Why did I waste my time? This has to be the worst movie in the Fright Night franchise. In fact its not worthy of the name. I wasn't expecting much after the first five minutes but it got a whole lot worse.
Just awful. What was the point of making this trash?
A re-envisioning of the original 1985 cult classic, Fright Night 2: New Blood is misguide and poorly made. In this version Romanian college professor Gerri Dandridge is discovered to be a vampire by a group of visiting American students, who then seek out a horror reality show host for help in killing her. The casting of Jaime Murray as Gerri Dandridge is inspired and really adds a new dimension to the character. However, the rest of the casting is incredibly poor. The directing is also pretty bad, and is unable to bring any intensity or danger to the film. Though Fright Night 2: New Blood presents an interesting take on the material, it doesn’t work and is vastly inferior to the original.
Mala pero hay chichis
I liked it... I was expecting it to be a whole lot worse.
If you thought the remake was bad you'll find this near impossible to watch

I was thinking... how bad it could be? Right. There should be a rule that you can't make a sequel/use the name of an original unless you promise that the movie will not decrease in quality by more than 35%. I'd like to see the rule say you can only make a sequel/remake if you improve on the original but that's asking far too much out of the folks who are currently running the studios.
Geez. It's a sequel but the original actors are no where to be found yet they used the original characters' names.
Alrighty then. Replacing one character? Weird but not a problem. Replacing an entire cast? I don't think so. Most movies would solve the problem of a new cast by creating new characters but not these guys!
As for the writing? Well, the characters are entirely unlikable from beginning. The characters are chronically stupid and horribly immature and you want them to die rather than survive. Gooo team!
I dumped out about fifteen minutes into the movie because the dumb made my brain hurt.
Why, why WHY is it so hard to find a good Halloween movie I haven't seen?
