Scooby-Doo und die Gespensterinsel

I loved this movie when I was a kid and just rewatched it on Netflix as an adult and still found it entertaining. There was a good balance between paying homages to the original show and adding exciting and new twists for a different generation of kids. I didn't have a problem with the voice cast like some people on here. It's unrealistic to think that the whole OG cast will reprise their roles. True fans of Scooby-Doo will appreciate this movie

I have been feeling so nostaglic this month and so I figured I would watch one of my favourite Scooby Doo movies from my childhood that I adored and it still lives up to my expections even since this movie was from 1998. I definitley recommend this movie if your an adult and you loved Scooby Doo as a kid or if you have childern and you wanted to introduce them to it. Such amazing animation and will always be one of my top favourites of the Scooby Doo movies.

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.

This movie went to a lot more darker places than any other Scooby Doo films trust me I've watched nearly all of them. I would liken the realism and horror in this film to the 2010 show Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated, which took the best elements of the campy comedy and romance in the Scooby Doo franchise while adding it's own unique realism and continuous chronological story.

This film is only 90-100 minutes long and despite that we have the same realism and the well thought-out story in the 1000+ minute long 2010 show. Check out Scooby Doo on Zombie Island it scared me as a kid and it's still entertaining as an adult.

Out of all the Scooby movies that have been made over the years (including the two live action ones), Zombie Island is by far the best; the characters are older, the plot line is much more sophisticated than previous attempts, is even a little scary, and by far LOOKS the best (even though it was a direct-to-video movie, it has the quality of a major motion picture, a big plus). Although Scooby and Shaggy haven't changed much, Fred, Velma, and especially Daphne were revamped - Velma is still calculating, but suspicious to a fault; Fred takes shotgun to Daphne as the leader, and "is in denial," about supernatural things; Daphne is no longer just the pretty face of the group, she's also intelligent, brave, completely independent, and the undisputed leader. Had Hanna Barbera and Warner Bros. actually kept up with this kind of material, Scooby would still be alive and kicking more so than it is; but, alas, they copped out for the "bad guy wearing a mask" routine, reverting the characters back to their original archetypes. Maybe someday someone will recreate the show using the characters and basic events, but for now, Zombie Island remains the absolute pinnacle of the Scooby World.
