Let the Right One In
This is a film of exceptional beauty and power. A gem of true originality among the vampire horror genre.
A young boy named Oskar is frequently bullied by some of his classmates, and has developed a very retracted, violently repressed personality. He has zero friends, but that changes once he meets Eli, the new girl who moved to his building (whom we later discover to be a vampire). Together they start a new friendship that will become a heart-warming and disturbing romance before long.
I saw this film after seeing Catherine Hardwicke's "Twilight", which I fell in love with, because of the similar topic of a vampire love story. Now, after having viewed this film I can say that Twilight has been completely replaced by this poignant, artistic tale of rage, love and discovery that may just be the top psychological thriller of 2008!
Twilight is nothing but a popcorn flick to enjoy with friends. THIS is a film to ponder deeply and to get lost it. I highly recommend it!
