The Out of Print ‘Fright Night Part II’ Just Hit Amazon Streaming in HD!
There’s only one thing more terrifying than fighting vampires… becoming one.
Released in 1989, Tommy Lee Wallace’s Fright Night Part 2 has long been an elusive gem here in the horror world. The film’s official DVD release has been out of print for years, leading many to scoop up bootleg copies on the convention scene. While we’re still waiting on a new physical release, we’re happy to report it’s now streaming!
Fan Jared Rivet brought this exciting news to our attention, tweeting over the weekend:
“This is not a drill: FRIGHT NIGHT PART 2 is indeed streaming on Amazon Prime. It’s in HD and in the proper aspect ratio.”
We know what we’re watching tonight!
In Fright Night Part 2…
“Peter Vincent (Roddy McDowall), “The Great Vampire Killer,” and Charlie Brewster (William Ragsdale) are back in the long-awaited sequel to the box office smash hit Fright Night. And so are the bloodthirsty creatures of the night. This time the suckers want more than blood… They want revenge!
Charlie has just met Regine Dandridge (Julie Carmen), an exotic, heart-stopping beauty with a deadly taste for things warm and red. He can’t stop thinking about her…dreaming about her. Not even Charlie’s girlfriend, Alex (Traci Lin), nor Peter Vincent can keep him from being mesmerized by her fatally seductive powers. As the irresistible Regine drains the blood from his veins, Charlie is suddenly jolted by the spine-chilling reality that there’s only one thing more terrifying than fighting vampires – becoming one.”
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
