There was also a second volume, MORE SILLY SCARIES. At an hour each, both of these could have fit onto the DVD, but they opted to just include the first volume on the disk.)

It is a neat haunted forest, ghost, goblins cartoon and wish I could get a legit copy on DVD somewhere. Being PD you can download it at Prelinger Archives. Does anyone know if this cartoon has been released on DVD? Eric

Minnie the Moocher is a great one - look for copies on eBay that come from the Republic Laser disc releases. However, the big box sets of these had issues of their own - too much sharpening and edge enhancement. Still, the 2 big laser box sets had almost ALL the Boops know to still exist between them and they were unedited. SAM33

Interesting that Warners did a laser disc collection of them and it's too bad Warners didn't put spooky toons as extras on the Masters of Horror and Val Lewton sets.

(It was also offered on laser but, to date, has yet to see a DVD release.) Done with the participation of the late Richard Fleischer (the director is Max's son), this was around the same time the restored cartoons were being shown on Saturday mornings on AMC (back when AMC was still cool). So far, these are as good as it gets for Boopdom.

Mar 28 07 3:01 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I was able to find the Betty Boop "Minnie The Moocher" cartoon on a couple different DVDs. I purchased one on Echo Bridge (the company that bought Platinum) and it is on their Betty Boop Vol. 2 - 11 Classic Cartoons disc. I haven't looked at it yet to compare the quality to what I downloaded at Prelinger. Eric

Not to disparage, but wasn't this derived from the Republic "restoration" which was one of the notorious instances of early clean-up software barreling through and yanking detail as well as flaws?
