Contains Spoilers Throughout.

This exists to record my thoughts on movies, and occasionally other stuff. Too often my thoughts on something go unthunk for a while and eventually forgotten. I figure if I invested time in something in the first place, it's worth a few more minutes to make sure I remember it.

Fright Night (2011)

Colin Farrell killed it in this one.  I thought it was really fun, and an interesting take on the currently oversaturated vampire genre.  Finally we get beastly looking vampires instead of just pretty people with fangs. Red Mist was good too.  A few weeks after watching this we rented the original, and only watched about half  of it.  We got too tired and said we’d finish it the next day, and then just didn’t.  It was pretty lame, but it seems like the remake more or less followed that story.  The biggest difference is that the main character was not skeptical, it’s like they rolled the Chekov and McLovin characters into one.  Pretty awesome fight scene at the end too.  Overall no great but no complaints.
