I'll admit I was never much into Vampire flicks, but this one wasn't too bad.
"Let The Right One In" is a Swedish film about a young boy who falls in love with a young girl who happens to be a blood sucking vampire. Along the lines of the widely acclaimed Twilight series, what makes this movie remarkable (its won tons of awards) is how well the writer John Ajvide Lindqvist and director Tomas Alfredson evoke sympathy out of the audience. Halfway into the film, you forget about the body count she's left behind her and instead sympathize with her tragic fate; She wants more than anything to be human, but she can't deny her insatiable thirst for blood. What's a vampire to do?
Recommended, if you don't mind subtitles. Check the trailer below.
