Amy vs Amy

The nuAmy is portrayed by the unfortunately named Imogen Poots and she really left no impression on me at all. She was a cute girl and I guess the idea was to show that she was unconcerned with high school norms like popularity and the like but she came off as a bit of a blank slate to me even though she did have a few kickass, tough chick moments in the movie. The original Amy (played by MARRIED WITH CHILDREN‘s Amanda Bearse) was a huge pill. She seemed to have a giant stick permanently stuck up her ass and was constantly giving Charley blue balls.
Amazingly when she gets turned into a vamp by Jerry, Bearse was actually kinda hot (she was working a little classic Ann-Margret action in those scenes) and that is not something that I would have ever expected from Marcy Darcy. Poots on the other hand didn’t seem all that different as a vampire from her regular self and that hurt those scenes with Charley.
