Fright Night Trailer

Debuting in front of Priest this weekend is the trailer for this Summer’s remake of the 80’s vampire flick Fright Night.  Actually, it’s more of the condensed 3 minute of the whole movie, as pretty much all the major plot points are revealed in the trailer.   The movie follows a teen, Charley (Anton Yelchin), who has a new neighbor, Jerry (Colin Farell), move in and people in town start disappearing.  His friend (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) believes the neighbor is a vampire and Charley eventually agrees and enlists his favorite TV magician (David Tennant) to take Jerry down before he kills/turns his girlfriend.  On top of showing pretty much the whole movie, this remake also seems way too serious and trying to hard to be “dark”.  It’s been a while since I’ve seen it but I’m pretty sure the original was more of a horror comedy.  The remake is out this August and you can check out the trailer below.
