UPDATE- The FRIGHT NIGHT Remake releases Even More lackluster Photos
I really enjoy the original Fright Night. I know this phrase, “I love the original so much,” gets over used quite a bit … but in this case I really do. The dynamic between all the characters is amazing and the casting is absolutely spot-on. Tom Holland (Child’s Play) wrote and directed a perfect balance of scares and laughs while also including references and dialogue from the vampire films and t.v. shows that inspired it. Sorry Scream, you weren’t the first to do that. Unfortunately, instead of developing a new and fresh idea, Hollywood has to regurgitate old ideas that have previously been done before. Thus, Fright Night 3D is set to be released later this year. Check out Colin Farrell as Jerry Dandridge and more beyond the break.
Oh… I already miss Chris Sarandon and Stephen Geoffreys. Anoton Yelchin, slipping into the role of our hero Charlie Brewster, doesn’t look bad. I just question the choices of the rest of the cast.
Senior Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin) finally has it all going on: he’s running with the popular crowd and dating the most coveted girl in his high school. In fact, he’s so cool he’s even dissing his best friend. But trouble arrives when Jerry (Colin Farrell) moves in next door. He seems like a great guy at first, but there’s something not quite right—but everyone, including Charlie’s mom (Toni Collette), doesn’t notice. After observing some very strange activity, Charlie comes to an unmistakable conclusion: Jerry is a vampire preying on the neighborhood. Unable to convince anyone, Charlie has to find a way to get rid of the monster himself in this Craig Gillespie-helmed revamp of the comedy-horror classic.

Somewhere between growing up on a steady diet of Saturday morning trips to the local comic-book shop, collecting an unhealthy amount of action figures, and frequent viewings of Ray Harryhausen and Hammer Horror films, came forth a nerdy boy that was torn between journalism and the arts. In high school, Michael found himself writing a movie column for the school newspaper. Yet, he went on to get a BFA in Studio Art at Webster University. When not writing about films, you can still find him discussing classic horror, collecting action figures, and reading Batman. Clearly, not much has changed.
