10 Horror Movie Heroes Who Fell For The Same S**t In The Sequel
3. Charley Is Ignored By The Cops - Fright Night 2: New Blood
2011's Fright Night remake sees protagonist Charley (Anton Yelchin) coming to rightly believe that his new neighbour Jerry (Colin Farrell) is a vampire, and when he calls the cops, they shockingly don't prove to be much help.
When the police arrive to confront Jerry over his suspicious behaviour, he's able to diffuse the situation with his charming personality, and the cops ultimately don't believe Charley's claims, forcing him to deal with Jerry himself.
While straight-to-video sequel Fright Night 2: New Blood is technically a standalone sequel, it does nevertheless feature Charley as its protagonist once again, this time played by Will Payne.
And as he becomes suspicious of sexy college professor Gerri (Jaime Murray), he again calls the cops, who this time don't even bother coming to investigate. As soon as they hear Charley talking about a vampire, they assume he's making a prank call and promptly hang up the call.
Considering the po-po offered no assistance last time, this was nothing but a waste of 30 seconds.
