Where's My Fright Night??

I have a dilemma.  I LOVE horror movies. Which, with all sincerity, is not a big deal. But I find it is increasingly harder and harder to find people who enjoy a good horror movie.

For instance, yesterday the new version of "Fright Night" opened. I would have given anything to find someone to go with me to that movie. Sure, the egyptian used to be the one to go - but it's Ramadan, and he prefers to spend time with his other middle eastern friends in the evenings, celebrating and what not.

So here I am - stuck without a horror movie buddy. Most of the girls I know are.. and I totally mean this ... TOO SCARED to go. LOL

From the Original Fright Night

I've always loved a good scary movie. The eerier, the scarier - the better. Fright Night originally was a a so-so scary movie. As a kid, it did freak me out a bit, but oh how I love a good vampire movie. Honestly, the story line was perfect. Sort of takes your worse fear and brings it to life. Imagine your new neighbor starts bringing home guests who you never see leave. Turns out HE is a vampire... who just so happens to make friends with your mom, who makes the biggest mistake of "inviting him in." Of course, it is the total Hollywood version/legend of the blood sucker. It had some humorous parts, and some scary parts... all in all was one of my faves.

The newer version made an interesting choice for the vampire - Colin Farrell.  Don't flip out, but I am not a big fan of Mr. Farrell's, BUT from what I am reading, he did a really good job in this role.

Of course, I will have to take the critic's word on this one.. since... I can't seem to find anyone to go with me. ;-)

Here is a look at the trailer from the original Fright Night:

Perhaps this will be the perfect treat to myself on Sunday. PS - I hear it is in 3d!
