Fright Night (1985) - 6 stars out of 10

Fright Night (1985) - 6 stars out of 10

Though I approached this 80's vampire movie with skepticism, I was actually very pleased with the special effects and vampire transformations.  The vampires themselves were quite frightening and while some of the acting leaves something to be desired, Chris Sarandon manipulates the screen with expertise.  And Stephen Geoffreys... he is one of the oddest looking/sounding/acting characters I've ever seen and perfect for the role of Evil Ed.  It may not be the most realistic vampire movie ever created but has great entertainment value and will leave you satisfied.  Not to mention that it's a million times better than the 2011 remake.
