Long Way To Go Before You Can Count Me In

Ok. So you're committing to NOT casting late teenagers and Twilight-esque actors for the Hollywood remake of the absurdly brilliant Let the Right One In. GOOD. letmeinconccept1 So the artwork you are toying with for foreign sales markets aren't unimangnative or worse, repugnant and disrespecting to the core theme of the original film. GOOD. letmeinconcept2 But there's still a long way to go before I'm comfortable with a Hollywood remake of this tale, a movie that is still so fresh in my head as such an exhiliarting experience, one of the best films of last year. letmeinconcept3Matt Reeves, close friend of J.J. Abrams and the director of the excellent Cloverfield is a brave man taking on this material. Can he possibly get away with it and not make himself look like a jackass? And since when was this a HAMMER HORROR FILM and called LET ME IN? Weird. source - /film
