"This isn't over...this isn't over by a long shot!"

![]() At the behest of his former friend "Evil" Ed, Charley Brewster delves into the connection between the missing students at their school & his new neighbor, Jerry Dandridge. Coming to the realization that he's in for more than he bargained for upon discovering people locked within Jerry's house, Charley must come to terms with the fact that his neighbor may not only be responsible for the disappearances, but that he could be a creature of the night - a vampire. As someone who had been worried during this film's production, I can wholeheartedly say that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. Not only did it EXCEED expectations, but it's probably one of the better remakes I've seen, even if I've only watched once (obvi nothing against the film, vampires are just a sub-genre I like to take in sparingly). It managed to pull off several creative differences whilst retaining a structural similarity that I have a fondness for. I'd arguable compare it to Sorority Row since it's neither straight-forward, even if you know what to expect, if I'm making sense. I'm definitely in need for a rewatch soon to refresh the gaps in my memory tho, but it's a definite recommend if you haven't seen (watch the originals first, tho). |

This remake kicked so much ass. <3 I saw this one first, but still prefer the original. But either way, this was SO much fun. I remember going to an advanced screening of it (in 3D) and the whole audience was SO into it too. <3 Truly one of the best horror remakes I've seen. |

To be fair, I had planned to see the movie before the original release and then go. But my friends told me what the screening was for an hour before we were going so I never got the chance.

Yeah, they didn't even know if I remember correctly. They just had tickets to a screening and later found out it was Fright Night. I remembered I was too excited to see this to care that I'd missed the chance of seeing the original. |

I guess it's just a little for me since I grew up on the original.

Surprisingly good remake. Definitely one of the under-rated remakes and probably one of the best of this era. |

Look around you. Kind of amazing, isn't it?

I really like this movie, one of my favorite Colin Farrell performances too. Still never seen the original even though I've owned it for almost a decade.
