Låt den rätte komma in (as it’s called in its native tongue) is about Oskar, a bullied preteen boy, who falls in love with the girl next door. Eli, the girl next door, happens to be a vampiress.

The coming-of-age story is about curiosity, friendship, loyalty and survival. It’s not your typical vampire movie – don’t expect anything like From Dusk Till Dawn or Interview with the Vampire. It does however still satisfy those fans who want a bit  of splatter.

The kids in this movie all seem to have slightly disturbing tendencies, and I’m talking about the non-vampire ones now.

Apart from some scenes that teeter on child p*rnography, I enjoyed watching this movie.

The moral of the story: Don’t bully – especially don’t bully anyone who’s friends with a vampire.
