Fright Night is a 2011 American supernatural horror film directed by Craig Gillespie and produced by Michael De Luca and Alison Rosenzweig.

It stars Anton Yelchin, Colin Farrell, Toni Collette, Imogen Poots, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, and David Tennant.

Charley Brewster is a teenager living in a suburb of Las Vegas, Nevada, who discovers that a new neighbor has moved in next door.

Fed-up and angry with Ed after he claims that Jerry is a vampire, Charley tells him that he is crazy and that he does not want to be friends anymore.

Upon arriving at Peter's penthouse, they are informed that the species of vampire Jerry belongs to is cannibalistic when Ed turns up.

He does, however, give Charley a stake blessed by Saint Michael that will kill Jerry and turn all of his victims back into humans.

Charley quickly stabs Jerry in his visible heart, killing him, and returning his victims to their human form.

Steven Spielberg provided a great deal of input in the making of the film, such as storyboarding scenes and assistance with editing.

[10] Although the film received a wide release in the United States on August 19, 2011, an advance screening took place at San Diego Comic-Con on July 22, 2011.

The DVD version will include the "Gag Reel" and "Squid Man – Extended and Uncut" bonus features, as well as an uncensored music video for Kid Cudi's song "No One Believes Me".

Both the 2-disc and 3-disc combo packs will include five deleted scenes with introductions by director Gillespie, a gag reel, an uncensored music video for "No One Believes Me", "Squid Man – Extended & Uncut", "Peter Vincent: Swim Inside My Mind", "The Official 'How to Make a Funny Vampire Movie' Guide" and "Frightful Facts & Terrifying Trivia" bonus features.

The site's critical consensus reads, "It may not have been necessary to remake the 1985 cult classic, but the new Fright Night benefits from terrific performances by Colin Farrell and David Tennant – and it's smart, funny, and stylishly gory to boot.

[16] Robert Koehler of Variety writes, Fright Night has "a cleverly balanced mix of scares and laughs".

It stars Will Payne, Jaime Murray, Sean Power, Sacha Parkinson, and Chris Waller.
