CLOVERFIELD director Matt Reeves has joined the fray of directors who are taking on horror remakes. LET THE RIGHT ONE IN, which debuted under its Swedish title LAT DEN RATTE KOMMA IN at the Tribeca film festival, is about a boy who falls in love with a girl who happens to be a vampire.

The film, which comes from a bestselling book by John Ajvide Lindqvist, won the best narrative feature award at the Tribeca Film Festival in May and the remake rights were quickly snapped up by Hammer Films. Reeves' recent comments on the movie lead one to believe that it's a horror tale with a heart.

"I was immediately taken by both the novel and the Swedish film of 'Let the Right One In,' which are just so unique," Reeves said. "I found them not only terrifying but incredibly moving, and I am very excited about adapting them into an American context."

When the film will come out is not yet known but Magnolia Pictures will release the Swedish version on Oct. 24.
