7 Rubbish Subtitles From Let The Right One In


We’re geeks for subtitles at totalfilm.com.

Sometimes, film companies 🧸get them spectaཧcularly right – watch Jason Goes To Hell with the subs on and it improves the experience ten-fold.

But sometimes they go hideously wrong. Icons Of Fright have noticed tha♉t there’s a huge disparity between the quality of the Let The Right In theatrical subtitles and the US DVD subs, sometimes to a hilarious degree.
