Posted on: July 1st, 2010 LET ME IN Trailer Seems Faithful
Yesterday our very own Moks posted his re-view for 2008’s beautiful vampire film Let The Right One In, and coincidentally, today we get our first look at the trailer for the film’s American remake.
The re-vamped version.. get it… vamped… is called Let Me In – written and directed by Matt Reeves (Cloverfield), and starring Chloe Moretz (Kick-Ass), Kodi Smit-McPhee (The Road) and Richard Jenkins (The Visitor).
Watch the international trailer, embedded below:
Official synopsis:
An alienated 12-year-old boy befriends a mysterious young newcomer to his small New Mexico town, and discovers an unconventional path to adulthood in Let Me In, a haunting and provocative thriller written and directed by filmmaker Matt Reeves (Cloverfield).
Twelve-year old Owen (Kodi Smit-McPhee) is viciously bullied by his classmates and neglected by his divorcing parents. Achingly lonely, Owen spends his days plotting revenge on his middle school tormentors and his evenings spying on the other inhabitants of his apartment complex. His only friend is his new neighbor Abby (Chloe Moretz), an eerily self-possessed young girl who lives next door with her silent father (Oscar®nominee Richard Jenkins). A frail, troubled child about Owens’s age, Abby emerges from her heavily curtained apartment only at night and always barefoot, seemingly immune to the bitter winter elements. Recognizing a fellow outcast, Owen opens up to her and before long, the two have formed a unique bond.
When a string of grisly murders puts the town on high alert, Abby’s father disappears, and the terrified girl is left to fend for herself. Still, she repeatedly rebuffs Owen’s efforts to help her and her increasingly bizarre behavior leads the imaginative Owen to suspect she’s hiding an unthinkable secret.
Let Me In is set to hit theaters October 1st this year.
