2008′s hauntingly beautiful “Let the Right One In” was a sparse masterwork from Swedish director Tomas Alfredson. Well, the inevitable American remake is on its way, now known as “Let Me In,” and as the trailer makes abundantly clear, it’s directed by the same guy who made “Cloverfield.”

Alfredson made a vampire film that was striking more for its emotional vulnerability than its gory thrills; here’s betting that Matt Reeves won’t have the same deft touch.

“Let Me In” opens in October.
