Synopsis
An art-house vampire movie about a lonely, bullied little boy and an even lonelier, bloodsucking little girl who form a tender bond in their snowy Swedish town. Tomas Alfredson’s cool direction, John Ajvide Lindqvist’s unusual script, Hoyte van Hoytema’s hushed photography, and the captivating performances of Kare Hedebrant and Lina Leandersson make for a flawless horror film that puts its high-grossing American counterpart, Twilight, to utter shame. Winner of Best Narrative Feature at the 2008 Tribeca Film Festival. In Swedish with English subtitles.

This is so much more then a vampire movie. One of my all time favorite films. The ending was so perfect, yet so wrong. A flawless film.

Throughout the many years watching foreign films, the single thing that has not changed is the simple standard of natural behavior they display, in constant contrast to our own films that so often lack even a story. I cannot compare to anything here, but I can compare to many foreign films, even from the same countrry.

With the slew of vampire flicks that flooded the box office last year, it was easy to disregard the bloodied face of an eerie little girl that showed up on movie posters in every art house theater. After the reviews came out, however, it was hard to ignore. For those who missed it, I suggest you grab a copy instead of reading further. Let the Right One In is one of the most visually striking films I have ever seen. Just watching makes you feel freezing cold, and the soft, chilling dialogue enhances the lonely winter feeling that encompasses every witness to the Swedish gem. I cannot say it is an enjoyable film-- chances are you will come out of it feeling slightly disturbed and unhappy, but the spectacular beauty and strikingly original screenplay should not be missed.
