Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders

Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders follows Mystery Inc. into the desert, where a flying saucer forces their vehicle off the road near a remote tracking station. Stranded in a small desert town, the gang finds the area crowded with UFO enthusiasts, secretive scientists and unfriendly visitors from space. Shaggy and Scooby are beamed aboard a spacecraft, and the mystery draws the group from a government research facility into a network of underground caverns beneath the town. The film mixes science fiction with the series' usual comic mystery, and adds a romance for Shaggy and Scooby amid the alien activity.

Jim Stenstrum directed this 2000 release, the third of the four Scooby-Doo animated features he made between 1998 and 2001, following Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island and Scooby-Doo! and the Witch's Ghost. Davis Doi and Lance Falk wrote the screenplay, with Doi also producing for Hanna-Barbera Productions. The voice cast includes Scott Innes as Scooby-Doo and Shaggy, Mary Kay Bergman as Daphne, B.J. Ward as Velma, Frank Welker as Fred, and Candi Milo and Neil Ross in supporting roles.
