A

"bullied misfit finds his destiny with a mysterious girl vampire in the idiosyncratic romantic horror-fantasy Let the Right One in. Calling to mind the work of Anne Rice and Stephen King, atmospheric adaptation of Swedish author John Ajvide LindqvistŐs bestseller is well directed by his countryman Tomas Alfredson (Four Shades of Brown) and should click with cult and arthouse auds. Although plot centers on two 12-year-old outcasts who become soulmates, itŐs definitely not for kids" (Variety).
