I found this one to be a very good film.... It is a long one clocking in at almost 3 hours... but the length really didn't bother me much as it was able to keep my interest. I does have it's slow parts and and really has a '70s feel to it... but over all well worth the time put in to watch it. Definitely recommended.

This is one my brother rented from Netflix and I wanted to watch before sending it back. The original Fright Night has always been one of my favorite vampire movies. And as most of you already know... I love my vampire movies. And I did enjoy this one... but I definitely prefer the original. This one changed a lot of things compared to the original... but unfortunately some of the things they changed is things I really liked about the original. But then other things they changed was pretty cool. One of the things I really didn't care for is that they made the Peter Vincent character to be a Criss Angel wannabe. Which put me off a bit at first... but then he grew on me within the last 20min of the movie. Over-all I would say it is worth seeing... and I would like to eventually add it to my collection.

My PILOT Marathon, a review by Rich

ROSWELL - SEASON ONE - PILOT



Premiered: October 6, 1999
Liz Parker learns Max Evans' out-of-this-world secret when he saves her life, and he must now rely on her to safeguard his secret as an orphaned extraterrestrial.   

American slop, and the worst export of it's kind. After watching some great Hollywood pilots, this bought me back to earth with a bump, truly dreadful in all regards. Ridiculous storyline, possibly the worst wooden lead actor I've ever seen (in this role anyway), horrendous and brain numbingly dull characters!
3 'aliens' drop down from space, imitate humans, fall in love with beautiful college girl, save her life with his healing hands after being shot,  - PLEASE!!! 
Ebay here we come
