Lindqvist authored the screenplay for the Swedish film based on the book, which earned top accolades at the Tribeca Film Festival and other film festivals around the world. Let Me In is a genre-busting achievement, Stephen King said of the American film. Not simply a horror movie, but the best American horror movie in the last two decades...Rush to see it today. You'll be able to thank me later.
