Director
Tom Holland

1985

Genre

Synopsis
High spirited horror from director Tom Holland (Child's Play) has a teenage movie buff (William Ragsdale, Grosse Point) taking on the unholy legions - no one believes that the boy's neighbour (Chris Sarandon, Dog Day Afternoon) is a vampire. He's just too handsome. So Charley must enlist the help of a cynical has-been (Roddy McDowell, Planet of the Apes) who gets one more chance of being a real hero.

TRIVIA:
The character Peter Vincent is named for two actors well-known for their appearances in horror movies: Peter Cushing and Vincent Price; the film that Charley watches in his bedroom is Scars of Dracula (1970).
