PSA: LET THE RIGHT ONE IN on Netflix Watch Instantly With Original Subtitles
Earlier today I was bouncing around Netflix adding titles to my Instant Queue when I noticed LET THE RIGHT ONE IN (review) as an offering. Once the 360 finished streaming an episode of David Attenborough’s THE LIFE OF MAMMALS (get on Attenborough if you’re not already, btw) I set out to see if the Netflix stream used the dumbed down subtitles still currently on retail DVDs and BRDs. I only did a spot check, but from what I could discern the Netflix stream, a service free to almost all but the most minimal of subscribers, used the original, context keeping Swedish subtitles.
I actually returned my Blu-ray of the magnificent film out of protest, so I find this highly amusing. Has Magnolia begun printing and furnishing the new discs? Did Netflix correct the issue themselves? No idea, but as far as I’m aware, streaming LET THE RIGHT ONE IN from Netflix in HD is currently the most pristine way to see the film in America.

Yikes. Outside of TCM everything is modern. Have you not seen any Lucio Fulci films?? Ruggero Deodato?? Umberto Lenzi? Love your site, but this list was a little weak.
I’ve been trying to find the right combination of words to google for years. I saw this flick and though horrible, it stuck with me. Didn’t one of them get taken and the...
I am disappointed that DVD to the Stepfather did not include deleted scenes that were seen on TV. Some of these scenes included Stephanie investigating the burnt car her counselor was killed in Susan walking to...
I like what you said about wishing the story could go on and offer some more explination to all the torture. I watched this movie and it felt like a two act play. It could have ended with Lucie and been a short story, or it...

This is one time where I love being wrong!
Wow, thanks for letting me know this. I have friends coming in from out of town and I want to show them the movie(and then maybe the latest CINEMATIC TITANIC)but I wanted to make sure they had the same experience with the film I did.
I still couldn’t hear anything on the Netflix version. I know I need the subtitles, but it’s nice to hear the actors’ inflections. It’s as if the dialogue track was gone but there was music.
Netflix on demand stream of this has some serious problems. Once I watched it with only one channel of audio. Another time, the supertitles were all jacked….bummer since I obviously love this movie.
