It seems the first official clip from Matt Reeves’ LET ME IN has hit the net today (via EnterUnderPenaltyofDeath), and we’re proud to say it features the criminally underrated Richard Jenkins. Now, there’s been a lot of debate as to the American revamp (pun, sorry) of LET THE RIGHT ONE IN – mainly surrounding whether or not the bastard ever should have ever been readopted in the first place. Bottom line is it has, and the sucker looks to core some f*ckin’ blood October 1st.
In the clip, which is nicely constructed, check out Mr. Jenkins perform a grisly yet necessary task of poaching some fresh young flesh. And don’t sleep on that Blue Oyster Cult jam…
Also Starring Chloe Moretz, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Elias Koteas, Cara Buono (below), Sasha Barrese, Chris Browning, Seth Adkins and Dylan Minnette –
LET ME IN follows Abby, a secretive 12-year old girl, who moves next door to Owen. Owen is a social outcast who is viciously bullied at school and in his loneliness, forms a profound bond with his new neighbor. Owen can’t help noticing that Abby is like no one he has ever met before. As a string of grisly murders occupy the town, Owen has to confront the reality that this seemingly innocent girl is really a savage vampire.
Let Me In, a haunting and provocative thriller written and directed by filmmaker Matt Reeves (Cloverfield) and produced by legendary British horror brand Hammer Films, is an astonishing coming-of-age story between a young girl and an alienated young boy unlike any other you have seen. Based on the best-selling Swedish novel Lat den Ratte Komma (Let The Right One In) by John Ajvide Lindqvist, and the highly-acclaimed film of the same name, Let Me In takes audiences straight to the troubled heart of adolescent longing and loneliness.
