What critics compared Martin to

Let the Right One In poster
Before that, you have to go all the way back to George A. Romero's 1977 Martin for anything approaching a good vampire movie.
Like George A. Romero's horror classic Martin (1977), this Swedish shocker mixes vampire mythology with adolescent melancholy, and just as the earlier film was rooted in reality by its run-down Pittsburgh locations, this one draws heavily on its working-class setting, a drab suburb of Stockholm.

That's all the connections!
