Often melancholic and almost completely silent, drowning in snowy suburban landscapes, Let The Right One In has tons of beautiful imagery to showcase along with a score that supports the film as a whole and... read more

Oskar: "Are you really twelve?"Eli: "Yes. It's just I've been twelve for a very long time."
An assuringly unique and refreshing vampire story from Sweden, Let the Right One In is a motion picture of extraordinary mood and imaginative directorial potency. Instead of a customary genre feature, this Swedish sleeper is in fact a hushed, gentle tale of provisional friendship, the... read more
Description:
A fragile, anxious boy, 12-year-old Oskar is regularly bullied by his stronger classmates but never strikes back. The lonely boy’s wish for a friend seems to come true when he meets Eli, also 12, who moves in next door to him with her father. A pale, serious young girl, she only comes out at night and doesn’t seem affected by the freezing temperatures. Coinciding with Eli’s arrival is a series of inexplicable disappearances and murders. One man is found tied to a tree, another frozen in the lake, a woman bitten in the neck. Blood seems to be the common denominator - and for an introverted boy like Oskar, who is fascinated

"Well that was decent, very well crafted. More like drama than horror or action but I was excited about a different take on vampires. And I watched it and I found it boring, very slow, very little plot. After I watched this movie and the remake, I watched Interview With the Vampire, which did the same thing before in a much more layered and exciting way. And what did you know, both movies got new series around the same time."

"A poetic and grimly gorgeous vampire tale centering around a bizarre friendship with more heart and warmth. than the literal and figurative world of ice around them. "
