Forget about Twilight. The best vampire movie of the season
is this Swedish film about two alienated 12-year-olds falling in
love. Let the Right One In is in many ways a classic vampire
story—with outraged villagers and menacing late-night
visits—but in other ways, you’ve never seen a love story quite
like this. The slowly building terror and the weird sexuality on
display make the movie a convincing analogy for the horror of
becoming an adolescent. (Varsity, 4329 University Way NE,

It also says a lot about aging. Incredible film.
My favorite film in a very VERY long time…
it’s scheduled to end its run at the varsity this thursday. anyone know whether landmark theatres will shift it over to another of their venues?
there’s no way i can catch it at the varsity this week.
