Over Halloween weekend I happen to see the Swedish movie “Let The Right One In” directed by Tomas Alfredson. It is probably one of my favorite movies of 2008 because it is so haunting yet realistic for a vampire movie. The story is centered around the relationship of a 12 year old boy, Oskar, and seemingly 12 year old girl, Eli, who moves in next door with her father. The feel of the movie and relationships of the characters leaves you thinking about the film long after you have left the theater. This quality is what makes movies so amazing, and one that can leave such a lasting impression is very well done. I don’t want to spoil it by giving a synopsis of the plot, but I definitely recommend seeing it.
