The script by TV writer-producer Marti Noxon is so unimaginative that people are actually called "douchebag!" in four different scenes.

Voilà! Black magic.

A remarkably confident remake that boasts its own pleasures more often than not.
February 28, 2013
Fright Night is an easily digested horror that doesn't rise above being just decent.

A 400-year-old vampire leaving a trail of undead corpses in his wake is nowhere near as terrifying as Colin Farrell threatening to bang your Mom.

When you consider how many wretched horror remakes we have to suffer through, doesn't a B+ effort like this one deserve a nice pat on the back?

Colin Farrell's performance as Jerry is the pulsing, stakeable heart of the movie.

This creepy and well-made drama offers up a few light-hearted moments to go along with its scares.

Farrell is all darting eyes, facial ticks and macho confidence. He never goes over the top, he's not a showy actor, but he's clearly relishing his role and eating it up with abandon. He makes this a Night to remember.

The new Dreamworks/Disney teen horror comedy, Fright Night, falls into the better-than-expected category.
August 31, 2011
A boring revamp, with dull 3D effects, insipid teenage protagonists and only sporadically scary outbursts of neck-biting, crucifix-wielding and staking through the heart.

While it might have reignited interest in the original and its sequel, the new "Fright Night" itself will probably be forgotten 26 years from now when there won't even be a bargain DVD bin at Walmart for us fish it out of.
