I love it how they try and hide the fact that it's a foreign film by having no speech in the trailer. Looks special, though.

Saw this last November in New York, so glad it's finally getting a UK release. Can't sing it's praises highly enough. Go see it!

I've already got the film on R1 DVD and that's an old trailer. You fucking dolts.

That trailer kinda tries to sell it as something else though, something more horror/thriller-esque, which I don't think is right - the film I'd say it was most similar to is Twilight (which this is way better than, despite Twilight being actually pretty good), couldn't they skew the marketing campaign closer to that audience?

This movie is VERY special. A shot through the heart (and you're to blame) for modern horror. Add this movie to REC and I think we may have a (foreign) horror renaissance. Avoid the inevitable remake like the plague.

Major disappointment :( - 11/3/2009 3:37:03 PM

As a huge fan of the book, the film version was a major letdown, it gutted the original source material to such an extent that some of the most important elements are totally missed or never investigated. It looks fantastic, has excellent performances from the two young leads but, despite having a screenplay by the author, they've managed to make a diluted version of the book with it not even feeling like a greatest hits of the book! I await the US remake with interest because there is still a great adaptation of it to be made, it's just a damn shame that this isn't it! Also, it seems to be getting rather a lot of hype, and I think many will come away wondering why, as it skips from scene to scene with very little narrative flow. If you do like the film, please read the book and see what should have made it in there. Plus, I noticed yesterday that the author's 'Handling The Undead' is now available in the UK.

Went in with low expectations, but knowing many claim it to be a cracking gem, but I came out feeling it was interesting, but lacked anything of substance. Light fluff for the most part, and I couldn't help but think of those horrible Twilight trailers they kept playing in cinemas in November, exactly the same idea, and there's a good reason I missed the American version. Though the actual American remake should be somewhat interesting.

Still, it's not a horror film, it's a comedy drama, that's light on substance, and horribly overrated, I've seen far better films in the last few months, The Wrestler, Role Models, Watchmen, Synecdoche, hell, Punisher beats this up easily.

Like snake-eyes says the R1 dvd is out and so is the region free blu-ray which makes more sense to get rather than waiting another month for the cinema. Likewise Taken was out in the UK in Oct. at the flicks and Jan on disc, yet in an unknown reversal only just came out in the US at the cinema 2 weeks ago. Therein lies the problem with cinema and disc. Steven Soderbergh said a couple of years back that all the hype is given to the theatrical release and minimal given to home video and why should the public remember 6 months down the line when the obvious thing to do would be release at the same time or a couple of weeks after on disc WORLWIDE. A guy i knew said copies of Dark Knight were sat in boxes for 10 weeks at the HMV where he works before release. .....

Ah sweeeeet, i loved the book and that trailer very much makes me want to see this. I am hopeless at watching (supposedly) scary films, however, when one truly makes me shiver (The Orphanage) i do love them.

McQueen, there is a remake ALREADY!?!?!

Saw this in Denmark a couple of months ago. Loved it! A very very very very good horror film. Actually it is on my top 5 of all time horror films.

Trailers rarely convey the true nature of the movie... - 12/3/2009 11:47:39 AM

It really bugs me that movie trailers seem to cater towards whoever the studios think the biggest demographic of potential viewers will be. I guess that's the business. But having seen LTROI, it is all those things the text in the trailer claims it is, a modern masterpiece, sublime, beautiful, heartachingly poetic etc. So why does the trailer make it out to be some kind of straight-forward, vacuous, art-house horror flick?? Pitched right, pitched as a true representation of what LTROI is REALLY like, the trailer might have attracted a larger audience. This is a truly magnificant, and genre-bending, film!

Half way through the book now and well worth it. From the snippets on the trailers etc it looks like they're doing a good job adapting, though I agree with the comment re them focusing on the shock angle in the trailers. but it will be thoughtful as well! looking forward to it.
