Fright Night Double Dose

We're checking out the Fright Night remake in 3D tonight. And if you had a hunch that we're the same sort of hardcore, dedicated movie lovers as you – the kind that would watch the original before heading off to the theater – you were right.

I love the original for the three Cs – Cheesy, Creepy, Cool. If you've never seen it, it's a great vampire movie, one where high schooler Charley Brewster suspects that his neighbor is one of the monsters (and turns out to be right, of course). This is before vampires sparkled in the sun.

The word is that the remake is good, but for its own reasons. It's currently at 74% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Check out the trailers for both the original and remake below – and keep a stake under your pillow tonight.
