Let The Right One In.

I'll readily admit that much of the interest in Let The Right One In was related to the buzz surrounding the 2010 remake starring Chloe Grace Moretz.  I decided I wanted to watch the original Swedish film first.  I have never been much a fan of horror films, but this one quickly became something more than that.  The chilling atmosphere of the perpetually snowy Swedish winter only amplyfied the chills from watching the torment of a 12 year old boy at the hands of bullies, the cool approach of a killer as he bled his victims, and the implications attached to seeking comfort with an eternally young vampire.  It's a downward spiral towards a life of violence in exchange for friendship, love and security.
