Let The Right One In

I watched Let The Right One In last night.

It's a Swedish romantic horror film based on the book by John Ajvide Lindqvist, which tells the story of a bullied 12-year-old boy who develops a friendship with a vampire in a suburb of Stockholm.

It was beautiful (and gory) and really fascinating to watch... especially the final scene, which has been described as "one of the best endings in the history of cinema."

I highly recommend this movie. It's my projected Oscar winner for Best Foreign Film of 2008.

Yikes!

My wife sent me a link to a site filled with pictures of 1970's Swedish dance bands. Was everyone this ugly in Sweden back then? What's the deal?

Is the middle guy sitting on the guy in gold's leg?


Skip's sax playing is getting everyone in the dancin' mood, except Bjorn.


Benny freaks me out. And Andreas' hair is NOT real.
Nice outfits, Teddy Boys!
