Reviews
St. Louis Post-Dispatch - It honors the original throughout, including a memorable nightclub scene and a surprise cameo that's a huge crowd-pleaser, while at the same time giving updates to make it fresher and better than ever., Washington Post - It stands apart from the rehash pack by accomplishing something rival remakes rarely do: It improves on the premise it has been handed, producing a modernized version of a decades-old story that's superior to its predecessor in virtually every aspect., Portland Oregonian - Fright Night joins "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" as proof that you actually can do this sort of thing correctly., USA Today - Christopher Mintz-Plasse was born to play a high school nerd., Entertainment Weekly - It ends up getting a surprising number of things right.

Additional Information
A suburban teenager realises that his new neighbour is a charismatic vampire in this remake of the 1985 horror comedy hit. After years of climbing to reach the top of the social ladder, high school senior Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin) finally rules the roost. Just as Charlie ditches his best pal 'Evil' Ed (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) and starts dating the most popular girl in their class, however, a handsome new face appears in the neighbourhood. It belongs to Charlie's new neighbour Jerry (Colin Farrell), an outwardly amiable guy with a quick smile and a sharp wit. But when Charlie sees a side of Jerry that everyone else seems to miss, he quickly becomes convinced that the nice guy act is a cover for something truly sinister. Unable to convince his charmed mother (Toni Collette) that Jerry is a genuine bloodsucker, the suspicious teen turns to Las Vegas magician Peter Vincent (David Tennant) to help exterminate the demon before he drinks the entire neighborhood dry.
