The Monster Pod - Let Me In




Aaaallll byyy myyy-seeeelf.  Don't wanna be...aaalll byyy myyyself.  Seriously, loneliness sucks.  And while there is a vampire in Let Me In, the real monster is crushing isolation, even amongst family and peers.   So, join me and Lucas as we tear into Let Me In and Let the Right One In like a swarm of cgi cats.  Please...please join us....we don't want to be alone.....

As usual, it should be noted that this is more of an in-depth discussion of the film and not necessarily just a "review."  There are some major spoilers throughout the second section of the podcast.  So, if you have not yet seen Let Me In or Let the Right One In, go watch them first and then come back to get our analysis of them!



We hope that you enjoyed our analysis of Let Me In and Let the Right One In and that you keep coming back for more.

Prism Pop Up Gallery is a one day juried event showing the varieties of color in art! By collecting vibrant and striking pieces from talented artists, the gallery hopes to create an immersive experience for artists and patrons alike. All artwork will be organized by color, such that the patrons experience all of the Roy G.
