History Awesome / ScoobyDooOnZombieIsland

* A meta-example, this movie revitalized the entire Scooby-Doo franchise after years of stagnation, and over 20 years later, it's still considered the best and least divisive output of the entire franchise.

* Snakebite Scruggs' BigDamnHeroes moment when he uses a hook to clamp shut the moth of an alligator attacking Shaggy and Scooby.

** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDFouH2v8UM The Ghost is Here]]" is a great track for the montage while "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2hztmQ0E3w It's Terror Time]]" is some great Horror Punk for the zombie chase scene. You absolutely ''cannot'' go through listening to them without getting sucked in and rocking out. Helps that they're catchy and don't get old. In fact, they get better the more you listen to them.

* In hindsight, we find out Beau was a MasterActor. His {{Jerkass} persona was an act to keep people from getting close to him while he investigated the disappearances; he drops it when Velma laments that the police won't believe them, revealing that he is a cop. We find out that he's actually a SouthernGentleman NiceGuy who addresses Velma and Daphne as "Ma'am".

* Even when seeing that Simone and Lena have a voodoo doll of him, he shouts YouLeaveHimAlone about Daphne, Velma, and Fred when the women incapacitate them. He then attempts to tackle the duo. It fails but points given for him being brave.

* Scooby blinding Jacques by spraying [[ChekhovsGun hot pepper juice]] in his eyes.
* Daphne and Velma using [[HoistByHisOwnPetard the Voodoo dolls to control Simone and Lena]].

* [[spoiler:After you learn that they're the good guys, any scene in which the Zombies attack the three cat-people count as this. Special props to the fact that most of the time, it's specifically done when Scooby and Shaggy were in trouble, such as when Simone and Lena had grabbed the two and began to drain them of their life; the Confederate soldiers jump them, forcing them to release their hold on Shaggy and Scooby, who quickly revert to normal. The zombies literally have little-to-no chance of actually hurting the villains, but they still care enough to try and save others from their terrible fate.]]
* The flashback scene that opens the movie, not only for being a well done movie opener but also for being the first Scooby-Doo movie to actually make the gang's job exciting and even dangerous.
* There's also some genuinely great music to rock out to. Particularly of the {{UsefulNotes/Punk}} variety.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDFouH2v8UM The Ghost is Here]] is a great track for the montage while [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2hztmQ0E3w It's Terror Time]] is some great Horror Punk for the zombie chase scene.

** The gang's rapid-fire hoax busting during "The Ghost Is Here" makes that sequence an in-Verse example as well. Just seeing the gang take down four fakers in one song both reminded old-timers of all their past favorites, and taught a whole new generation of Scooby fans everything they needed to know about how the original series had worked.

* How about Daphne and Velma using [[HoistByHisOwnPetard the Voodoo dolls to control Simone and Lena?]]

* Velma's observation when midnight has passed and [[spoiler: Simone's group have failed to drain the gang's life force, causing the three to crumbly to dust]].

* In a meta sense, the fact that this film's critical acclaim resurrected the Scooby-Doo franchise.

For as dark as the film is, there are some legitamate moments of awesome. Many come after TheReveal.
