Hotel Transylvania 2
This animated sequel follows Dracula trying to bring out his half-vampire grandson's monster side, with plenty of slapstick humor and a warm message about family and acceptance. The scares are mostly played for laughs, but they do ramp up toward the climax with a more intense action sequence involving large demon bats.
Most comfortable for children around 6 and up, with younger or more sensitive kids better watched alongside a grown-up.

The wedding sequence features a sentient cake that screams when cut; it is played entirely for laughs but may catch very young viewers off guard.
Dracula throws young Dennis from a tall tower hoping he will sprout wings; the drop looks genuinely dangerous before Dracula swoops in to catch him.
The friends accidentally set their camp on fire and a car explodes during their slapstick antics.
