"Let The Right One In" - A Pretty Cool Vampire Flick
11/20/08 18:08 Filed in: Cool Stuff
This movie isn't all that scary, but it certainly has
its fair share of gloom and doom. From the first
scene when we see a man's throat slit as he hangs
upside down from a tree while a dog watches until the
carnage at the swimming pool at the end, the movie
has a foreboding sense of dread to it. The director
made a lot of smart choices in this very well done
story about a 12-year-old (not really) vampire (Eli)
and the socially inept younger boy (Oskar) she falls
for.
You can't help but wonder what awaits Oskar once Eli tires of him and/or he gets old, but it looks like they've got a good thing until that day comes.
