Scooby-Doo! Camp Scare

source: Scooby-Doo! Camp Scare

Freddy returns to his childhood summer camp, Camp Little Moose, and brings along the gang. He's excited to be the new camp counsellor but finds the camp vandalized and terrorized to shut down. Despite that, a few kids do arrive and Freddy intends to be the best camp counsellor ever. This is a fun Scooby-Doo mystery adventure. It has all the elements. Freddy is good being a try-hard. It's not being anything different. It is simply good.

There is an appeal to Fred's love for his camp in this, one that we all can relate to, and one that is pretty amusing to watch in other people. We all have that beloved childhood place that we refuse to see in the eyes of reality, but rather choose to ONLY view through the lens of memory. Idealized memory. The Camp that Fred takes the gang to is like that. Everyone else can see it's gone to seed but to Fred it's Shambala. And the humor really sticks the landing best when the camp is juxtaposed between Fred's eyes and everyone else's. The appeal is great and the laughs are plentiful. The parody of, well, of camp rivalry movies from the '80s is almost too much for even your most stony faced friends. The only problem is that yet again, it comes to a "meh" conclusion. Like sooooo many others with only a few rare exceptions, the ending just doesn't match the build-up. The pay off is the yet again the journey and unfortunately not the destination.

This is some old school Scooby Doo with some darker scares. Fred's old summer camp is the destination for Scooby Doo and the gang as camp counsellors. However Camp Little Moose is empty. An old legend called the Woodsman has scared the kids away. Ranger Knudsen wants the camp closed but Fred wants to investigate further. The longer length has a bit more story and this one dials down the silliness. Apart from the Woodsman, the gang are terrorised by the Spectre and the Fishman. Somewhere along the line there is some lost treasure. Scooby-Doo! Camp Scare is bit more frightening for kids, a tad more scarier and also more fun.

Is there a story? Who cares! The story is inconsistent - not when it comes to jiggle physics -, but the jokes land a moderate amount, thus it is sufferable. PS: anyone complaining Velma being considered an "ugly one" please remind yourself that Daphne can not catch a boyfriend even if her life depends on it, so duh, what's the difference between the two? Both gets jiggle physics, so stop comlaining!

While this 2010 animated Scooby-Doo movie does follow the very same blueprint that every other Scooby-Doo movie is made by, then it turns out that "Scooby-Doo! Camp Scare" is actually enjoyable. I suppose it is the atmosphere to the storyline that worked out so well. At least it made it more unique and interesting for me. The art style is classic Scooby-Doo, so you know what you are getting. Smooth animations and a very likeable drawing style. So thumbs up for that particular familiarity. Well, essentially you know exactly what you are getting every time you sit down to watch a Scooby-Doo animated movie. But hey, isn't that part of that special Scooby-Doo charm? What is also great about these animated Scooby-Doo features is the returning voice actors, with the likes of Frank Welker, Mindy Cohn, Matthew Lillard and Grey Griffin, And as a special treat, then "Scooby-Doo! Camp Scare" also has Mark Hamill on the cast list. If you are a fan of the Scooby-Doo franchise, then the 2010 animated movie "Scooby-Doo! Camp Scare" is definitely one that you will like.

Finally! I have been waiting for an amazing Scooby movie and I got it! This movie was terrific, not perfect, but was fun. The plot of the movie is interesting when the camp's stories start coming to life to scare the gang and campers away. The characters fit well with the story and a lot of the scenes made me laugh. There were actual higher stakes in this one that made me excited for what would happen next. It was surprisingly a pretty intense movie. I loved how the bad guy shocked me. I did not see it coming. The only thing I disliked was how they tried to sexualize the women. It was very strange for a Scooby movie. Overall, I loved it and highly recommend it. It's definitely worth your time.

Scooby Doo movies always proves that they are the best. It was like a cult horror flick. I really loved it

A great love letter to Friday the 13th by including a lot of the slasher into this Scooby-Doo animation film. If you're a horror fan or a Friday the 13th fan then I highly recommend checking this out.

I am a die-hard fan of Scooby Doo, having grown up with the original, so I have been hesitant to watch any of the new stuff, but....after having seen Camp Scare bc of my kids, I have to say that I loved it! They maintained the flavor of the original, with the music, the humor, and the characters. It's just an updated version. The story was great too. Writing done well, tight plot, suspenseful. As for the swimsuits on Daphne and Velma, I have to say that i thought they were tasteful. Since we hardly ever saw the gang in clothing other than what they always wore, it was refreshing to see them in something different. And I loved that they gave Velma some curves. I always hated that they drew her as so stocky and shapeless. Im guessing that they wanted us to focus on her brains, and to draw a character more true to life, which is fine, but I always felt like she kinda got shortchanged. I did kinda take issue with making Daphne somewhat of an airhead: squealing with delight that someone liked Velma while totally missing the insult that the ranger gave her. Also, putting her in Daisy Dukes was a bit much: regular shorts would have been fine, and that's just because we had already seen some skin when she wore the bikini. Really? Was it necessary to see more? Other than that, i thought she was a kick- ass chick: she sacrificed her scuba tank to get rid of the Fishman while risking drowning and she was a lot smarter than in older series. I got a kick out of finding out that Mark Hamill did the voices of Deacon, Babyface Boretti, and the old storekeeper. Cracked me up! I had no idea he was that talented in voiceovers. I recommend this for Scooby fans all over. The true spirit of Scooby Doo is maintained, and you will enjoy it a lot!!
