Yes, some cited redundancies between the two horror films, but seeing an eerie tale of loneliness reach a wider audience - without the original’s core complexities dumbed down or cheapened - proved more significant than any overlap.
The book that started it all, John Ajvide Lindqvist’s 2004 novel, became a bestseller before the author worked with Tomas Alfredson to create what Roger Ebert later called “the best modern vampire movie.” Then Matt Reeves came along with the inevitable American remake, and even 2010’s “Let Me In” earned rave reviews. Like a vampire impervious to exposure, “ Let the Right One In” is one of very few stories to not just survive multiple adaptations, but thrive with each new iteration.
