Some of the lines in that film were so frickin funny. We'll never forget Evil Ed, what a great character. An updated version of Fright Night should be cool.

This is one of my all-time favourite vampire movie! Roddy Mcdowall is always to me, the one and only Peter Vincent - The Great Vampire Killa!! Can't think of anyone who can beat that in the remake.

What they should do is have Charlie Brewster seek the help of either Sarah Michelle Gellar or Anthony Stewart Head to get rid of the vampire.

Just a thought.

Love the original, I also saw it when it came out. Great mix of humor and the feel of the old time horror flicks.

Don't forget, you get to see the boobies of that lesbian chick from "Married With Children" :-)
