Magnet picks up Swedish Vampire flick

Date:

Magnolia Pictures are pumping their new label Magnet Releasing with tons of content – the newest picture to join the slate is a  coming-of-age vampire flick from Sweden. Winner for Nordic Film Prize and Nordic Vision Award (Cinematography) at the Göteborg Film Festival, Tomas Alfredson’s directorial debut Let The Right One In (adapted from a novel from Swedish author John Ajvide Lindqvist) follows a bullied, adolescent boy who falls for a girl who may just be a
vampire.
