You might think that you don’t know a lot of Irish horror movies but you either didn’t realise certain films were made in Ireland or by Irish filmmakers or you’re not watching the right films! Whether it be the comedy from 2005 Boy Eats Girl or folky Hammer movie Wake Wood or the terrifying Corin Hardy movie The Hallow or the ridiculously fun Grabbers. There’s plenty for horror fans to enjoy and the pun in the title will tell you that Let The Wrong One In is the latest horror comedy coming from Ireland.
It tells the story of Matt, a teenager who suddenly discovers his older brother, Deco, has become a vampire. He then has to decide whether to help his brother or the very, very, opposite and kill him.

To say less is more is an understatement of epic proportions in Conor McMahon’s latest, Let the Wrong One In.
The FrightFest strand of Glasgow Film Festival each year is always buzzing with excitement. It’s very much its own character with a distinct feeling to each screening that is totally different to the rest of the festival in general.
So it comes as no surprise that Let the Wrong One In opened the FrightFest as it seemed to hit the right notes for the crowd.
But sadly it very much feels like just a festival film.
The setting is Dublin where we follow Matt (Karl Rice) a supermarket worker confronted by his estranged brother, Deco (Eoin Duffy), who isn’t quite himself. Suffering from far more than just a hangover his new fangs and bloodlust are evidence of his recent nightclub encounter with a vampire. With it comes...

"I want you to teach me how to kill vampires!" This looks like crazy ridiculous fun! Showing this weekend at the Glasgow FrightFest is this indie horror comedy from Ireland titled Let the Wrong One In, a riff on the classic Swedish vampire indie film Let the Right One In. It first premiered at Fantastic Fest and Sitges last year, and also played at Screamfest. A young supermarket worker learns his older brother is a vampire and must choose whether to help him or slay him. Matt may be a sucker, but when his brother becomes part of a growing vampire problem in Dublin, he's faced with a dilemma - to stake him or not. It's described as a "wonderfully silly and ridiculously rude horror comedy for Shaun of the Dead fans." This stars Karl Rice, Eoin Duffy, Anthony Head, and Mary Murray. It does look funny, but almost too absurd.
