Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
A boring revamp, with dull 3D effects, insipid teenage protagonists and only sporadically scary outbursts of neck-biting, crucifix-wielding and staking through the heart.

fresh:
Colin Farrell's performance as Jerry is the pulsing, stakeable heart of the movie.

fresh:
Farrell is all darting eyes, facial ticks and macho confidence. He never goes over the top, he's not a showy actor, but he's clearly relishing his role and eating it up with abandon. He makes this a Night to remember.

fresh:
A remarkably confident remake that boasts its own pleasures more often than not.

fresh:
The new Dreamworks/Disney teen horror comedy, Fright Night, falls into the better-than-expected category.
