Let me in

Let me in


Over the weekend saw the "let me in" movie, the amerikan remake of a swedish movie. I haven't seen the original one so I cant compare, but somehow thats good, since I can see the movie by itsef.

The movie goes about a boy called Owen that live in an apartment place and is bullyied by his schoolmates. Two new people come to live at the apartments and soon one night Owen meets the new girl Abby. As time goes Abby and Owen become friends. Problem is Abby is a vampire.
During those days, Abby's "father" is seen around town murdering people to get blood, and an Inspector trying to solve the murders.
Both side of the story come to a meeting point where both Owen and Abby must take a decision on what to do, and what about eachother.

The movie is good, it was an interesting new point of view of the vampire myth, and a nice way of puting the contrast beetwen the evil aura that a vampire supposedly has, and the cuteness of children.
80% of the movie is Abby and Owen, and both kid actors give a good performance in playing them.
Other good thing about the movie is the settings and images, those really make you feel the tension, loneliness and isolation.
A great scene also at the burning at the hospital.

A good movie to see.
