The Movie God   |  @   |  

The first trailer for the U.S. remake of hit Swedish horror film Let the Right One In has been released online.The movie, titled Let Me In, is directed by Cloverfield helmer Matt Reeves and stars Chloe Moretz, Kodi Smit-McPhee, and Richard Jenkins. The story originates from the novel Låt den rätte komma in by Swedish author John Ajvide Lindqvist.

Let Me In takes place in the early 1980s and tells the story of a young boy (Smit-McPhee) who becomes friend with a young girl (Moretz), who also happens to be a multi-century-old vampire. The two become close when she helps the boy take care of some bullies that have been harassing him. Ultimately, the movie is about nothing more than the relationship between these two young children, whose bond grows as the story moves forward.

  1. Very surprising. I loved the original and zero hope for the Americanized remake…. but this trailer looks quite impressive. I guess I may give this one a shot.

  2. I completely agree! The original was pretty good and based solely on this trailer, it looks like they may’ve genuinely recaptured the tone of the original. Don’t know that I’d see it in theaters but I’ll definitely be checking it out on DVD when it’s available.

  3. That actually looks pretty amazing, and it looks like they’ve hit and possibly exceeded the look and acting of the original.

  4. looks like they had more $$$ for effects, but the original is still the best looking…so far.

  5. mmm. veru few american remakes have done it for me (solaris was an exception). i liked cloverfield though. this looks quite close to the original, which apart from the ridiculous scene with the CGI cats was a pretty perfect film…

  6. Watched the original about a year ago on dvd. Yes this one “looks” to have followed the original fairly closely…but it IS a Re-Make, that doesn’t mean it has to go off in a different direction.

    The new casting looks great imo Also the “look” of the new film looks good (again imo)

    While the original was “original” in it’s concept and well done, it wasn’t without it’s flaws.

    Watching with sub-titles still left several moments a bit off for the typical western viewer. Looking forward to this version, from what I see in the trailer it looks like they stayed very much true to the original. I think people need to give things a chance before deciding something’s trash… Guess in a few months we’ll all find out…

    Regards

    – and remember don’t let just anyone come in!
