Scooby-Doo! and WWE: Curse of the Speed Demon

2016

When Scooby and Mystery Inc. visit an off-road racing competition, it's not long before strange events start to occur. A mysterious phantom racer, known only as Inferno, is causing chaos and is determined to sabotage the race. It's up to Scooby-Doo, Shaggy and their new driving partner, The Undertaker, to save the race and solve the mystery.

Ages 7+Source checked

Why this age? PG-rated animated peril includes repeated vehicle attacks, chases, threatened drowning, an injury, and a villain's criminal plot, but the tone is comic and violence is non-graphic. This is guidance, not a safety guarantee; reading level and family context may differ.
