looks very promising.

10/19/2008 11:16:17 PM

I've heard a lot about this film and I'd like to see it. Plus it gives me a chance to practice my swedish.

10/20/2008 10:04:53 AM

Any idea when/if this film will make it to any theaters down here?

10/24/2008 7:42:13 PM

Came out yesterday, think the closest theater with it is in NYC =(

10/25/2008 12:38:31 PM

Ill ask our distributor about this film. NYC/LA tend to open movies months before we see them in NC.

10/25/2008 2:41:56 PM

nice big article in fangoria

11/3/2008 9:56:48 PM

TAKE A ROAD TRIP. GO SEE THIS.

our distributor told me we are still getting this movie in the next few weeks.

11/15/2008 7:30:30 AM

where do you work?

11/16/2008 1:24:09 AM

he works at Galaxy Cinema, in Cary

in any case: if The Manor in Charlotte has it, I bet it's good

11/16/2008 2:21:51 AM

nice, have to remember to go see it at galaxy

11/16/2008 11:44:56 AM

so i dont understand how this "limited distribution" business works. why wouldnt a film production company want their films to play in every major city?

looking at the official site, they've got a weird distribution scheme, and Raleigh NC is not on it. but podunk little towns like Paducah KY and Dubuque IA are.

so according to their website, Galaxy is not going to get this film. you either have to go to CLT or ATL or DC

11/16/2008 6:50:03 PM

^ I've wondered the exact same thing myself. I know absolutely nothing about the movie industry but the distribution of this film seems odd as hell. However, I did go to the Galaxy webpage and they have this film listed in their upcoming section.

Cif82, let us know when you guys finalize an opening date.

the manor in charlotte does have it

This is how independent film distribution works. Yeah, if you're releasing a big mainstream movie, you're going to push it out to 3000+ theaters and that's an economic movie that works. Let the Right One In, however, is not a big movie. It did about $5000 per screen on 17 screens nationwide last weekend, and, if I had to guess, it'll do about $1000 per screen if it's at three or four screens (at most) in the triangle. There are a small number of people who will go and see this movie. That's just the way it is.

Your average mass produced 90 minute film print can cost upwards of $1500. Even ignoring the opportunity cost of showing a film this small--something most mainstream theaters wouldn't even bother with--the distributor is going to work with the smallest number of prints possible to maximize their profits.

And that, my friends, is why Galaxy isn't getting this shit for another couple of weeks.

11/16/2008 9:36:36 PM

^ "my friends"?

OMG SPOOKY IS MCCAIN

11/17/2008 8:54:44 PM

but i want to see the movie NOW

the hell they aren't. You ever been there? I've been to Dubuque IA ... the entire county has a smaller population than the Town of Cary. Paducah KY? this little shitstop has a population of 28,000. Yeah that's about the size of the greater Apex NC metro area

i dont care if your grandma lives there or what, im sure they're nice little villages. but why they get on the distribution list and the entire 1,000,000 population Triangle area doesnt --- i dont get it.

11/18/2008 1:29:15 AM

yeah, those are podunk towns.

11/18/2008 10:26:44 AM

Raleigh Grande gets this movie Dec. 5th.
I'll post showtimes as soon as I make em up.

11/21/2008 2:22:10 PM

Gonna pop this in the dvd player and see if it's good enough to keep me awake
yay press screeners

Spookyjon, you guys getting this film Friday Dec 5th.
The Raleigh Grande is. Actually I think we are getting Nobleson too.

11/29/2008 2:21:21 AM

Yup, this movie was pretty good.

11/29/2008 12:52:53 PM

i want to see this.

a vampire movie that's actually good? yes plz.

12/1/2008 1:19:12 AM

i wish films that had limited release paired it with a digital release. i am lucky that i live in a market that will be screening the film, but there is already a high quality torrent online so if i was not i would have to steal the movie when i would otherwise pay for it. (of course i wouldn't have to, but it would be the only way i would be able to see it)

12/1/2008 3:03:38 PM

whether you rip it or not, you should def go see it "ins theatre."

it's much more intense in a theatre on big screen w/ surround sound. plus you support independent filmmakers.

