There are not many movies that truly amaze me these days. All the better for it that the Toy Story Trilogy came to such a great ending. I already loved TS 1 & 2 and wondered how Woody and his gang could keep raising grown-up issues such as dependancy, loyalty and love?

Remarkable for plastic toys that just happened to move and talk.
I must confess that occasionally I truly LOVE a good horror/sci-fi flick on days like... well Christmas Eve.

Låt Den Rätte Komma In (Let The Right One In) from director Tomas Alfredson is not only an atmospheric bloodsoaked horror movie of wonderful effects and photography but a timeless story of the beauty and brutality of childhood.
