to get the whole family into the Halloween spirit.The only problem is most frightful films really aren’t for kids, and the ones that are often fall flat.

While the hand-drawn animation and slapstick high jinks of the original Hanna-Barbera cartoon are all there, make no mistake: There are some creepy moments in this movie. Between scary zombie elements and a spooky Voodoo doll scene, this is the perfect film to get your kids into the Halloween spirit.

comedy, plenty of scares and creepy imagery still get a jump out of first-time watchers young and old
