This award-winning movie is a Hollywood remake of an award-winning Swedish movie, and for once, Hollywood didn't mess up the adaptation. Set back in the 1980s, a young boy is having trouble with some bullies at school. He is very lonely, and is relieved when a girl his age moves in next door. However she is reluctant to get to close to him, and he observes some rather strange things about her. It turns out that she has been twelve years old for a long time, and her lust for human blood will be used to his advantage. The film is more about childhood and friendship and family than about vampires, so don't expect anything along the lines of Twilight.
116 minutes, No persons under 16 (Language, Violence) Detective/Mystery, Drama, Fantasy, Horror.
