Fox Home Entertainment has officially announced the October release of Fright Night 2: New Blood on Blu-ray and DVD. From what we've seen and heard, this movie is more of a reboot than a sequel, even though it has a "2" in the title. The story finds the main characters in Romania, where they encounter Gerri, a professor played by Jaime Murray that they believe is a vampire:
"By day Gerri Dandridge is a sexy professor, but by night she transforms into a real-life vampire with an unquenchable thirst for human blood. So when a group of high school students travel abroad to study in Romania, they find themselves ensnared in Gerri’s chilling web of lust and terror. Charley and “Evil” Ed must stop Gerri from drinking and bathing in the blood of a “new moon virgin,” which just so happens to be Charley’s ex-girlfriend, Amy. They enlist help from Peter Vincent, the vampire hunting host of a reality show called "Fright Night," to drive a stake through Gerri’s plan and save Amy from a fate far worse than death."
We got an early look at the trailer during Comic-Con and expect to have it for Daily Dead readers in the near future. Until then, you can learn more about the movie from our exclusive interview with Jaime Murray:
