"Mad Men" writer-producer Marti Noxon has been hired to pen DreamWorks Studios' revamp of the 1985 horror comedy "Fright Night." Before her work on AMC's "Mad Men," Noxon was a writer-producer on the bloodsucker series "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Angel," so fangs and stakes are in her blood.

Producers Michael De Luca, Michael Gaeta and Alison Rosenzweig set up the "Fright" project in May. DreamWorks executive Mark Sourian is overseeing for the studio.

The original "Fright," released in 1985, was written and directed by Tom Holland and starred Chris Sarandon, Roddy McDowall and William Ragsdale. Ragsdale played a teenager who discovers his neighbors are vampires.

The new version will keep the comedy-horror tone while modernizing the effects.

If I recall correctly, Marti Noxon was the cause of some bad moves on the Buffy front. So, we'll have to see.

Do you have any examples of what you mean by "bad moves?"

Nobody can replace Chris Sarandon and his sexy damn ass! Or can they?

I recall that she was said to have been responsible for the whole Buffy screwing Spike thing. Basically her writing out of character scenarios because she was infatuated by the aforementioned character. But, that's based on internet chatter, so I don't really know how much truth there is to it.
