SCOOBY-DOO ON ZOMBIE ISLAND (Video Release USA 1998)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.0|5.0 Starsìììì

Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island—better than either Scooby-Doo (2002 release) or Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed (2004 release)—gets the entertainment job done. The movie faithfully interprets the original intent of the Scooby-Doo stories with its animation format, just right suspense, and interplay between characters. The film can entertain the adult and the child equally well. Thank you to the three directors who shared development of the final product: Hiroshi Aoyama, Kazumi Fukushima, and Jim Stenstrum.
