from a monster Igor created, Dr von Goosewig, some village folk, a werewolf, a mummy and an alien disguised as a cabbage.

Lost City of Atlantis

Duckula becomes stranded on a very small island and finds the lost city of Atlantis, whose people capture him.

Bad Luck Duck

Duckula has bad luck when he tries to disprove Nanny's superstitious fears of Friday the 13th.

Overall

This is a great DVD for all ages. Whether bought for young children's entertainment or parent's nostalgia. I've always loved the count since i first saw it on TV and although i don't watch it quite so often i still find time to. I would recommend this seeing as it has so many episodes. One downside is it doen't have any DVD extras, but to be honest, who needs them.

Thanks For reading

Not something i would

Chouchinciao 22.01.2008 14:40

I loved watching this when my son was small. I think your review would have been improved, though, with more general description and opinion and less episode listing. Not everyone knows the premise of the story for a start.

Very helpful review, I used to love these! Again, really like the individual ratings and summing up of the different episodes. martin
