Reviews
On the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes , 19% of 349 viewers gave the film a positive rating (as of December 21, 2013).
"While the 2011 'Fright Night' stood out pleasantly from the mass of horror remakes, 'Fright Night 2 - Fresh Blood' joins the never-ending stream of superfluous direct-to-DVD sequels."
"The film cannot keep up with the absurd comedy of the original from the 1980s or in terms of teen horror with the remake of 2011, but remains a toothless attempt to spread the Elizabeth Barthory myth in a bloody and sexy way."
