Dancing to Michael Jackson's "Thriller", the
undead were not there to eat human brains, but to take advantage
of the world's press gathered a day ahead of the start of the
Cannes Film Festival to publicize a movie, "Hotel Transylvania
3: A Monster Vacation".
The animated comedy follows the adventures of a part-monster,
part-human family, on a cruise holiday.
Director Genndy Tartakovsky said he had decided the second
installment of the Sony Pictures franchise would be the last,
but was inspired to make a third after his in-laws invited his
family on a cruise holiday.
"Who doesn't want to be on a ship with their in-laws for a
week?" he joked with reporters.
"But as I got on the boat I realized: 'Hey, it's all about
family, and what a great venue for our monster family.'"
The Cannes Film Festival runs from May 8 to May 19.
