Let the Right One In

I heard great things about this film and so I just had to see what all the hype was about. Well I was not disappointed. A classic young romance story with a disturbing twist. I enjoyed the role reversal. A young girl was the tough vampire protector of a weaker boy. They are both outcasts in their own way. And even among all the horror it still manages to be adorable. Even though she is killing people you are routing for them to be together. And in the end when she saves him from drowning and kills those bullies you feel happy and reveled. It’s kind of an odd thing to say but I feel this is the horror version of Moon Rise Kingdom. They both deal with very young kids in love, running away together. The way they are handled is completely different but the underling story is similar.
