Let the Right One In American Remake Planned For 2010
Before the critical favorite Swedish vampire film Let the Right One In was even released last year, a director was already contemplating creating an American version. That director, Matt Reeves of Cloverfield fame, has already completed a second draft of his script, and the film, to be titled Let Me In, is already set for a fall 2010 release.
Reeves knows what you’re thinking, though. ”There’s definitely people who have a real bull’s-eye on the film,” he told The Los Angeles Times, “and I can understand because of people’s’ love of the [original] film that there’s this cynicism that I’ll come in and trash it, when in fact I have nothing but respect for the film.

FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU- please don’t, Matt. If you really “have nothing but respect” for it… leave it alone. This whole good-foreign-film-to-American-film thing rarely works out. And it’s not like this one didn’t get a release, wasn’t seen by many, etc. Can’t you at least wait like, 10 years to ruin a good thing?
