Let The Right One In-2008 (Swedish) starring Lina Leandersson and Per Ragnar.
Maltin says- Unique gothic horror tale set against the snowy backdrop of a suburban town outside of Stolkholm. There, a lonely 12 year old boy who's bullied at school finds an unlikely soul mate in a strange girl who lives in the apartment next door-- and turns out to be a vampire. Unusual melding of horror and adolescent angst in an utterly ordinary setting; adapted by John Ajvide Lindvist from his novel. Artfully staged and photographed in widescreen, this doles out its moments of shock in leisurely fashion--which magnifies their impact when they occur. 3 and a half stars.
I say- Very sweet scenes between the kids sets this apart from every other vampire movie. They talk like the Swedish Chef from Muppets. 3 stars.
