prologue

There’s some pretty cool end credits that last a couple of minutes...”

The opening credits of Fright Night pan over a desolate Las Vegas desert and focus in on a perfectly contained slice of suburbia with the bright, flickering lights of the city hovering in the periphery like a foreign and exotic destination.  It provides the audience with a startlingly isolated context.  This opening credits sequence also features the only stunning use of 3D in this remake of Tom Holland’s 80s vampire comedy, with its presentation of the film’s title splayed crudely in blood across the sand.”

The opening titles, however, looked brilliant with the 3-D rendering.  Fright Night is well worth a watch.”
