Fright Night. 1985.

Teen Charley Brewster thinks his new neighbour Jerry Dandridge is a vampire and sets out to prove it to his friends with the help of T.V. personality Peter Vincent.

So we got Chris Sarandon as the new neighbour who only appears at night and enjoys the company of two ladies seen in his house. William Ragsdale who enjoys a good horror flick (a teen with good taste) who thinks Jerry and roommate Billy are up to no good. Roddy McDowall as the film and T.V character the fearless Peter Vincent who almost shits himself the first time being in the lair of the suspected creature of the night. Amanda Bearse plays the girlfriend of Charley and Jerry (Homage to Dracula maybe) and Stephen Geoffreys as the the friend Evil Ed who knows how to laugh.

Certainly throwback to the 80s with The Lost Boys that came out two years later, this really never gets old or boring with every viewing. There is one or two noticeable goofs and errors involving vampires and mirrors but they are a mere blink and miss. You gotta love Brad Fiedel and his background score to the film and the make-up effects used.
