==Trivia==
# Several tricks were used to create the right sound effects for some of the gorier scenes. Biting into sausages was used to replicate biting into skin and flesh, and drinking yogurt was used to sound like drinking blood. The sound of the children blinking was made by the skin of grapes rubbing together in an almost "blinking" motion. 
# The film takes place in 1982.
# Voted movie of the year by Empire magazine (the first time a foreign language film topped their list since City of God (2002) in 2003).
# (at around 55 mins) In the bed scene with Oskar and Eli, she plays a game of "how many fingers am I using" by tapping on his back that seems somewhat out of character for her. In a deleted scene which was apparently intended to precede this scene, Oskar plays this game with her and she does not understand it (although she does correctly guess the number of fingers). Her version of the game appears to be using different words, as if she cannot quite remember what it was that he said.
# Though the film takes place in Blackeberg, a suburb of Stockholm, the film principal photography was shot in Luleå in the north of Sweden, to ensure enough snow and cold weather.
# (at around 1h 19 mins) The word "vampire" is only said once in the film.
# The title of the film (as well as the novel upon which it was based) refers to the fact that, according to myth, vampires must be invited in before they can enter someone's home (this is shown in the film when Eli asks Oskar to invite her into his apartment). The English-translated title of the book and film, "Let The Right One In," is taken from the lyrics to the song "Let the Right One Slip In" by Morrissey.
# Almost every scene in the movie contains the color red or red/orange, a clear reference to the color of blood, the only food Eli can consume.
# Despite being asked twice by Oskar, Eli never reveals her true age. It is often speculated that Eli is around 300 years old.
# Both John Ajvide Lindqvist and Tomas Alfredson admitted that they do not like or care for vampires.
# Included among the "1,001 Movies You Must See Before You Die," edited by Steven Schneider.
# Lina Leandersson's debut.
# Roger Ebert called the film "The best modern vampire movie".
