Fright Night: Difference between revisions

* [[Badass Longcoat]]: Jerry is often seen in a villainous one.

* [[Badass Normal]]: Charley, Peter, Alex.

* [[Becoming the Mask]]: Peter

* [[Berserk Button]] / [[Embarrassing Nickname]]: Ed ''hates'' being called "Evil."

* [[Demon Head]]

* [[Did Mom Just Have Tea With Cthulhu?]]

* [[Dying As Yourself]]: {{spoiler|Evil Ed.}}

* [[Enemy Rising Behind]]

* [[Glowing Eyes of Doom]]: {{spoiler|Ed, in the ending, from Jerry's house.}}

* [[Gorn]]

* [[Happily Ever After]]: Even though Charley has been bitten. Did the deaths of the original vampires just cancel that out?

** It did in the first movie with Amy.

* [[Hidden Depths]]

* [[Holy Burns Evil]]

* [[I Cannot Self-Terminate]]: A subversion, when Evil Ed yanks Charley's chain by claiming he's been bitten by the vampire and needs to be killed. {{spoiler|Naturally, that's exactly what happens to Ed as soon as Charley stomps off in anger}}.

* [[Idiot Ball]]: At one point, Charley gets a cop over to Jerry's house on false pretenses and tells him that there is a coffin in the basement, but then [[You Have to Believe Me|lets slip in a near-frenzy that it contains a vampire]]. Had he instead told the officer that the coffin contained one of the recent unsolved murder victims, then the game would have been over for the antagonists. The man would have found the sleeping vampire (to his eyes, a corpse) in the coffin and arrested Billy Cole for murdering his friend, blowing the pair's cover, or alternately faced far-too-suspicious reluctance from Billy to let him down there. Either way, the rest of the film could not have occurred. Not to mention Charley ''let [[The Renfield]] know he was on to them''. [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]].

* [[Large Ham]]: Jerry, Peter.

** Also {{spoiler|Evil Ed}} "''Dinner'' is in the ''oven!'' MMM-''MMM!''"

* [[Loud Gulp]]: Peter does one after finding out {{spoiler|Evil Ed [[The Reveal|has become a vampire]], thanks to Jerry.}}

* [[A Man Is Always Eager]]: Used in the opening sequence.

** Played straight in the sequel when a werewolf does actually show up.

* [[Pivotal Wakeup]]: Jerry

* [[Reincarnation Romance]]

* [[Riddle for The Ages]]: Just ''what'', exactly, {{spoiler|Billy Cole}} was is never explained.
