Evil TV Spot For Fright Night Remake

The thing with Craig Gillespie’s Fright Night remake is that it has nothing to do with the original, except the characters have the same name. They could have named this flick something else and I would have been loving it as it doesn’t look have bad, but it ain’t Fright Night.

Okay, rant over on their YouTube page a new TV spot has landed entitled “Evil” check it out below.

Synopsis: “Senior Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin) finally has it all going on: he’s running with the popular crowd and dating the most coveted girl in his high school. In fact, he’s so cool he’s even dissing his best friend. But trouble arrives when Jerry (Colin Farrell) moves in next door. He seems like a great guy at first, but there’s something not quite right—but everyone, including Charlie’s mom (Toni Collette), doesn’t notice. After observing some very strange activity, Charlie comes to an unmistakable conclusion: Jerry is a vampire preying on the neighborhood. Unable to convince anyone, Charlie has to find a way to get rid of the monster himself in this Craig Gillespie-helmed revamp of the comedy-horror classic.”

Fright Night hits U.S. theatres on August 19, 2011 and UK cinemas on September 2, 2011.
