Scooby Doo Has Never Looked So Gritty

Published

on

As a kid, I loved watching Scooby Doo. It was a great way to enjoy something based on horror and mystery while not being too frightening for a 4-year old.

Over the past several years, there’s been this trend of rebooting a title with a really gritty and serious tone. Things like Batman and Transformers are examples of cartoony titles that went down some really dark paths.

And now Jeff Zoet Visuals is imagining a world where Scooby Doo gets that same treatment and has to take on a ton of zombies! In fact, he took some pictures of the “Mystery Incorporated” gang to show what they would look like in this apocalyptic setting.

To be 100% clear, this is not officially happening. Jeff Zoet is a freelance artist, photographer, editor, cinematographer, and more, who put this together as part of a photo shoot, nothing more. However, after seeing the look that he’s got going on, I’d be all for a studio giving him some money and letting him go hog wild with this concept!

Dead Mail SXSW Dead Mail interview

One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.

Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”

In the SXSW 2024 horror film…

“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.

“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”

Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
