Sink Your Teeth Into The First Images From The “Let The Right One In” Series
Showtime’s series adaptation of Let the Right One In is picking up momentum.

EW has just shared the first images from the series via Instagram. Set in New York City, the series stars Demián Bichir, Anika Noni Rose, Grace Gummer, Madison Taylor Baez, Kevin Carroll, Ian Foreman, Jacob Buster, and Nick Stahl. Stahl stars as Matthew in Let the Right One In, as “a former soldier and fiercely loyal fixer for the Logan family, whose clean-cut, mild-mannered exterior belies a savagery beneath.” The [original] film is about a relationship between an isolated bullied boy and an isolated lonely girl, who we learn is a vampire.

A Family Finds Itself In Danger In ‘Speak No Evil,’ From Shudder & IFC Midnight
Shudder, AMC Networks’ premium streaming service for horror, thrillers, and the supernatural, and IFC Midnight announced today the theatrical premiere date for the highly-anticipated psychological horror Speak No Evil. In Speak No Evil, on a vacation in Tuscany, two families – Danish and one Dutch – meet and become fast friends. Months later, the free-spirited Dutch family extends an invitation to the more conservative Danish one for a holiday weekend getaway at their countryside home.
