Fright Night (1985)

Surprised there isn't a thread on this already.

Well what are the views? Bloodsucking classic or a let-down?

While The Lost Boys is my favourite vampire movie, I do love Fright Night. It contains all the elements required of being a classic. A Chilling atmosphere, good gore/effects and good acting.

I really like Fright Night; it would definitely make my top ten fave vampire flicks.I'd like the movie on Blu-ray but seeing as I'm too much of a cheapskate to have forked out for the one that was available for a limited time, I'll have to make do with the UK DVD.Roddy McDowall and Chris Sarandon are great in it imo.I haven't seen the remake, but I can't imagine David Tennant and Colin Farrell better them.

The remake's worth a watch. Not great, but it was okay. David Tennant was the best thing about it.

Great film, really enjoyed it. Got it on Blu Ray and PQ is fantastic.

Never seen Twilight, and have no interest in doing so

We had a juicy discussion on here a couple of years ago regarding which was the best vamp flick from 87 - The Lost Boys or Near Dark.

It was all in good fun and many insults were thrown in all directions.
