Synopsis: From Matt Reeves – the director of Cloverfield – comes the new vampire classic that critics are calling “chillingly real” (Scott Bowles, USA Today), “one of the best horror films of the year” (Cinematical) and “a haunting, touching and unforgettable thriller” (Pete Hammond, Boxoffice Magazine). In bleak New Mexico, a lonely, bullied boy, Owen (Kodi Smit-McPhee of The Road), forms a unique bond with his mysterious new neighbor, Abby (Chloë Grace Moretz of Kick-Ass), who moves from town to town with the man who appears to be her father (Oscar® Nominee Richard Jenkins of The Visitor). Trapped in the mind and body of a child, however, Abby is forced to hide a horrific secret of bloodthirsty survival. But in a world of both tenderness and terror, how can you invite in the one friend who may unleash the ultimate nightmare?

 
Review: Let Me In is one of those movies that has been very underrated and misunderstood.  Its widely regarded as a typical horror film, when its much more than that.  To call this movie horror would be like calling Interview with a Vampire horror.  Let Me In is a re-make of a Swedish film, that is based on a novel "Let the Right One In". 

This movie is at its core about two young people finding a kindred spirit and overcoming impossible odds to be together.  The film can be a bit dark at times....ok all the time, but if you're a lover of real cinema there is no doubt that you'll love this one.

The special features include: Audio Commentary with Writer/Director Matt Reeves, From the Inside: A Look at the Making of LET ME IN, The Art of Special Effects, Crash Sequence Step-by-Step, Blu-ray Exclusive: Dissecting LET ME IN, Deleted Scenes with Optional Commentary by Writer/Director Matt Reeves, Trailer Gallery, Poster & Still Gallery and Also on Blu-ray.

Interest Range: Horror, Suspense, Drama
Based on the Swedish novel, Let the Right One In, “Let Me In is a dark and violent love story, a beautiful piece of cinema and a respectful rendering of my novel for which I am grateful.” (John Ajvide Lindqvist, author)
