Chloe Moretz (Hit Girl from Kick-Ass) stars as Abby, a mysterious 12-year old girl, who moves next door to Owen (Kodi Smit-McPhee, The Road). Owen is a social outcast who is viciously bullied at school and in his loneliness, forms a profound bond with his new neighbor. Owen can’t help noticing that Abby is like no one he has ever met before. As a string of grisly murders occupy the town, Owen has to confront the reality that this seemingly innocent girl is really a savage vampire.
Let Me In, a haunting and provocative thriller written and directed by filmmaker Matt Reeves (Cloverfield) and produced by legendary British horror brand Hammer Films, is based on the best-selling Swedish novel Lat den Ratte Komma (Let The Right One In) by John Ajvide Lindqvist, and the highly-acclaimed film of the same name.
I LOVED Let The Right One In it was the weirdest mix of horror, romance, tragedy, and noir that just worked perfectly together. I'm terribly concerned that this remake will focus soely on the violence and horror aspects of the original and completely foresake the other elements that made it so brilliant. The clip below shows Abby's father out on a "grocery" run for his daughter's dinner. Check it out and let us know what you think.
