Since it was my first visit to Living Room Theaters, I'm tempted to review the theater, rather than the movie. Large, comfy seats, foot rests, an upscale bar/dining room attached, in-theater service, premium sound and crisp all-digital projection, and only a small premium over the "regular" theaters (my matinée was $9)... nice. Only downside was a distracting reflection on the screen, but it wasn't enough to bug the management about.
Still, as my first movie of 2009, the film itself deserves some mention. It's about a lonely kid who meets a strange kid in the woods one night. The strange one doesn't mind the cold, is smart enough to solve a Rubik's cube at first sight, and one night, attacks and kills a grown man, drinking his blood.
Yeah, she's a vampire.
Yes, I said "she". This ain't "Twilight". It's "Låt den rätte komma in" ("Let The Right One In"), a Swedish import. It's creepy and sweet and sometimes hilarious (apparently cats, in Sweden, hate vampires to an extent I didn't think possible)... but mostly creepy.
Eli, the vampire girl, played by Lina Leandersson, has that other-worldly affect and world-weariness that seems far beyond her years. Truthfully, so does Oskar (Kåre Hedebrant), due to his preternatural, almost albino, blondeness.
