The trailer for the American remake of the Swedish childhood goth love story Let the Right One In, changed to Let Me In, is finally out. Yes, vampires are the theme, but Twilight this is not. For one thing, the subjects haven’t yet hit puberty, and for another, the targeted audience is not hormonal teens, but adults. And this time, the vampire isn’t the guy, but the girl. The pint-sized assassin from Kick Ass, Chloe Moretz, takes the lead as said vampire, while the kid from The Road, Kodi Smit-McPhee, plays her human counterpart (the fabulous Richard Jenkins rounds out the cast). Film buffs who idolized the dark original film are already nervous about this American adaptation, and we’re a bit worried too. The trailer seems to focus more on action and gore than the actual relationship; watch it below and let us know what you think.
