Horror Remake Let Me In Delivers a Coded Message in this Clip

Matt Reeve's (Cloverfield) Let Me In is an American remake of the 2008 Swedish horror film Let the Right One In. Both films are based off of John Ajvide Lindqvist's novel "Let the Right One In." Reeve's latest was shot in Albuquerque, New Mexico and the film follows a bullied young boy who meets a mysterious young girl. This is an intimate story of a lonely vampire and the first coded trailer for Let Me In can be seen below. Near the end of the clip Morse code is tapped in to the screen which translates to - Help! Enjoy the clip inside.

The film's official synopsis:

"Let Me In, tells a terrifying tale about an alienated 12-year old boy named Owen (Kodi Smit-McPhee) who is viciously bullied by his classmates and neglected by his divorcing parents. Achingly lonely, Owen spends his days plotting revenge on his middle school tormentors and his evenings spying on the other inhabitants of his apartment complex.

His only friend is his new neighbor Abby (Chloe Moretz), an eerily self-possessed young girl who lives next door with her silent father (Richard Jenkins). A frail, troubled child about Owens’s age, Abby emerges from her heavily curtained apartment only at night and always barefoot, seemingly immune to the bitter winter elements. Recognizing a fellow outcast, Owen opens up to her and before long, the two have formed a unique bond" (Fangoria).

Release Date: October 1st, 2010.

Director/writer: Matt Reeves.

Cast: Chloe Moretz, Kodi-Smit-Mcphee, Richard Jenkins, Jimmy 'Jax' Pinchak, Sasha Barrese, Chris Browning, Cara Buono, Elias Koteas, Seth Adkins and Rachel Hroncich.

I didn't like Cloverfield and I am also a fan of the original Let Me In but I'll still see this.
