"Let the Right One In," was better. Quite obviously, it was vastly inferior. Of course, you had to be able to read subtitles, a high hurdle for some here.

    That was the one thing that was actually done pretty well in the remake. I consider the original to be a masterpiece and arguably the smartest horror film since the days of The Exorcist and Jaws. The remake clearly failed to capture everything that was good about the original. But I can't fault the actors for that. It was a good cast and they did as well as could be asked with the material rewritten the way it was.
