Shrek, fais-moi peur!

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.

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.

Scared Shrekless (2010) is a short film in which Shrek's friends take it in turns telling him scary stories in an effort to frighten the big fella and prove that ogres can be terrified too. Leading the charge is Donkey (surprisingly not voiced by Eddie Murphy), who instigates the whole ordeal, and he's joined by Puss in Boots, Gingerbread Man, Pinocchio, The Three Little Pigs and The Big Bad Wolf. Only the first three get to actually tell a tale because Shrek himself chimes in with a story that just so happens to have the world's best pun as a title. The three stories are all enjoyable in their own right, as is the framing device. There are several entertaining, if ham-fisted, references to previous movies in the series, as well as to other films and to the fairytales that lend the franchise its characters. It's really fun, actually, and is varied enough to never feel stale. It's a pacy, well-animated affair that's much better than I was expecting it to be.

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.

Scared Shrekless is a brilliant Halloween special, of the two Dreamworks specials(the other being the Monsters vs Aliens one) this is the better one of the two. Gorgeously animated(the backgrounds are always colourful yet wonderfully atmospheric at times too) with creepy music, hilarious, witty writing, inspired storytelling, all our favourite characters at the top of their game(especially Puss and Gingerbread) and great voice acting(even with the replacement of Eddie Murphy for Donkey's voice). The special is made up of three parodies, the best being the parody of Bride of Frankenstein with Gingerbread, hysterically funny, full of creepy atmosphere and often cute. Shrek's Exorcist parody was also amusing and effective in its creepiness, if not quite as terrifying as the real thing(understandably). Puss and Donkey's Psycho parody was good, it was funny with great voice work and storytelling, only let down by a couple of Donkey's comic interruptions, occasionally coming across as forced. Overall though, Scared Shrekless is brilliant, if you love the first two films(I do) or love horror(the more I see the more I highly appreciate it) you will love it. 9/10 Bethany Cox
