The 80's dropped a few movies of this ilk that blended horror themes with comedy (House being another good one). Plants its tongue firmly in its cheek and just focuses on being entertaining. Its really good fun.

Chris Sarandon is absolutely fantastic in this and the rest of cast contribute well.

Keep an eye on your neighbour, you never know who lives next door?

I liked Firght Night in 1985 and still like it - Fright Night is a nice little joyride, for a better rating I miss some serious gore, but well, you can't have everything, and not everyone is a gorehound like me. But Fright Night got solid acting, good effects, some moments of fun and a little horror, and an interesting story to tell. Still a good contribution to the vampire genre. Recommended if you like the movies style of the 80s, compared to modern production standards Fright Night is now a (golden) oldie and looks here and there a little outdated.

Classic, good vampire movie. Maybe not a great one, but still one of my favourites.
