Zavvi and Eureka are bringing us a jam-packed new Steelbook release of “Fright Night” in December
UPDATE – Zavvi have confirmed that they will be cancelling bulk orders by profiteers who were listing this on eBay within minutes at over double the price. The spare stock will be made available for sale again – we’ll update as soon as we know when.
On December 26th you’ll be able to get your hands on this great looking and fully loaded steelbook release of the cult classic Fright Night.
Pre-orders went live briefly in error, before being pulled, but we can now confirm they will be officially live at 6pm UK time on Sunday November 6th, so ignore the ‘sold out’ button before then.
Pre-order: Zavvi
He’s sweet, sexy, and he likes to get in late. You might think he’s the perfect neighbour. But before inviting him Jerry in for a nightcap, there’s something you should know. Jerry prefers his drinks warm, red, and straight from the jugular! It’s Fright Night, a horrific howl starring Chris Sarandon as the seductive vampire and William Ragsdale as the frantic teenager struggling to keep Jerry’s deadly fangs out of his neck. Only 17-year-old Charley Brewster (Ragsdale) knows Jerry’s bloodcurdling secret. When Charley can’t get anybody to believe him, he turns to TV horror host Peter Vincent (Roddy McDowall), who used to be the “Great Vampire Killer” of the movies. Can these mortals save Charley and his sweetheart Amy (Amanda Bearse) from the wrathful bloodsucker’s toothy embrace? If you love being scared, Fright Night will give you the nightmare of your life!

@zavvi @Eurekavideo Ordered earlier ?
That’s all gravy!!! ??
@zavvi @Eurekavideo looks amazing when’s this live
@zavvi @Eurekavideo YEEEEAHHHH!
This is more like it. A movie that hasnt had a UK blu ray release yet and a cult classic.
Missed out on Stephen kings it steelbook.got to have this
Get it from Amazon France. it is exactly the same as the Zavvi one. the only difference is on the face of the disk has Ca on it instead f the word IT. But the actually case has the word IT on it.

Didn’t it go live accidentally and sell out?
It was live briefly but I don’t believe it sold out. The ‘sold out’ button goes on anything that isn’t live yet.
If it DID sell out after being made live unintentionally, I’m sure Zavvi will reserve the right to cancel all orders and start again.
My feeling is we’ll see it go live officially in the next couple of weeks
If they cancel our orders, their will be uproar and zavvi can pish off. The scalpers are moaning now as they either missed out or only ordered 1 copy.
Well as I say I don’t believe it actually sold out, so that shouldn’t be an issue.
I can’t see Zavvi launching this on a Saturday morning, with zero fanfare, can you?
I know films in the past have gone live without any fanfare. But your right this, very big an important release. Obviously something has gone wrong.
If they do put it live again, I hope they keep our order. This will be an ‘IT’ release, as I said the scalpers are moaning and circling this release.
Scalpers can do one.
This would be awesome if pre orders went live today
Robb Blatchford I’m having some of this. ?
Omg All over this!! Good call ?

Really looking forward to this…totally cheesy special effects, acting, and storyline (but in the absolute best way).
