Let Me In is a riveting thriller from director Matt Reeves (Director of Cloverfield) about a seemingly innocent young girl, Abby (Actress Chloë Grace Moretz), who is actually a centuries-old vampire thirsty for blood and carnage. Reeves' brief for all of the visual effects was that he wanted a naturalistic feel despite the supernatural content and to avoid the type of fast cutting and pacing that audiences often associate with the horror genre. I was responsible for converting the slushy on the windshield into CG slush for the car wreck scene. I also had the joy of creating smoke, bursting off a vampire engulfed in flames!
