MTV Will Host a Special Sneak Peak at FRIGHT NIGHT Tonight

Though I usually avoid MTV like the plague (watching trashy Jersey girls prance around is against my religion), I will be checking in with it all this week as the once great “Music Television” will hosts a special preview of a different upcoming movie each night leading up to the MTV Movie Awards (which airs June 5th).  Tonight, Monday May 30th, will bring the focus on Craig Gillespie’s remake of Fright Night.  The film stars Anton Yelchin and Christopher Mintz- Plasse as a pair of teenagers who believe a vampire has just moved into their neighborhood (played by Colin Farrell).  At 11 p.m. ET, “MTV will welcome Christopher Mintz-Plasse onto MTV to present an exclusive clip on-air. The conversation will continue online, as our own Josh Horowitz hosts an extended chat with Mintz-Plasse, where we will be asking questions submitted by our readers and viewers; just tweet at @MTVNews using the hashtag #SPW.” The on-going series this week will conclude on Friday with director Ruben Fleischer (Zombieland) as he talks about his new upcoming film 30 Minutes or Less.

Somewhere between growing up on a steady diet of Saturday morning trips to the local comic-book shop, collecting an unhealthy amount of action figures, and frequent viewings of Ray Harryhausen and Hammer Horror films, came forth a nerdy boy that was torn between journalism and the arts. In high school, Michael found himself writing a movie column for the school newspaper. Yet, he went on to get a BFA in Studio Art at Webster University. When not writing about films, you can still find him discussing classic horror, collecting action figures, and reading Batman. Clearly, not much has changed.
