News today from HeatVision updates the casting for this project with two big names to star in Craig Gillespie’s update. Toni Collette will play the mother to previously announced Anton Yelchin’s inquisitive teenager, and Colin Farrell has been cast as the charming neighbour whom Yelchin suspects of being a vampire.
Yelchin was a great pick, and Farrell and Collette seem to be perfect casting for the project, and while people may balk as Farrell’s casting in particular there’s no-one who can play disturbingly charming quite like him.
Usually I’m against the constant remaking of 80s properties which has become like a sport in recent years, but as the cast gathers together, and with Buffy writer Marti Noxon on scripting duties, this is definitely one to watch out for.
I just hope they use the original poster again.
david tennant will not find it hard to play peter vincent
because he will find it easy to play another encentrical role
because david played an encentric timelord in uk scifi award winning
drama series dr who all remains now who is to play amy petersen

with cgi effects and more action less dialogue the 85 version it was ok but too many boringy bitts maybe a fright night part 2 remake next with angelina jolie as regine
dandridge for to play amy in the remake of fright night 1 either rumer willis or
briana evigan from sorority row and step up 2 and have fright night in 3d
