"I'm twelve. But I've been twelve for a long time."

For the latest radomly chosen Cinema Shock Roulette entry, the wheels of fate have taken us to Sweden, where we’ll explore the story behind Tomas Alfredson’s LET THE RIGHT ONE IN.

Based on the novel by John Ajvide Lindqvist, LET THE RIGHT ONE IN was almost instantly recognized as a modern day horror classic when it was released in 2008. In this episode, we’ll walk through its entire process of how the film came to be, from its origins as a Swedish-language novel, through its development and eventual release as a film from a director not known for working within the horror genre.

This is everything you need to know about LET THE RIGHT ONE IN.
