Who directed the animated film Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island?

Jim Stenstrum directed the animated film Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island.

Released in 1998, Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island was directed by Jim Stenstrum and written by Glenn Leopold. The story reunites the Mystery, Inc. team on Moonscar Island, where they investigate a community surrounded by legends of pirates, zombies, and supernatural curses. Unlike the standard formula of the original television series, the film presents genuine supernatural forces rather than simply unmasking ordinary criminals.

The production became notable for its darker atmosphere, serialized feature-length structure, and willingness to change expectations about Scooby-Doo mysteries. It was released directly to video and is widely regarded as one of the franchise’s most influential animated films.

Stenstrum is sometimes confused with Joe Sichta, who directed other major direct-to-video Scooby-Doo projects, including Scooby-Doo and the Cyber Chase. The voice cast included Scott Innes as Scooby-Doo and Shaggy, Mary Kay Bergman as Daphne, B.J. Ward as Velma, and Frank Welker as Fred.
