Fright Night


Original
Remake
1985
2011
Actors: Chris Sarandon, William Ragsdale & Amanda Bearse
Actors: Anton Yelchin, Colin Farrell & David Tennant
Director: Tom Holland
Director: Craig Gillespie
Run Time: 1hour 46 minutes
Run Time: 1hour 46 Minutes
Acting: I was not impressed with the acting chops in this version. Lack luster casting.

Acting: With the cast being made up of accomplished actors as it is the acting in this one out ranked the original.
Effects: There wasn't really that many effects to 
 be honest and the few they had were okay.
Effects: Both practical and cgi effects were used in this and well done at that but nothing you haven't seen before.
Intensity: The intensity was lacking in this version, but a lot of mid 80s horror did.
Intensity: Higher than average intensity but not thru the roof.
Review:
Hands down over all the Remake wins special effects, better storyline and casting. Over all the remake was a much better movie than the Orginal.
