326: Fright Night Turns 40

podcast

Sink your teeth into a very special episode of Reel Chronicles as we mark the 40th anniversary of Fright Night!

This week, Jack and Hunter are off, but the pod is in good hands as two vampire experts, JC and Rory, join Dave to break down what makes Tom Holland’s cult classic endure four decades later. From its unforgettable performances to its blend of horror and humor, the team revisits everything that has cemented Fright Night as a genre-defining film.

And that’s not all! This episode features a fantastic story you won’t want to miss: Rory shares how he bonded with composer Brad Fiedel over the yellow pages of all things. It’s a moment as quirky and unexpected as the film itself.

Whether you’re a die-hard fan who’s been with the movie since 1985 or a newcomer discovering Jerry Dandrige’s eerie charm for the first time, this pod is must.
