Review of Fright Night (2011) by Geoffrey D — 14 Apr 2012

Peter Vincent (David Tennant): I guess I don't wanna to be a man like me either. Lets kill something.

Now this is how a Vampire should be displayed. It even lampshaded it with the Twilight reference saying that it's a work of 'fiction'. I appreciated that and found that moment to be rather funny. This movie did well in doing that making the scary scenes less frighting by having quotes and dialogue that are humorous. The acting was really good and you could relate to all the characters in some way. Being a fan of 'Doctor Who', and wanting to see this movie partly because of him, it was weird hearing him swear as much as he did, However, it did work well for his character and he was also one of the cast who gave the most humor, and therefore enjoyed his role.

The plot was good however, I found that not much happened in the first half and the end seemed to stop abruptly. Sill enjoyable though. Overall a great film it would be interesting to see the first one now after seeing this.
