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!

I think the acting in the film was anything but dull. All of the actors turned in amazing performances. Colin Farrell, Edward Norton, and Jon Voight bring a brooding intensity to the film, that may make the film what it is. Without this cast, I probably would have been slurping down a large drink just for an excuse to go to the bathroom.
