Have you seen Let The Right One In, T.Ross?

Another recent film that doesn't need a remake, although this looks like it could be good and not a shot for shot rip off like [REC]/Quarrantine

I gotta say it's a pretty good trailer. I'd go see it if I didn't know about the original. Though, I think the morse code will be confusing to folks that haven't seen the original.

The thing is ... the original is one of those things that's brilliant because of how it was executed. The basic story is nothing if you paraphrase it ...

Oh yeah there are some older threads where me and Dalmatianjaws were ranting and raving about this film. I caught it at our local Indi film theater. when it was first released. I also posted a thread a while back about how the first release of the dvd to America had dumb down subtitles. I was so mad about that because i had bought the dvd the first day it came out. It took a long time for them to re-release the dvd. So beware if you rent or buy this, make sure the back of the dvd say Subtitles-English (theatrical). If it doesn't say theatrical, then DON'T buy it or even rent it. A lot was changed and most of the dark humor was completely removed.

The original is a masterpiece. The guy who did the score for Star Trek and Up does the score for Let Me In, so to me tha'ts a perk. But I was hoping to see the remake shown in a different vision, but this remake looks exactly the same. I like how it is titled, Let Me In is the title of the book.

I will go see this as soon as it comes out. I love that Chloe Mortez stars in this movie, she did an amazing job in the film Kick Ass, (which to me is the best film of the year so far). I've always admired her work, since she first appeared in The Amityville Horror remake. She is a very talented young actress that I hope to see a lot more of in the years to come.

Yeah, from what I can see of the remake they've done a pretty good job of 'carbon copying' it. It's an interesting debate whether that's the best way to do a foreign language remake, or whether to signficantly change it around. I disliked a lot of the changes they made to the American version of The Ring.

Good point Sheridan, that's a hard one to answer
