"Let the right one in" is a masterpiece, maybe a teenager might be bitter towards the romance/horror. It's a non-gay twilight haha. But it's great... in my opinion.

Are we talking about the remake? The remake made it more romantic, but the original was just about two lonely kids who became friends.
I tend not to like american remakes of movies because of little changes like this. there was no need for it at all. And if I remember correctly, was the remake not released within a year of the original? I think that's testament to people's unwillingness to try anything unfamiliar.
"This film's really good but people wont want want to watch it if they have to read it. Let's completely remake it in English so we can tap that market".
In response to a few of the other points raised in here. 28 weeks better than days??? really? weeks was mediocre at best. Pretty much a standard run of the mill big budget zombie movie. Days was tense, like, really tense. I've watched that film a bunch of times and I still get a bit 'on edge' sometimes.
Devil's backbone was another astonishing movie. I went into it not knowing anything about it, so when the horror angel came in I really really dug it.
Wickerman, Elm St, Omen and Carrie... They're classics. That's all I can say about that really. I think as a horror fan they're a must. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy them all, and my liking of them isn't based on the fact that I should like them, I just don't think I've ever met a horror fanatic that doesn't like them.
Films like Underworld and sleepy Hollow I like, but I can understand why a lot of people don't. They are both very typically "hollywood". Zombieland though, I thought was amazing. It had a perfect balance of comedy and horror. Also, Woody Harleson was astounding in it. That man should have won an award for that performance.
I don't really have many movies I really hate to be honest, apart from remakes (as this post and others I have made all over the forum will probably make clear). Think the last one I physically hated was the Elm St remake.
and finally, the Hills have eyes remake was better??? Behave :p
