UPDATED: Hi-res quality images here!:

I’m not exactly sure why Moviefone opted to post tiny, low quality images, but either way inside you’ll find the first ever stills from DreamWorks Fright Night 3D, Craig Gillespie’s remake that’ll arrive in theaters on August 19.

The first images will give you a first look at star Colin Farrell as Jerry Dandridge about to fang bang neighbor Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin). You’ll also get your first looks at Imogen Poots and Christopher Mintz-Plasse as the new “Evil” Ed.

In the film, “Charlie Brewster (Yelchin) is a high school senior who’s on top of the world–that is until Jerry (Farrell) moves in next door and Charlie discovers that he is a vampire preying on the neighborhood.”

Fright Night 3D director Craig Gillespie will soon be set as director of Pride And Prejudice And Zombies, Lionsgate’s adaptation of the Seth Grahame-Smith novel that enhanced the Jane Austen classic with a smattering of flesh-eating walking corpses, reports Deadline. Gillespie has been a frontrunner on the Lionsgate project since Mike White dropped out.

The project mixes Jane Austen’s 1813 classic novel “Pride and Prejudice,” centering on Elizabeth Bennet’s quest for love and independence amid the outbreak of a virus that turns the dead into zombies. The story’s set in an alternate version of 19th Century England that features deadly ancestors roaming the countryside.

While other genre sites were spreading unconfirmed rumors of Black Death‘s Christopher Smith being a “lock” to direct Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, Lionsgate has other ideas…

Vulture is now reporting that Craig Gillespie, helmer of DreamWorks’ Fright Night remake, is in fresh talks to revive this delayed project. Recently, writer-director Mike White exited the adaptation, which David O. Russell had been toying with before he decided to adapt the video game Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune.

The Seth Grahame-Smith-penned novel mixes Jane Austen’s 1813 classic novel “Pride and Prejudice,” centering on Elizabeth Bennet’s quest for love and independence amid the outbreak of a virus that turns the dead into zombies.
