Although these are some cool new pictures from Let Me In and I think that Chloe Moretz can handle dark, twisted characters like almost no other child, my problem with this film is that Let the Right One In never received it’s dues and before anyone even gave it a chance they green-lit an American-ized version. Check out the photos and compare them to the original film below…
For weeks there have been casting rumors regarding who will star in the American remake of Let the Right One In entitled, Let Me In. According to THR, Academy Award nominee Richard Jenkins, 500 Days of Summer co-star Chloe Moretz, and Kodi Smit-McPhee (The Road) have all signed on for roles in the film. The original movie was a Swedish horror film that centered on love, isolation, and vampires.
In case you missed it, we’ve had a bunch of amazing interviews, give-aways, videos and more this week. Here are some of the highlights…
Vampires are so hot right now (hehe), and this week is no exception. Let the Right One In, Changeling, and Peur(s) du noir all come to theaters this week. Let the Right One In, is one of the most talked about, well received horror-vampire films of the year. I highly recommend it even to the those who are squeamish, it’s a brillantly executed film. Changeling, the new Clint Eastwood film is receiving mixed reviews, but overall has an amazing cast, amazing director, and a gripping story. Peur(s) du noir, or Fear(s) of the Dark, is a creepy film that digs at your deepest fears and was made by six of the worlds best animators. Looks like what would happen if Tim Burton and Guillermo del Toro had an animation child. And there are plenty more to choose from if that’s not your thing!
Here are this weeks movie releases with cast and crew information, reviews, interviews, showtimes and tickets, and trailers! Enjoy!

A love story between an isolated young boy being bullied at a school and a girl looking for acceptance.
