I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

This short is so FRIGHTNINGLY FUNNY! The stories are both creepy and hilarious(mostly hilarious)! I had watched this short about 10 times before I learned that Eddie Murphy doesn't voice Donkey! Gingerbread's story about him and a zombie like wife is funny! But in the end, Gingerbread didn't scare anyone and went running off himself! Donkey and Puss tried scaring the other off in the same setting several times! In the end, Donkey wins! They kept trying to scare each other off! Shrek's story is by far the creepiest/funniest! He sent Pinocchio running through a wood door! Overall, I'd give Scared Shrekless a 10/10!

Scared Shrekless is a brilliant Halloween special, of the two Dreamworks specials(the other being the Monsters vs Aliens one) this is the better one of the two. Gorgeously animated(the backgrounds are always colourful yet wonderfully atmospheric at times too) with creepy music, hilarious, witty writing, inspired storytelling, all our favourite characters at the top of their game(especially Puss and Gingerbread) and great voice acting(even with the replacement of Eddie Murphy for Donkey's voice). The special is made up of three parodies, the best being the parody of Bride of Frankenstein with Gingerbread, hysterically funny, full of creepy atmosphere and often cute. Shrek's Exorcist parody was also amusing and effective in its creepiness, if not quite as terrifying as the real thing(understandably). Puss and Donkey's Psycho parody was good, it was funny with great voice work and storytelling, only let down by a couple of Donkey's comic interruptions, occasionally coming across as forced. Overall though, Scared Shrekless is brilliant, if you love the first two films(I do) or love horror(the more I see the more I highly appreciate it) you will love it. 9/10 Bethany Cox

I marvel at how much Dreamworks has exploited their Shrek franchise. I mean, how many movies, specials and short films can they make until enough is enough? While I clearly am worried about the future of the series, I must admit that despite everything, "Scared Shrekless" clearly has gorgeous CGI. So, despite being a short and having a substitute voice for Fiona, it is still amazingly nice to look at and features a lot of what made the other films enjoyable.The episode is set at Halloween. Many of the old storybook characters come to Shrek's house to celebrate and tell scary stories. The Gingerbread Man tells a story about his mate--how he and a crazed baker made what SEEMED like the perfect partner. But, things go awry and the story is frighteningly cute. Then, Puss tells a story that is clearly inspired by "Psycho". But, again and again, Donkey keeps interrupting the story--making a mess of it and forcing Puss to tell what REALLY happened. Finally, Shrek tells a story he says is a cute version of "The Exorcist".All in all, I was surprised that I enjoyed this film as much as I did. All three stories were very enjoyable and worth seeing...surprise! Nice, light viewing for the entire family.

Scared Shrekless was the perfect Halloween short movie for those of us who are faithful Shrek fans. It was well written and contains all of my Shrek favorites. It is a compilation of 3 Halloween stories from each characters point of view. The parts with the 3 Little Pigs and with the Gingerbread Man are especially funny. Great spooky little film. A must see for fall. The colors and animation quality in the film are great as well. It is better on TV in HD. The kids and myself love Scared Shrekless and Monsters vs Aliens Mutant Pumkins, but won't be buying the DVD. We are waiting for them to make them on Bluray. Most movie buffs these days have hi def TV's and need hi def discs.
