Senior Charlie Brewster finally has it all going on: he's running with the popular crowd and dating the most coveted girl in his high school. In fact, he's so cool he's even dissing his best friend. But trouble arrives when Jerry moves in next door. He seems like a great guy at first, but there's something not quite right—but everyone, including Charlie's mom (Toni Collette), doesn’t notice. After observing some very strange activity, Charlie comes to an unmistakable conclusion: Jerry is a vampire preying on the neighborhood. Unable to convince anyone, Charlie has to find a way to get rid of the monster himself in this Craig Gillespie-helmed revamp of the comedy-horror classic.

Choice Cuts Flashback: Tom Holland's Fright Night Tour
Editor's note: Since the Fright Night remake is opening this Friday, I thought we'd re-post our Choice Cuts episode with the director of the original film. Here he takes us on a prop tour and discusses the making of the '80s vampire classic.
Wrapping up our discussion with writer-director Tom Holland, we finally touch on Fright Night, the 1985 horror-comedy starring William Ragsdale, Roddy McDowall, Chris Sarandon, Amanda Bearse and Stephen Geoffreys. The film spawned a remake due in theaters at the end of the summer and has amassed a legion of fans. Holland was thrilled to open up about the flick, furthermore, he took us on a tour of his house which features a couple of terrific props from the production that were recently restored.
