Scooby-Doo On Zombie Island is the first of a series of made-for-DVD animated movies based on the long-running Scooby-Doo series. It was released on DVD February 20, 1998. It made its TV premiere on Cartoon Network shortly after. This and all subsequent Scooby-Doo animated features was made by Warner Bros. Animation (its parent company, Time-Warner, owns the Hanna-Barbera library and rights to the characters).
In this movie, the gang has since split up to pursue individual careers--Daphne is a reporter with Fred as her cameraman, Velma is working at a book store, and Shaggy and Scooby are working airport security. Fred stages a reunion in Louisiana with a tricked-out Mystery Machine. There, the gang meets Lena Dupree, a young girl who says her home is haunted by Morgan Moonscar, the Pirate. After some atypical investigating and running about the plantation of Simone Lenoir, the gang runs into a gang of zombies. But unlike the faux spooks from previous shows, these zombies are real. They are friendly zombies, as it is learned that Lena, Lenoir and gardener Jacques are werecats who are draining the zombies' essences to maintain their own immortality.
