I’ve been hearing some strong buzz for Craig Gillespie‘s Fright Night update, especially surrounding Colin Farrell‘s off-the-wall performance. We now have a UK trailer to show some of that off. We got a longer glimpse at David Tennant as Peter Vincent as well, who stars alongside Anton Yelchin, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Imogen Poots and Toni Collette. Check out the UK trailer via Bloody Disgusting below and the first two trailers here for comparison.
Synopsis:
Senior Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin) finally has it all—he’s running with the popular crowd and dating the hottest girl in high school. In fact, he’s so cool he’s even dissing his best friend Ed (Christopher Mintz-Plasse). But trouble arrives when an intriguing stranger Jerry (Colin Farrell) moves in next door. He seems like a great guy at first, but there’s something not quite right—and everyone, including Charlie’s mom (Toni Collette), doesn’t notice. After witnessing some very unusual activity, Charlie comes to an unmistakable conclusion: Jerry is a vampire preying on his neighborhood. Unable to convince anyone that he’s telling the truth, 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 theaters August 19th, 2011.
