As you have probably noticed, there is a new version of Fright Night being released now. I thought it’d be cool to do a post on the 1985 version.
Fright Night was directed by Tom Holland and released in 1985. It stars Chris Saradon, William Ragsdale and Amanda Bearse. Fright Night is about Charlie Brewster. Charlie has two men move next door. All of his horror movie experience tells him that one man is a vampire and one is his undead day guardian. He finds a has-been actor, Peter Vincent to help him.
So…What do you think about the remake? Have you seen it? Did it need a remake? Let us know in the comments below!
