Line 21:
=== This film provides examples of the following [[Tropes]]: ===
* [[Agent Scully]]: Fred takes his sweet time accepting the possibility that ''real'' zombies and ghosts are pursuing them.
* [[Anti -Villain]]: {{spoiler|Simone and Lena}}. Both [[Sliding Scale of Anti -Villains|Type II]].
* [[Be Careful What You Wish For]]: {{spoiler|Simone and her servant Lena prayed to cat gods for the power to protect their island from pirates. The gods granted them such power, but also cursed them to turn into [[Catgirl|Cat Girls]] during the harvest moon}}.
** One could also argue that Scooby and the gang suffered this trope after Daphne expressed desires to meet real monsters.
* [[Big Damn Movie]]
* [[Big Eater]]: Scooby and Shaggy, duh.
* [[Casting Gag]]: Possibly the casting of Adrienne Barbeau ( {{spoiler|Catwoman}} from ''[[Batman: theThe Animated Series (Animation)|Batman the Animated Series]]'') as Simone Lenoir.
* [[Cats Are Mean]]: Scooby has an ongoing rivalry with Simone's cats. {{spoiler|Also, Simone and Lena are really [[Catgirl|Cat Girls]] who gain immortality by stealing visitors' souls}}.
** [[The Stinger]] shows that Scooby and Simone's cats eventually made peace.
Line 37:
* [[Death Equals Redemption]]: Morgan Moonscar and his fellow pirates and arguably the plantations owners (since it was a 'plantation') {{spoiler|come back as zombies and successfully manage to hold off the villains until long enough for the spell to be broken}}
* [[Deconstruction]]: There are some elements of this in the film.
* [[Dolled -Up Installment]]: The movie was adapted from the story of an unmade episode of ''[[Swat Kats (Animation)|SWAT Kats: The Radical Squadron]]''.
* [[Expy]]: In one of the direct to TV animated videos made several years later, ''Pirates Ahoy'', they blatantly reused the design for Captain Moonscar for their main pirate monster.
* [[Family -Unfriendly Death]]: The death of the {{spoiler|cat people}}. Also the death of the former inhabitants of Moonscar Island. Being forced to go into a lagoon where alligators just wait for their meal? Charming.
* [[Family -Unfriendly Violence]]: In ''Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island'' there are a few examples of this, one zombie has his head ripped off and two get cut in half.
** Earlier than that, the guy in the monster suit in the intro gives Fred a nasty gash on his back.
* [[Foreshadowing]]: ''Zombie Island'' has several signs linking to the end of the mystery, including one in one of the chase sequences, where {{spoiler|a Zombie gives Shaggy a vine to pull Scooby out, at first, it looks like just a gag involving the whole "monster helps them to save themselves", but it foreshadows that the Zombies are not as evil as they're made out to be}}.
