Fright Night on Blu-ray delivers solid video and audio quality but lacks substantial supplements, reflecting the film's blend of strengths and notable flaws.

Video: 58

The 1080p Blu-ray transfer of 'Fright Night' impresses with exceptional clarity, stability, and vibrant colors in both daylight and nighttime scenes. However, the introduction suffers from serious texture issues, excessive warm tones, and evident DNR, resulting in an uneven viewing experience.

Audio: 68

Fright Night's DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 soundtrack delivers a mix of precision atmospherics and high-energy action with robust, spacious music, and clear dialogue, though some may find the surround activity underwhelming beyond the explosive opening sequences and dynamic dialogue clarity.

Extra: 26

Fright Night's Blu-ray extras offer a brief but varied collection, headlined by an informative 'How to Make a Funny Vampire Movie' guide. Highlights include a silly Peter Vincent skit, an extended amateur short film, unrated bloopers, and a music video by Kid Cudi, with a bonus DVD copy as a plus.

Movie: 51

The 'Fright Night' Blu-ray is technically proficient with crisp visuals and robust audio, yet the film itself disappoints with its derivative and unoriginal plot. While Colin Farrell's performance as the charismatic vampire Jerry stands out, the movie's predictable storyline and underdeveloped characters fail to elevate it above standard horror fare.
