Watch: New FRIGHT NIGHT Trailer!

Hey guys - here's the new FRIGHT NIGHT trailer and poster from Dreamworks Pictures.

One the of the big things I am looking forward to in this movie is Anton Yelchin (STAR TREK). Obviously he has no accent in this film and his ability to carry scenes without Colin Farrell will be key, setting up the battles between them. Judging by the trailer, I think they are setting things up just about right - let's hope the polish and story is there too.

I really enjoyed the original with Chris Sarandon - quite inventive I thought for a vampire story in the 'burbs.

Here's the storyline:
Senior Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin) 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 (Colin Farrell) 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.
