I loved the original and thought that this was going to be the typical remake. It definitely surpassed my expecatations of what the movie was going to be. This is a must see!...

I haven't seen a really good movie in a long time, but this broke that record. It was a great movie. The 3D effects were so much better than others. The cast was perfect! The movie kept you...

Fright Night isn't quite a classic vampire movie, but it's refreshingly straightforward and self-deprecating. Read full review

The remake isn't openly nostalgic. In a sense, this is another sexy vampire movie. But Farrell does something special with the sexuality: It's simultaneously omnivorous, dangerous, and a hoot. Read full review

As in the earlier film, this one dances always at the edge of comedy. It especially has fun with the Rules of Vampire Behavior. Read full review

Fright is way too quick on its feet to be slowed by clichés. David Tennant seizes McDowall's role as Peter Vincent, now a Criss Angel-style clown vampire slayer. Christopher Mintz-Plasse was born to play a high school nerd. Read full review
