The Modern Vampire
A comparison of “Let the Right Ones in” and “True Blood”

The image of the pale, bloodsucking vampire first became engraved on the western psyche in the late 18th century thanks to works like Bram Stokers “Dracula”. However, the popularity of the Vampire eventually waned. In recent years, the mythology of the Vampire has experienced a massive resurgence. So how has the modern Vampire changed to appeal to modern audiences?
In this essay I will be comparing Swedish alternative film “Let the Right Ones in” and American TV drama “True Blood”. These modern Vampire media deal with the subject matter in very different ways. However, they both use the metaphor of Vampirism to explore a deeper social concept.

“Let the Right Ones in” is a film that focuses on the life of a boy in his early teens growing up in urban Sweden. In contrast with more traditional films that deal with the issues of growing up in a modern society, “Right Ones” takes a morbid tone, and is highly violent and sexual, with an 18+ rating. The protagonist is a quiet child, who is constants bullied and abused by a group of classmates. He plans, or perhaps just fantasises about revenge in secret, training with a knife and keeping a set of newspaper clippings on violent crime. However, he apparently lacks the courage to either speak up about his difficulties or live his dreams of violent murder. He suffers in silence until meeting what appears to be a young girl, who he later learns is a vampire. She helps him to gain courage to stand up to his tormentors, while her aging partner quietly murders the townsfolk by night to feed her.

It's not an epic piece, it only needs to go to 500 words.
