Funny / Fright Night (2011)

Go To

  • Pretty much any scene with Peter Vincent falls under this but especially this exchange between Peter and his female assistant, Ginger.
    • Not to mention the time when Peter tells Ginger she was late for her entrance in one of the acts. She responds that he was early... in bed.
    Ginger: Good show tonight right, baby-cakes?
    Peter: You were late again on the "Devil's Torture Chamber".
    Ginger: I have something for you, look. [she gives him the middle finger] You were early again. In the bedroom.
    Peter: Fuck you!
    Ginger: I will fuck myself. Someone's gotta do it.
    • Also, when Peter tells Ginger to get the door.
      Ginger: I'm watching my program, you get it!
      Peter: You're 'tivoing' it, you lazy cow, come on!
  • And this:
    Peter: I guess I don't wanna be a man like me, either. *Opens his coat to reveal an impressive arsenal of weaponry.* Let's kill something.
  • Actually seeing the Doctor use profanity is in and of itself hilarious.
  • A subtle one: while Charley is lurking through Jerry's house to escape with Doris, Jerry is seen watching one of the Real Housewives TV series and laughing.
  • When Peter's gun jams:
    Peter: [click] Fucking eBay!
  • "I'm gonna pop your cherry."
  • Ed's not really the best vampire.
    • To put this in perspective: he loses an arm when he fails to get to Peter Vincent before he enters his panic room, gets chomped in the neck by an axe, has a bookcase dropped on him, gets hit with a mace and then finally get staked.
      • On the other hand, considering he just got turned and he endured all THAT before he got staked, maybe he's actually a really GOOD vampire in the very short time frame he had as one.
  • Charley's mom staking Jerry with the Century 21 sign and his reaction to it
    • Then Charley using another car to slam into his mother's van and knock it over onto Jerry
  • "That's a mighty big cross you got there. . ."
    • Jerry's mock horror in that scene really sells it.
  • When Ed's trying to escape from Jerry in his friend's house, there's a moment when Ed gets outside... and Jerry is in a chair waiting for him.
  • Mark, David Franco's character. His role was basically playing his Scrubs role but up to eleven as a high school bully, and when he becomes a vampire, he drops the funny. However, his line after being cured from his curse is this:
    Mark: Man, that was some fucked up night.
  • The final scene of the film where Charley and Amy are about to have sex in Peter's penthouse, and Peter accidentally interrupts them to come back for his phone. Before he leaves he tells Charley "not to do anything he wouldn't do", but admits that doesn't narrow it down much.
    Peter: That's, like, mini golf and sushi.
