With each new entry, Chucky somehow manages to grow even more maniacal and devious, adapting to bizarre new […]

Matt Donato Anton Yelchin, Colin Farrell, Editorials, Fright Night, Movies, Revenge of the Remakes, Tom Holland

Tom Holland‘s Fright Night has cemented itself as a crucial pillar in ’80s vampire canon. There’s an embrace of bloodsucker mythologies in addition to cheeky commentaries about how vamps are perceived in the media (using the character of Peter Vincent). It’s a tale as old as Dracula between eternal lust and pointed fangs that sometimes […]
