If you’re like me and have bought Fright Night multiple times, this set is still a must and demands a double or triple dip. Not only is the packaging freaking fantastic, the new two hour version of You’re So Cool, Brewster! sounds worth price alone. If you haven’t seen the original, I implore you to check it out.
Featuring one of the best scripts ever produced, Writer/Director Tom Holland’s immortal Fright Night only gets better with age. With stellar performances by Chris Sarandon (Jerry Dandrige) and Roddy McDowell (Peter Vincent), the movie is perfection in the three filmmaking mains — writing, acting and direction.
With the set coming from Zavvi, there’s a good chance it’ll be region locked. So those who don’t have a region-free Blu-ray player won’t be able to play the discs. But it’s also possible that it won’t be locked at all, just a heads up. Pre-order your VHS-style Fright Night Blu-ray today.
