"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.
