Yes, RIP indeed Mr. O'Bannon; definitely too young for such a guy. He helped to make one of my favorite films, his first, Dark Star. ;_;
I saw these, though it was a good while back. Part 3 is honestly my favorite; straight-horror usually wins over horror comedy in my book (Exceptions being the Scarecrow and Wrong Turn series, which had btter comedy than serious horror installments
). The first comes in a close second, then part 2...
Honestly I thought part 4 was OK for the robo-zombies and the pretty Aimee Lynn Chadwick (survivor!
), and 5 was tolerable in spirit since it kind of followed the raver subculture like the first film followed punks. Overall the last two really were a big dip in quality though, most notably in my mind because the zombies were degraded to the simple "headshot to kill" types (maybe it was a weaker isotope of Trioxin? The number on the stuff was different
).

âThe Fright Night remake is a film which taps into the audienceâs deepest rooted fears, such as those of vampires throwing motorcycles at them. I dread the thought of a vampire throwing a refrigerator or a deskjet printer or... Iâd better stop before I give myself nightmaresâ
