One of my favorite horror films is a Swedish vampire story with children as the lead actors. It’s by Tomas Alfredson, based on the 2004 novel of the same title by John Ajvide Lindqvist, Let the Right One In /
Låt den rätte komma in.

I finally watched #LetMeIn and the reviews I read are right: It's a very good #Hollywood #remake of the original #Swedish, #LetTheRightOneIn (#LåtDenRätteKommaIn); maybe the best such #movie I've seen.

It sticks to the story and looks great. I especially love the lighting of the railroad, bridge (b/w!), and pool shot (you'll know them when you see them).

I liked the treatment of the parents, especially mom, but the religiosity added nothing.

It's still a #LoveStory. In a way.

My fraidy cat journey rounded out with the terrific production of #LetTheRightOneIn at Berkeley Rep. The show's magic and storyline are stunning. Jumped a few times, not gonna lie.

#NowWatching: #LåtDenRätteKommaIn #LetTheRightOneIn, a story of true young #love.

Just finished #LetTheRightOneIn - really great stuff. Solid cliffhanger to end on, hope we get more!

Still watching #LetTheRightOneIn on Showtime. Really digging Demián Bichir & Kevin Carroll in this show. The show does a really great job of articulating the difficulty of raising a vampire child.

Digging #LetTheRightOneIn on Showtime so far - I’m always down for Grace Gummer and nice to see Nick Stahl in something.

Might squeeze one last show in for 2022 with Showtime’s #LetTheRightOneIn!

It's currently on #CriterionChannel along with #LetTheRightOneIn and many other vampire flicks like #TheHunger, the #LesVampires silents, #Dracula 1931, #Nosferatu and #NosferatuTheVampyre, #NearDark, #IrmaVep 1996 and several more.

Many of these are leaving the service December 31 though.

Is there a third film I can add to the unofficial modern female #vampire in love series, along with #LetTheRightOneIn (young love), and #AGirlWalksHomeAloneAtNight (young adult love)?

They're both well done and subversive, and I highly recommend them even though I don't like bloody, violent movies in general.

These are stories about real #love and acceptance; more so than just about any #RomCom, ever (I don't know if #WhenHarryMetSally holds up, especially after how flawed #Brazil seems now).

Let the Right One In Season 1 ★★★★★★★☆☆☆ https://trakt.tv/shows/let-the-right-one-in/seasons/1 #LetTheRightOneIn #trakt

Watched the season finale of Let the Right One In last night, and Holy Shit I did not see that twist at the bend coming. Please let there be a next season

I'm not a fan of remakes, esp not of European films relocated+revised for US audiences. while I liked the 2008 Swedish film on which this Showtime TV version is based, enough details from the film template are changed in this version to make it distinctive in its own right.
the 1st season finale, which I've just seen, pays off many of the slow burning plot points sprinkled among the 10 episodes, with a shock ending I genuinely didn't see coming. recommended.

I’ve tidied my #Goodreads shelves, crikey, they were all over the show!

I was looking at my ‘best of’ shelves and thought I’d share a stand-out book from each year 2016-2021

I also deleted about 150 books from my ‘to read shelf’, how my tastes have changed over time!

Any of these a blast from your reading past?
