"Let the Right One In"

On the urging of archaneah, I watched a Swedish film called "Let the Right One In". And it was utterly fantastic!

I'm going to be vague in any observations I make because I think you should all go and watch it for yourselves, while reading as little about the story as possible beforehand. Don't even read a synopsis or any reviews if you can help it! It'll be all the more powerful that way, I promise. Feel free to skip my babbling below if you want, too--it's really not interesting anyway unless you've seen the movie.

(Just as a note so you can decide whether to download or not, it is R-rated, has some violence/gore and some non-graphic child nudity, and horror themes. Just figured I'd bring those things up in case any of that makes the movie unwatchable/not at all of interest for whatever reason.)

( Some very vague spoiler-free thoughts, plus a link to a torrent so you don't have to search for it~ )

Apparently Hollywood is doing a remake of this movie. WHY? I can't say I'm even interested in seeing it. Why Hollywood feels the need to take already perfectly amazing movies and make awful adaptations of them, I do not know. It's one thing if the movie is incredibly old or something, but taking foreign films and remaking them at their whims? Pass, please. :/
