Let Me In, Matt Reeves’ Americanization of Tomas Alfredson’s Let The Right On In, opens this weekend and the buzz is starting to grow. Twitter and Facebook are sporadically offering up truncated thoughts and word-of-mouth and a few reviews have hit the web from this year’s Fantastic Fest (keep an eye out for ours in the very near future). Rolling Stone’s Peter Travers apparently loved it, and is quoted several times this new TV Spot which continues the trend of generally good work from the marketing team. It’s nicely edited with lots of stuff to compare and critique for those who have seen the original and lots of intriguing eye-candy for the uninitiated.
Take a look for yourself and then go see it this weekend. And if you haven’t already, catch the original which is on Netflix Instant.

It looks great but it's still pointless (except for the $$$) since the original isn't even 3 years old yet. Though i heard there's no cat attack scene so that's a plus.
Watched this at fantastic fest and the whole time I was watching the movie I just could not stop thinking to myself. "Didn't I just see this movie recently".
This might well be good, certainly as far as remakes go but unless it's actually an improvement on the original (unlikely) I see little point in buying a ticket to a film I already have a superior version of at home.
No ill intent involved, but I found the original to be overpraised which makes seeing this all the more pointless. But more power to you if you enjoy 'em.

so many pissers on the internets have your smug fucking attitude, if the majority likes it, it must be shit.
go fuck your cat.
According to ARTISTdirect's Rick Florino, "Let Me In" ("Let The Right One In" remake) is one of the best films of the decade! Check out his 5 star review here! http://bit.ly/9tE5xh
