I've always loved Scooby-doo & the gang & like most grew up watching it from little & some of the best Scooby-doo movies ever are the Classic's "Zombie Island" & "The Witches Ghost" from the 90's but there's been plenty of good one's but those two are proper Classic's of the Scooby-doo franchise & now definitely "Camp Scare" is one of the "New" best Scooby-doo films out there!!!
What i loved about "Camp Scare" is the beautiful animation & the Awesome 1980's Camp Site Slasher vibe & atmosphere it has, felt like "Friday the 13th" & "The Burning" in it's look & feel & that is just so Awesome to take that fun Slasher tone & put our Mystery gang right in the middle of it.
The Camp site & Cabin setting with the forests all around & the big beautiful lake is all done beautifully & looks amazing, stunning animation & the film is simply alot of summertime fun.
Fred Jones brings the gang to his old Camp site where he was a Camp Councillor for kids who go to summer camp but it's very run down now & time hasn't been good to the place & since Fred's fun days there's been a scary woodsman type of monster tormenting the land & carries a big axe!!! This is a menacing creature that has become a Mythical figure of the place & the source of many Camp fire spooky tales but who is he? & is he really real? & why does he stalk to area? Plenty of questions in this fun little Horror Mystery.
There's other characters that come into it including a bunch of misfit kids who have been dropped off for summer camp & who Fred & the gang are looking after & some fun voice work from the legendary MARK HAMILL!!!! This is definitely one of the best of the latest Scooby-doo films, it has such a fun summertime mood & plays out like a watered-down 80's Slasher flick for kids & i loved it for that.
Great fun & stunning animation.
