Jerry Dandrige is the main antagonist in the 1985 horror film "Fright Night," directed by Tom Holland.
Early Life and Transformation:
Jerry Dandrige is portrayed as a charismatic and enigmatic vampire who has lived for centuries, originally hailing from Eastern Europe. Little is known about his human life before becoming a vampire, but it's implied he was turned centuries ago, possibly during the medieval times when vampirism was a more prevalent legend in Europe.
Appearance and Abilities:
Physically, Jerry is portrayed as a suave and handsome man with a disarming charm, which he uses to blend into modern society. He possesses superhuman strength, speed, and agility typical of vampires in folklore and cinema. He can also mesmerize and manipulate humans, using his hypnotic gaze to control and lure victims.
Arrival in Suburbia:
Jerry relocates to a suburban neighborhood in the United States, specifically targeting the house next to protagonist Charley Brewster. He maintains a low profile initially, but his presence soon becomes apparent as disappearances and strange occurrences escalate.
Conflict with Charley Brewster:
The central conflict of "Fright Night" revolves around Jerry's pursuit of Charley Brewster and his friends. Charley becomes suspicious of Jerry after witnessing his mysterious behavior and becomes convinced that Jerry is a vampire. Jerry, aware of Charley's suspicions, begins to target him and those close to him, including Charley's girlfriend, Amy Peterson, and his friend, "Evil" Ed Thompson.
Manipulation and Deception:
Jerry employs both charm and intimidation to dissuade Charley from revealing his true nature to others. He attempts to seduce and manipulate Amy, turning her against Charley and exploiting her vulnerability.
Transformation of "Evil" Ed:
One of Jerry's victims is Charley's friend, "Evil" Ed Thompson, whom he turns into a vampire to further torment Charley. Ed becomes a servant of Jerry, creating an emotional and psychological toll on Charley as he struggles to save his friend.
Final Confrontation:
As Charley becomes more determined to stop Jerry, he seeks the help of Peter Vincent, a washed-up actor who hosts a TV show about vampires. Together, they confront Jerry in a climactic battle at Jerry's house. Despite Jerry's formidable powers, Charley and Peter manage to exploit his weaknesses and ultimately destroy him, ending his reign of terror.

His portrayal by Chris Sarandon in the original film is particularly memorable for its blend of charm and menace, setting a standard for vampire characters in horror cinema.
