Garfield in Disguise (1985 TV Short)
6/10
Garfield and Odie as pirates

Warning: Spoilers
"Garfield in Disguise" is a 24-minute television short movie from 30 years ago and is also known as "Farfield's Halloween Adventure". The 1980s are not particularly known for great cartoons or short films, so these Garfield movies may be among the best there is. Awards bodies seem to agree as this one here won an Emmy back then. Garfield and Odie decide to go out trick-or-treating and basically meet ghosts and spooky creatures during the entire movie. These poor two. However, there is a happy ending when, for whatever reason, our duo is stranded on a remote island, but manages to get two big bags full of candy. Still, the last scene shows that Garfield has enough of being a pirate for a while. Maybe until next Halloween. I think Lorenzo Music is really great as usual and his voice was perfect for Garfield. Still, I must say that I cannot like this little movie as much as I love the comics. Nonetheless, this was a good, occasionally spooky, watch and I recommend it with Halloween 2015 coming up.
