Mickey's House of Villains

Mickey's House of Villains is a direct-to-video film, based on House of Mouse, starring Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Minnie Mouse, Goofy, Daisy Duck, and characters and villains from past Disney movies. It was released on both VHS and DVD by Walt Disney Home Entertainment on September 3, 2002. It is not to be confused with the episode "Pete's House of Villains", in which Mickey lets Pete run the show.

While the film is available only in a cropped full screen format on VHS and DVD releases, the original HD widescreen version of the film is available on current television broadcasts as well as iTunes WEB-DL.

Plot
It is Halloween night at the House of Mouse, and a lot of villains are showing up. Jafar has a trick in store for the usual heroes of the House, but the villains have to wait until midnight for him to unleash it. After a series of cartoons, Jafar, along with his new henchmen Captain Hook, Cruella De Vil, Ursula and Hades, takes over the house with a musical number "It's Our House Now!" All the other villains soon join Jafar's plan. The heroes, princesses and other Disney characters are trapped in the kitchen while Mickey and several others are thrown out into the street. They witness the House's name being changed to the House of Villains.

Mickey, Donald, Goofy and Minnie try to take their House back, but Chernabog stops them from entering the building. After another two cartoons, Mickey dresses in his sorcerer outfit from Fantasia (and Fantasia 2000) and challenges Jafar to a magical duel using fireballs. Just when Mickey's sorcerer hat is knocked off, Aladdin escapes from the kitchen, flying on the Magic Carpet and gives Daisy Duck the magical lamp. Daisy hands it to Mickey who uses the lamp to suck Jafar into it. The rest of the villains run away and the House of Mouse is once again restored.

Cartoons
Like the show, the film shows several Disney cartoons. In fact, these shorts make up more of the movie than the actual plot with the villains. However, all their title cards are edited out. Among them, three of the shorts are classic ones: The other five shorts were all originally broadcast on Mickey Mouse Works in 1999.
 * Trick or Treat (1952)
 * Lonesome Ghosts (1937)
 * Donald Duck and the Gorilla (1944)
 * Mickey's Mechanical House
 * How to Haunt a House
 * Dance of the Goofys
 * Donald's Halloween Scare
 * Hansel and Gretel

Trivia

 * Despite appearing on the DVD cover's backside and in the short "Mickey's Mechanical House", Pluto does not make an appearance in the film itself. Also, despite being used in the film's promotional trailers (via archive footage from the original Peter Pan film), Mr. Smee only appears for a split-second in the final film.
 * A trailer for Kingdom Hearts was shown after the special during its first broadcast, and is also on the DVD.
 * Some scenes from the beginning of the film were later used in the episode "House Ghosts".
 * When Mickey was about to battle Jafar in his wizard attire there is a direct reference to the dinosaur section of Rite of Spring from Fantasia. When Mickey appears on stage and all of the villains gradually turn their heads towards him is very similar to when the Tyrannosaurus Rex appears and all of the other dinosaurs face him. Jafar's defeat at the end is similar to that of Aladdin, where he gets sucked into the lamp.
 * Strangely, some of the characters involved in the takeover of the House aren't actually villains at all, most notably Tick-Tock (a neutral character who spent all of his screentime trying to eat Captain Hook) and the Haunted Mansion ghosts (who couldn't honestly be considered villains by any stretch, apart from Constance Hatchaway, who wasn't yet a character). Iago also was a villain, but reformed before this film in The Return of Jafar.
 * Should be noted, Anastasia Tremaine, another reformed character, is also shown as a villain. That's because Cinderella III: A Twist in Time was released five years after House of Villains and thus, in fact, she was still a villain at the time.
 * This is the 1st time Donald made the Beast mad. The 2nd time is the Mickey Mouse episode "The Adorable Couple" for bumping into him while dancing with Belle.
