After all this years (20) of vampire slaughtering, Blade’s karate Vs vampire flicks, or even Carpenter’s Rambo characters, Fright Night still offers the scent of a classic. Tom Holland’s masterpiece holds by itself because of a great cast and a plot that gathers every single cliché of the genre and plays a bit with humor and a lot of effective spooks. Roddy Mc Dowall steals the movie with his over the hill terrified looser character. Even special effects are bizarre today as they’re a craftsmanship result giving some scenes a bizarre concept that takes you directly into Roger Corman’s “B” world. A true pleasure to watch from time to time.
