I get the impression that many fans of the original Let the Right One In are less than enthusiastic about this American remake - quelle surprise! - so clearly I'll have to Netflix the original before this new one comes out so I can be properly disgruntled about it. I'm actually slightly more curious about the original novel: I've been reading Swedish mysteries recently and I'm curious how other Swedish genre writing compares. I just requested the book from the library, so I'll let you know how it goes.

the original movie is absolutely wonderful. I don't know much about the book, although I do know that they changed certain rather significant aspects of it for the Swedish movie. Whatever they did, they did it well and I am just as disgruntled and reading about the butcher job they're doing on it.