^^ In general, yes it is. A LOT of words are very similar to their english equivalent. The problem arises in how they say things in common usage. Word order and choice are often different. If you have an understanding of English and German, Swedish would be a breeze.

12/2/2008 5:35:21 PM

I kinda want to see this.

12/2/2008 7:00:14 PM

I think the story was really weird, and it kept me interested in it through out. I think a lot of the audience might not even pick up on some of the more subtle things.
I don't want to spoil anything, but my roommate and I were just discussing this film and he didn't catch a subplot at all.

12/2/2008 8:39:39 PM

what subplot?

12/2/2008 9:30:48 PM

i think he's confusing "subplot" with "plot"

12/2/2008 11:22:52 PM

I guess subplot wasn't the best word.
I'll explain...






***************************SPOILER ALERT*************************************
(Highlight to read)

















































He asked me how I think the American audience will react to a somewhat nude flash of the 12yr old girl vampire and I was like, "well, it didn't really show much but yeah that was weird and I'm kinda surprised they didn't have to edit it out... but you know the purpose behind it, right?"

and he said he thought it was just because he wanted to take a peek at the her but I explained that it was really because he wasn't that sure if she was a girl or not. She said to him multiple times "I'm not a girl" (because she's a vampire and a not a normal girl) and he always replied with something like, "ok". And I explained that I think it has a lot to do with him questioning his own sexuality. Especially since it's hinted that his dad is gay by the phone conversation he walked in on when his mom is yelling, "so you want me to just tell him his father is dead to him" (assuming he said something like he is moving on with his male lover?) and when he visits his father his "friend" comes over and they get drunk and it gets weird, which caused Oskar to just leave and hitchhike back home.

Basically my roommate didn't pick up on any of that and agreed with me. I think it's open to interpretation but that's what I got out of it. I think it adds a lot more to the story. Maybe I read too much into it, or maybe it's a lot more obvious to everyone else?

no shit, numnuts.

but I see that a moderator has come along and edited your spoiler so that the font color is the same as the background -- now it must be highlighted to be seen.

it's cool now. next time, don't be such a retard.

" ******Spoiler Alert*******

was acceptable.



I'm sorry if that wasn't obvious enough for some people

12/3/2008 1:49:26 PM

12/3/2008 1:59:09 PM

^^ it would be one thing, if the movie had been out for a week or two.

but you've ripped a copy off the internets and proceed to discuss the finer plot points the whole got-dam surprise ending on a general-interest forum, before the movie has even opened at the local heater.

seriously, if you can't see how much of a dickhead move that is, i can't help you.

^ hey, first off, I didn't rip it or steal the movie.

second, I was trying to be legit with my apology if I spoiled the movie for anyone.

12/3/2008 3:42:49 PM

his spoiler really has nothing to do with the ending, unless he edited out stuff

i caught some of that subplot, didn't think it was very significant

12/3/2008 4:04:43 PM

eh, i disagree.

what he described in the spoiler, as it became apparent to viewers at the end, completely changed my perception of events throughout the movie. it's one of the major parts that has been indelibly imprinted onto my memory.

well that, and the cats, of course ...

Quote :

"hey, first off, I didn't rip it or steal the movie"

okay, whatever, an advanced copy. my point was not about IP rights, but rather about giving people a fair chance to see it before they inadvertently read spoilers. if the movie had been out for a while, it would be fine... but really, it's kind of hard to ignore a spoiler and resulting comments when you have to scroll past it multiple times in an inline discussion.

Jesus Christ, I edited the post (even though it was already clearly marked as spoilers) and you're still going off on him. Give it a rest.

12/3/2008 7:30:56 PM

Hmm I don't want to ruin it, but the spoiler info that was posted has got the story completely wrong. Unless the book is completely different than the movie.

12/3/2008 9:59:53 PM

I hear there's already talk of an american remake
