I just became aware of this DUH Jackie. Actor who played Charlie in the original movie FRIGHT NIGHT makes a cameo in the movie RENFIELD. I’m like why didn’t I see this coming?

The Great Rivalry

I’ve been laid up in bed all week with covid and decided to read “Dracula” for the millionth? time  (hey who’s counting).  It’s a timeless story about good versus evil battling for dominance. Being the vampire geek that I am, I was again awed at the epic battle between Dracula and Van Helsing.  Dracula will stop at nothing to get what he wants from the humans around him, while Van Helsing will stop at nothing to protect them. This powerful human and vampire have become the paradigm for every human and vampire rivalry that has come after. 

One such rivalry that has always captivated me is Jerry Dandridge and Charley Brewster from “Fright Night.”  I admit that Jerry and Peter Vincent would be a better fit, but there’s always been a certain something about the struggle between Jerry and Charley that grips me in a such a way like no other. With the release of “Fright Night: Origins,” my interest in exploring their dynamic has piqued again.  Jerry and Charley represent the struggle between good versus evil, yes, but are so much more:  shadow and light, confidence and fear, corruption and innocence, vice and virtue, despair and hope, hate and love, respectively.  

 I could write a whole damn essay on this.  In fact, I think I will.

What are some of your favorite vampire/human rivalries in literature and on the big screen?
