“Mickey’s House of Villains” is a Halloween extravaganza in the spirit of Disney’s classic holiday short-subject compilations such as the mighty revered “A Disney Halloween Treat.” Featuring a collection of classic and all novel Disney short cartoons that execute up the bulk of this direct-to-video program inspired by the “House of Mouse” enchanting television series, “Mickey’s House of Villains” is a must have for the Disney and Halloween fanatic. Now, many have complained that the packaging and title are misleading, but not so for those familiar with the “House of Mouse” piquant series format. The favorite Disney engrossing series has always been a note that brings all of Disney’s beloved characters together under the same roof, that of Mickey’s “House of Mouse” nightclub, for resplendent dining and entertainment in the effect of Disney spicy shorts. This is the second direct-to-video “feature” based on the series (the first one being “Mickey’s Magical Christmas: Snowed In at the House of Mouse”), and one of many Disney direct-to-videos to raise complaints about groundless advertising as an “all fresh” feature. So, I say again, this is a compilation of Disney short cartoons with a Halloween theme. Yes, there’s all original footage, and yes, that footage has a “Disney Villains vs. Mickey” dwelling, but it only takes dwelling AROUND the shorts and at the kill. There IS a catchy, all fresh song performed by the villains as they purchase over the club (about two cartoons away from the astronomical finale), and there is also the Mickey/Villains face off in the slay, though it is unprejudiced a like a flash, silly battle. The wraparound animation is nicely done and fun to observe. Offhand, I can’t judge of anything that was immoral in this program, and I’m a hardcore Disney fanatic. I mean, you should know going in that you’re buying a Halloween themed DVD. Anyway, this is a astounding compilation for Halloween and does a kindly job filling in for the lack of a “Disney Halloween Treat” DVD release. There are no clips from engaging features here, but you do win 8 incredible, high-quality Disney sharp shorts, both classic and recent! And, yes, though the original shorts were made for the slightly pre-House of Mouse television series, “Mickey MouseWorks,” they ARE high quality and very though-provoking. In fact, one of the best cartoons in the collection is such a short, Goofy’s “How to Haunt a House.” Here is a bustle through of the shorts offered within the “House of Mouse” themed program:
“Trick or Treat” (CLASSIC) : In this, one of my popular classic cartoons, Donald Duck is serving out tricks instead of treats when his nephews advance by on Halloween night, and Witch Hazel offers to serve everyone accept their unbiased desserts. A Halloween MUST Seek.
“Mickey’s Mechanical House” (Unique) : In this all original short, narrated storybook style by a rhyming John Cleese, Mickey decides to bewitch a modern house and goes for a very futuristic model. Things go a limited haywire though, once he damages his robot servant.

“How to Haunt a House” (Original) : In one of the most involving shorts on the disc, Goofy is immediately dispatched in order to illustrate “How to Haunt a House” in the tradition of some of Goofy’s most hilarious classic shorts. He runs into a dinky wretchedness by choosing skeptical Donald as his victim though.
“Lonesome Ghosts” (CLASSIC) : In this Halloween tradition for the Disney fan, Mickey, Donald, and Goofy reveal to be the current ghostbusters, as they win on a gang of bored spirits in a creaky venerable house in the snow.
“Dance of the Goofys” (Modern) : With the dialogue and lyric free style of “Fantasia” and “Fantasia 2000,” this is a short location to music in which Goofy portrays a fairy in a line-up of identical fairies that close-up flowers for the night. When their king is captured by an insect tormenting child, it’s up to the goofiest of the Goofy fairies to effect him!
“Donald Duck and the Gorilla” (CLASSIC) : Another one Disney fans should be quite familiar with around the Halloween season, this short features Ajax the gorilla who has escaped and is on the loose. Donald and the nephews hear the radio warning, and the kids are afraid to death. Donald takes the opportunity to play some pranks on the boys. Exiguous does he know that the ducks aren’t the only ones running wild in the house that night…
“Donald’s Halloween Panic” (Novel) : This unique short is a genuine treat, as it more specifically features Halloween (like “Trick or Treat” did) and gives us more of Donald’s incessant pranking on Huey, Louie, and Dewey! The joke is on him though, when he is inaccurate for a slasher-movie style loonatic on the loose!
“Hansel and Gretel” (Fresh) : Our final short is another “Fantasia” style toon position to music. It’s a charming rendition of Hansel and Gretel starring no less than Mickey and Minnie Mouse in the title roles!
The DVD extras aren’t anything to howl about. There is a villain themed trivia game, a clip video that can be watched with or without music, and some pictures of Disney Villains in the menu that lead to more movie clips. Better than all that is the inclusion of a “Lilo and Stitch” trailer featuring unusual animation of Ariel the Cramped Mermaid. However, with all these improbable shorts and the highly gripping wraparound material, it’s beyond me why anyone wouldn’t be thrilled to contain this Disney DVD! While I can understand folks being upset when they were expecting an consuming feature about Mickey going up against all the Disney Villains, all I can say is, halt blind-buying DVDs if you are prone to being displeased. Always check the facts with direct-to-video! For what it is, the Halloween-themed “Mickey’s House of Villains” DVD deserves the chunky five stars, not to mention annual viewings at the very least!
Buy this, either VHS or DVD, but take it! The theme is Halloween, and the setting is Mickey’s House of Mouse, with splendid modern sharp shorts, very comical and beautifully rendered, and the faded classic shorts, with Huey, Dewey and Louey getting succor at “Unca Donald” for tricking them on Halloween, with the befriend of Witch Hazel and her flying broom. Then “Lonesome Ghosts” with Donald, Goofy and Mickey as the novel “Ghost Busters” being called to the “Broken-down McShiver Mansion” to rid the house of ghosts, … Then there is one with Donald and the nephews in a enormous house during a thunderstorm when a gorilla breaks into their house…mountainous stuff. In between the obsolete classics are original and very droll shorts with spacious colors and details; I so enjoyed this I bought the DVD AND the VHS. Choose for yourself, peer it and then you will ogle what a stout tape it is and how perfect for Halloween or anytime when you want a apt ragged horror without too distinguished trauma! I absolutely LOVED it, and you will too.
