Drak Pack, the review

The other day I was browsing Amazon.com for that one "extra" item that would put me over the top and get me "free" shipping when what do my wondrous eyes see… why the "Drak Pack", of course!

I hadn't seen this sweet little cartoon in ions, but the minute I saw a photo of the main characters, I knew I had to see if the show was on YouTube.com to verify that it was indeed the same show I remembered watching as a child.

And sure enough, it was!

So, being the Halloween film fanatic that I am… I ordered it!

It's an 80s cartoon about three teenage boys who team up to rid the world of evil doers and monsters. And since they are descendants of Dracula, Frankenstein's monster, and a werewolf, they have the ability to transform into their ancestral counterparts; thus giving them a secret identity.



The teens live in a somewhat haunted mansion by day, and a bat lair with high tech gadgets by night, or anytime they need to call upon their superpowers. One of the boys is known as Drak; Drak can change into a vampire, a bat, or a patch of fog. The biggest boy is Frankie; and he can use brute force thanks to his strength. The smallest boy is Howler; Howler can use his lungs and breath to create strong winds.

They also even have a multi-functioning car named Drakster. The Drakster can help them travel by land, by air, or by sea… all with the turn of a dial.




In some ways the cartoon reminds me of Scooby Doo meets the Monster Squad. It's a simple, entertaining cartoon for kids of all ages. And there's absolutely nothing scary about it. It's just pure fun.

If you haven't heard of the cartoon before, check out the first episode of "Drak Pack" on YouTube, then go ahead and buy the cartoon from Amazon as it's only $12!

Disclaimer: The reviewer purchased a copy of this DVD to review.
