Irishchatter I swear to god, I forgot about this all these years but unfortunately, I saw a post on Facebook about it. So now, I'm not gonna forget about it throughout my adult life haha! No seriously, it really scares the crap out of me. I hated when the good people who helped the mystery gang, turned into zombies. This is considered to frighting the life out of a child.I think if I was showing this to a kid, I would suggest in showing them this when they are around 10 or 12. It would make more sense because it is scary and it does traumatize the younger audience. I can't remember what age I was when I saw this on Cartoon Network. However, I'm sure I was younger than 10 and it frightened the bayjaysus out of me whenever ìt came on! It is a good 90's film I have to say. At the same time, be aware that you might get nightmares after watching it regardless of what age you are!
zombiefan89 A must see for any Scooby fan. Capturing the essence of the thirty plus year old source material was a very hard to do, but they did it! My favorite was Frank Welker as the first, the last, and the only voice for Fred Jones in the series! With the majority of the original cast no longer with us, it's great to always have Frank voicing Fred. The opening is very touching. You can't even hear the age in his voice! He sounds just as youthful and natural as the rest of the cast! Seeing the gang separated after moving on with their lives and finally reunited was heart warming. It was reminiscent of close friends from high school, that post college, we only speak over the phone or via Facebook. The story was well written. The dialogue as well. It has some scary imagery that may give little kids nightmares. The detail on the monsters is quite something. Overall, as I said before, it's a must watch for Scooby fans. I would say age 7 to infinity!
julcltr With me being in my mid-teens, I feel a little bit silly watching the Scooby-Doo videos, but I have to admit, Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island was really the best out of all the franchise. Sure, it may be a little different, but when it comes to this one, I'm not kidding here. Its scariness does live up to the original show in my opinion. It is so creepy, you'll want to watch it again and again. Also, the ending just gives me the right to say "Surprise!" I'm definitely not going to tell you what it is though, 'cause it might get me kicked off of here. Anyway, if you like Scooby-Doo with just a touch of scariness, you'll love this. Oh, and I also recommend Scooby-Doo and the Goblin King if this is not enough.
jason06-1 Scooby Doo on Zombie Island is the best direct-to-video Scooby-Doo yetPlot: After years of uncovering phony phantoms and ghosts the gang has split up. Fred (Frank Welker) and Daphne (Mary Kay Bergman) have their own television show documenting their past mysteries. Velma (B.J. Ward) owns her own mystery book shop and Shaggy (Billy West) and Scooby-Doo (Scott Ines) work at an airport. For Daphne's birthday they get back together to try to find real monsters for her T.V. show. Along the way they meet Lena (Tara Charendoff) who tells them about the haunted house she works at on Moonscar Island and invites them over. They except and once there they meet Simone (Adrienne Barbeau). As day leads into night the gang discovers the haunting's may be true.The Good News: They say the first is the best and this one really proves that true. There is really a lot to like here and not a lot to dislike. This may surprise a lot of people, but this film is really suspenseful. The final half hour really represents this. It had me on the edge of my seat and is filled with lots of twists and turns. The animation also shines here, but I don't want to give anything away. The first ghost sighting is creepy and provides a few chills, actually all the ghost sightings prior to the climax are very unearthly and leave you with a set of chills. The idea of it suddenly becoming cold before the ghosts attack is an old one, but this proves it can still work. The addition of voodoo is thrown into the mix, but it just adds to the film instead of lowering it. The music also adds to the film and gives it a creepier edge. The all-star cast provides a ton of great voices and I have to mention that the great Adrienne Barbeau is in this. The addition of real monsters was nice and provided a lot of great opportunities. The film moves along a fast pace and it is never boring. It also has a high re watch ability factor.The Bad News: There could have been a few more ghost attacks and the jokes could have been funnier.Conclusion: If you're a Scooby fan you'll eat this up and it provides more entertainment than a regular Scooby-Doo episode so others will also find a lot to like here too.
