This animated monster mash-up from director Genndy Tartakovsky (writer behind Dexter’s Laboratory and Samurai Jack) finds Dracula (Adam Sandler) running an exclusive getaway resort for the paranormal set with assistance from his good buddy Frankenstein (Kevin James). Business and life get upended, though, when a human boy (Andy Samberg) wanders into the normally human-free oasis and begins to woo Dracula’s daughter (Selena Gomez). Will these monstrous comedic voices scare up some much-needed box office success? Now in theaters. (PG) Not screened for review.
