While I did not think Fright Night needed a remake, I was pleasantly surprised by this modernization of a classic vampire film.
With the newer version, we get a believable scenario of a vampire’s hunting ground, an update on the horror movie host, a more ferocious vampire, I just really liked the update.
Anton Yelchin played Charlie Brewster very well. From this “loser” kid who got in with the popular crowd who diched his quirky friends to manning up to fight Jerry Dandridge, Yelchin gave a wonderful performance.
