Oskar, a bullied 12-year-old, strikes up a friendship with his new neighbor, the mysterious and moody Eli. Initially reserved, a sweet romance blossoms between them. But a dark, macabre secret revealing Eli’s connection to a string of bloody local murders threatens everything.
Swedish director Tomas Alfredson’s modern-day vampire story—the best of our era—is rapidly becoming a new arthouse classic. It remains remarkable: a wintry, heartfelt horror tale of loneliness and kinship, equally shocking and tender, with a deathly final embrace.
