We spoke to the Fight Night creators & Rosario Dawson at a recording of Manifest Media's Table Read podcast.
Manifest Media 's Table Read podcast has finally released its highly-anticipated Fright Night episode. Back in April, the original cast of Fright Night was joined by Mark Hamill and Rosario Dawson to record a reading of the 1985 horror camp classic. ComicBook was lucky enough to be in attendance during the live reading, and we got the chance to chat with the film's director, Tom Holland, as well as its star, Chris Sarandon .
"We did this movie at a time when the vampire movie genre was sort of in ill repute," Sarandon shared with ComicBook."And it had a wonderful kind of salutatory effect on the genre and also on the return of fans who love these movies ... The first time I read it, it was the sample script, and I looked at the title and I said, 'No, I can't do a movie called Fright Night. I'm a serious actor.
Tom Holland Talks Fright Night's Success"They thought the film wasn't going to do any business," Holland added during his chat with ComicBook."But they had a place on their schedule for a little film. So they gave me that idea, $9 million, and they didn't bother me because there were no stars in it. There was not a lot of money riding on it. They didn't expect anything.
Chris Sarandon Shares Stories About Roddy McDowall"Well, my wife had worked with Roddy on a tour many years before with Vincent Price and his wife, Coral Browne, and she was on the road with them for a long time, so she became close friends with her," Sarandon told ComicBook when asked about McDowall.
