As you know by now the incredible Swedish vampire film, Let the Right One In, is currently in the process of being remade, by the same guy that directed “Cloverfield,” Matt Reeves. This Hollywood version of the film will be called, Let Me In, and it looks like, unfortunately, that casting has begun for the film. I hate that this film is being remade! The original is perfect! If Reeves respected this movie as much as he says he does, then why the hell is he remaking it? That show me that he doesn’t have respect for it, and that he thinks he can do a better job. I don’t think so.
So, a young actor by the name of Kodi Smit Mc-Phee, has auditioned for the role of the main character, and he tells “The Herald Sun,” in an interview that, “It’s looking good.” No deal has been officially made yet, but who’s to say one won’t be worked out very soon. Mc-Phee, stars along side Viggo Mortensen in the upcoming film The Road.
The original film tells a wonderful story about a bullied 12-year-old boy, who develops a friendship with a vampire child in a suburb of Stockholm, in the early 1980s. The new film will take place in Colorado.

You are right, the original was awesome. This movie does not need to be remade!
Wow…fuck that.
Son of a bitch! I just watched this last night and tweeted about how great it was and how I hoped hollywood wouldn't ruin it by remaking it… There is no justice in the world. So let's all wait for the cliche riddled, lukewarm, lowest common denominator hollywood version… There is no justice in the world. Nowadays, if an original and great film is made in hollywood it's in spite of how that system operates.
Isn't it funny? First Oldboy, now this? Fuck them. Fuck them all!
Hopefully they will take the opportunity to put some of good stuff omitted from the book back in at least.
OMFG! I am so mad that they think it has to be remaked! I the original was SOOO AMAZING! i LOVED IT SO MUCH! Right off the bat i hate that they changed the name. The name ha sa significance and changing that changes a lot! I dont, NO I NO IT DOESNT NEED TO BE REMAKED!
