It was announced Thursday that Dark Horse and Hammer Films have entered a partnership to create a series of graphic novels and comic books.
Despite having an extensive catalog of 1950′s-1960′s “Hammer Horror” films, the companies revealed their first project will be based on Hammer’s new and upcoming thriller Let Me In, a remake of Swedish vampire movie, Let the Right One In. Dark Horse Comics is no stranger to the horror genre either, as they have acquired rights to make comic book adaptations to some of our favorites films such as Aliens, and Predators — needless to say, I think we can expect some good stuff to come in the future.
Not too much about the storyline has been revealed just yet, but the companies announced it “will incorporate some of the film’s characters and mythology with some fresh themes.”
Let Me In follows the story of an alienated 12-year-old boy (Kodi Smit- McPhee) who is bullied by his classmates and neglected by his parents. After meeting a mysterious new neighbor however, life begins to change. Chloe Moretz (Kick-Ass) will portray his neighbor, only friend, and unsuspecting vampire.
