"Fright Night" 2011 Trivia Quiz

Answer: Colin Farrell

In the original, Jerry was played by actor Chris Sarandon. Chris had a cameo in this film. Jerry killed his character on the highway. Chris was once married to actress Susan Sarandon. Writer Marti Noxon penned this screenplay. Marti used to write for "Buffy the Vampire Slayer".

She also had a small cameo in the episode "Once More With Feeling". Colin has starred earlier in roles in such films as "Minority Report", "Phone Booth", and "Miami Vice".

Answer: True

Charley, Ed and Adam (the latter seen falling victim as the movie opened) all used to be very close friends. It's insinuated that in the not so recent past Charley had abandoned his long time geeky friends to hang out with the cooler clique in school. Amongst those cooler kids was Charley's girlfriend Amy, which was his real reason to leave his old pals behind. After Adam and several others disappeared, Ed was desperate to convince Charley that his next door neighbor, Jerry Dandrige, was the killer. They broke into Adam's house to look for clues, and later that evening, Jerry killed Ed in a neighbor's swimming pool.

Anton Yelchin played Charley. He also starred in the films "Alpha Dog" and "Terminator Salvation".

Answer: Doris

Charley saw her go into Jerry's house and then later heard the loud scream of a woman. He called the police, but Jerry sweet talked them into leaving. Charley witnessed that conversation, but was not able to hear what was said. After Jerry left the house, Charley broke in and hid in his bedroom closet. Jerry came home, but Charley found a hidden room behind the closet.

It contained several small compartments, about four feet wide and maybe ten feet high, all locked except one empty one. He saw Jerry drink from Doris, and later picked the lock and sneaked her out of the house. Jerry knew what he was up to, and did not stop him. Doris combusted as soon as the sunlight hit her body. Emily Montague played Doris.

Answer: He caused the house to explode into flames.

As a vampire, Jerry needed an invite inside. While Charley was in the middle of trying to convince his mom (Jane) and his girlfriend, Amy, that Jerry was dangerous, Jerry showed up and tried to get Jane on his side. Jane sided with Charley, despite her skepticism, so Jerry pulled up the gas line and set off a gas leak.

He then lit the line afire, causing the house to explode. Jane drove them away from the house, via her car in the garage. Jerry followed in his truck and a car chase ensued.

Answer: Illusion and magic

Peter had a show in Las Vegas, where the film characters all lived, and it was called "Fright Night". Charley posed as a reporter to get to Peter, who became alarmed at Charley's questions and threw him out of his hotel suite. Charley left behind some photos he'd taken, and Peter later realized that they matched at least one drawing of vampire artifacts he had saved from his collecting.

After the close call on the highway, Charley got a call from Peter at the hospital. He and Amy went to see Peter, who offered to help, though he would not be joining their "Scooby Gang". That line was a direct nod at "Buffy", as that was what she and her team were called on the show. Of course, the original reference was from the actual "Scooby Doo" cartoon series. Actor David Tennant played Peter.

He may be best known for playing Doctor Who, but he also played Barty Crouch, Jr. in "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire".

Answer: Stake through the heart

Charley's friend Ed arrived at the hotel, and posed as a delivery man. This gained him an invite inside, for which he used to try and kill Charley. He was a little irritated Jerry had been able to turn him into a demon. Charley did try to cut his head off, but was not strong enough to get the blade all the way through his neck. So, Amy used a mace to get Ed off of Charley, and Charley had time to stake him. Jerry was also in the hotel, and I am not sure how he was able to get into the hotel suite himself, as Peter was alive and hiding inside a panic room. Amy did douse Jerry with holy water. And, on her show Buffy did once trick a vampire into drinking it to kill him.

Answer: True

After Jerry took Amy, Charley wanted Peter to help him hunt and kill Jerry. Peter revealed he'd seen his parents killed, and only survived himself because he'd hid. He said there was no fighting the vampire, only possibly surviving. Jerry later revealed that he was the one who killed Peter's parents.

Answer: Exposed them to direct sunlight

After he staked Amy (but did not kill her), he ran out to find Peter. He was being feasted on by several vampires Jerry had buried in the earthen walls. Charley used a shotgun to put holes in the floor above them, which allowed sunlight to stream down upon them. They jumped off of Peter, who was still alive, but on his way to turning into a vampire as well.

Answer: Intoxicating

Jerry: "You smell that? It's your fear. It's intoxicating. It's a very specific scent Charley. Amy's scent, now that was exquisite."
He then thanked Charley for bringing Amy to him. He said she made him feel young again.

Answer: Ed came back to life.

Amy, Peter, Mark and the others all lost their vampirism after Charley staked Jerry. The scene went down as such: Charley indicated to Peter he was going with Peter's plan to set Jerry afire; Peter lit Charley and Charley attacked Jerry; Jerry couldn't thinks straight with the fire all around him, and became aflame himself after Peter opened up the floor so more sunlight could get inside; when Jerry's heart was exposed, Peter tossed the stake to Charley and Charley staked him.

As he was dying, Jerry's demon essence left each vampire down in the basement. That included Peter, Amy and Mark. Charley got the idea when Amy whispered to him that Jerry was inside her now.

He was already inside a fire retardant suit, as he was prepared to do whatever it may take.

He was not badly injured in the fight, and his mom also recovered from her evil high speed chase. Charley's cool friend Mark was played by Dave Franco, the younger brother of actor James Franco. Toni Collette played Jane Brewster.
