August 19th is Fright Night!

Woo Hoo!  Here it is folks!  Your first look at the new poster and theatrical trailer for the remake of the 1985 hit film Fright Night.  First of all, I am a BIG BIG fan of the original starring Chris Sarandon, William Ragsdale and Roddy McDowall. This is a classic 80's horror film and I highly recommend it if you have never seen it.  Also released is the new trailer! The new film has been relocated to Las Vegas and stars Colin Farrell as the new vampire next door and Anton Yelchin as Charlie the paranoid teenage neighbor.  Also cast is Mclovin Christopher Mintz-Plasse as Evil Ed.  The premise from the quick trailer looks pretty similar to the original but with perhaps a bit more action.  Interestingly enough, we get no glimpse of the great Peter Vincent character played by David Tennant and the great Roddy McDowall in the original. The trailer is below.
