Fright Night 2: The New Blood


Fright Night 2: The New Blood is a curious beast, it's a sequel in name only to the 2011 remake of Fright Night.

Essentially this move is a reboot of the series, now Charley Brewster, Evil Ed and Amy ( Charlie's girlfriend ) are in Romania as part of a student exchange program, here they meet Professor Gerri Dandridge who teaches Romanian culture and history who as Charley soon discovers is a vampire but not just any vampire she is in fact Elizabeth Báthory .

With the help of Peter Vincent the star of the Ghost Hunters style web-series Fright Night they must defeat Dandridge before she can complete a ritual that will allow her to have all the powers of a vampire but none of their weaknesses.

As far as movies go Fright Night 2: The New Blood is a bad one, the director breaks out every flashy trick his relatively low budget could afford but that just becomes irritating instead of clever after a while and the performances in the movie are uniformly bad.

This is a movie that's best avoided.
