    It had an american remake, I didn’t know it was originally a swedish movie : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naked_(2017_film)

    But if it’s like Let The Right One In and the Millenium trilogy, the swedish version must be better, I’ve got to watch it

    And to anyone thinking it’s european smug /anti-americanism, no I actually enjoyed some american remakes like True Lies, but the swedish Millenium trilogy with Noomi Rapace is great, just as the original Let Me In / Let The Right One In

    • American remakes generally suck. The same could be for remakes in other countries; I can’t speak to that, but the French original La Femme Nikita was incredible. The American remake sucked. The British original Who’s Line Is It, Anyway (TV) was great; the US series stank.

      I think that’s just the nature of remakes.
