Fright Night 2011 Movie Review
If you like remakes then Fright Night [2011] stays somewhat true to the original with the basically the same characters and plot line of the original but in the original I feel that Jerry Dandridge played by Collin Ferrell should have been the same when he sees Amy as a past love. Also i dont feel that it should have been done in Vegas itshould have stuck with a more quiet suburb feel. This is a classic story of a horny teenage boy living next to a vampire. Anton Yelchin plays Charley,who was a nerd but decides he wants to become a popular high schooler living in a suburb of Las Vegas who happens to be dating Amy (Imogen Poots), the hottest girl in school (again not true to original Amy wasnt hottest girl in school) When Ed (Evil), Charley's nerdy childhood friend (Christopher Mintz-Plasse I had only seen him as McLovin) warns him that kids have gone missing and that a vampiremy be the cause, Charley shrugs it off. However once Charley learns the horrible truth he is tasked with the same nightmare Ed was unable to solve, convincing others that "Jerry the vampire" is murdering people. In order to protect his family and girlfriend from Jerry,
played by Colin Farrell, Charley enlists the help of Vegas show runner Peter Vincent, played by the popular David Tennant( of the TV series Doctor Who.) I do feel that this character should have stuck to the
original storyline as a host of a TV show. Peter Vincent is a drunk ego maniac who is an expert on everything vampire. Unfortunately Peter is also a bit of a chicken when it comes to actually facing the undead
bloodsuckers due to his past experience with vampires.
It's a well done modernization of the tale, making some of the elements of the previous iteration a bit more realistic. There are laughs and references to Twilight. As for the 3D, I recommend seeing Fright Night in 3D. The blood splattering and the glass flying at you makes the film feel like a ride. I loved the 3d effects.
I really enjoyed this film i give it 4*'s
Womans fave : it has the HOT Collin Ferrell
