Holiday Greetings

Last night I saw an incredibly good vampire movie made in Finland called Let The Right One In. You seem to have access to international cinema, so hopefully you'll catch it.

I’m glad you enjoy LET THE RIGHT ONE IN. I like it a lot. I much prefer it to TWILIGHT (2008, Catherine Hardwick, A), because the world in LET THE RIGHT ONE IN is dirtier, bloodier, more frightening, and more seductive than TWILIGHT. I also wrote a little about this film in October in the link below:

Happy Holidays!
