'Let the Right One In' FILM
'Let the Right One In'

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, 781-5755. See movie times, www.thestranger .com, for details, $7.) by It's Paul Constant's Birthday, Everybody!!!
