Scared Shrekless

Shrek challenges the cast of regulars -- with Eddie Murphy replaced by Dean Edwards as the voice of Donkey -- to a competition at telling scary stories for Hallowe'en. But for purposes of this TV special, they have to hold the competition in Lord Farquaad's ruined and spooky castle.

There are a couple of gags repeated from the feature movie, and Mike Myers doesn't seem to be using the exactly the same voice, but for a half-hour TV special, it's certainly amusing. The scariness of the stories seems to be muted for appropriateness of a TV audience. This seems a bit odd to me, considering some of the scatological gags of the original movie, but it's fun.

This short animation is about Shrek and his friends having a competition to see who can tell the scariest story.

"Scared Shrekless" is a fun animation. It is so colourful and fun. It is not easy to make a scary enough but not too scary animation for kids. Everything about "Scared Shrekless" is so adorable. The characters are cute, and the haunted house is spooky in a fun way. The gingerbread man sub-story is scary and fun at the same time. It sounds crazy, but the story that the gingerbread man tells is scary, and yet the gingerbread man and women are so adorable and colourful that it makes the story entertaining and not so scary.

Its Halloween time again so Shrek and the gang celebrate it by going to lord farquaad's supposedly haunted castle to tell scary stories to each other, The last one standing without getting scared wins!

Yeah, This was a pretty fun watch with funny classic horror movie homages, and great callbacks to the old movies (especially Shrek 1), The whole voice cast reprised their roles which really adds to the authentic Shrek feel we all know and love (Except Eddie Murphy, But still tho Dean Edwards does such a good Eddie Murphy impression, I didn't even notice someone replaced him), The animation is pretty fantastic too, On par with the movie's animation quality.

My favorite story was the first one with Gingy and his girlfriend, I even remember watching it as a kid and being actually scared of it.. so that's something I guess.

I can understand how someone who doesn't really care about the Shrek franchise can pass this one out but if you're a Shrek fan, This is one of these shorts that you shouldn't miss, Really enjoyed this one.

Surprisingly hilarious Halloween special with the first episode, a brilliant Bride of Frankenstein parody, particularly outstanding.

After the average Christmas special the writers really upped the ante and came up with some gruesomely funny ideas and jokes, using the by now all too well-known Shrek characters remarkably well.

The result's an entertaining half-hour roller-coaster with only the middle section lagging.

Since the first two installments, Shrek has never been this funny. Aaaargh!!!

7 out of 10 haunted castles

A surprisingly funny and well made movie. This movie is a very basic story essentially shrek just does a bet that involves each of the main characters telling a story to scare each other. The comedy that comes out of the stories are surprisingly funny and witty for any age and do supply a good amount of enjoyment in its 30 minute run time there is also a lot of cute callbacks and like shrek the halls shrek is written in a very believable way that makes lots of sense for his character. Unlike shrek the halls all the other characters act in a very believable way And the movie is much more funnier. This is a fun Halloween movie where you get exactly what you'd hope for and a good time.
