Emperor Chiao pointed me to these two phenomenal posters for a vampire movie called Let Me In. I suppose the title references an old myth, stating that the vampire isn’t allowed to enter your home, unless you invite him in. I believed this vampire trend was so 90′s. What’s up with all them Twilights, True Bloods, Vampire Diaries and similar girlish crap? Anyhow, this movie is a remake of a Swedish vampire film, Let the Right One In. Chiao looked forward seeing the American version, but it totally slipped his mind until he stumbled across this movie poster, which by the way is totally awesome! I still don’t fully understand the illusion, but Chiao mentioned:
If you squint your eyes, the illusion is revealed.

the illusion in the poster is a humans heart..
I see now!:D
a face for the first one, and i kinda saw a skull in the second… well the second is definatly some freaking head shaped thingy??
I see a blond with big tits, I think is quite erotic
Agh… I see both of the illusions, but I read about the movie on Wikipedia and now I want to see it XD But I get super-queasy with gory stuff, so I don’t think that would be too good…
I’m pretty sure its supposed to be that when you squint your eyes it looks like a white little vampire bat curled upside down.
The first one is a rabbit, and the second is a swan if you tilt your head to the left. (anti clockwise)
I see a bearded devil o.O
2nd picture:
when I squint very tightly, unti I can only make out the brighter colors, it looks like a man with his left arm raised above his shoulder. While his rigt hand is hanging low, down towards his legs, and he’s taking a step foward with his left leg. But as it seems, he’s missing his left hand, and his head.
I squinted so hard until I couldn’t squint anymore, I see nothing. Now my vision is all blurred!
In the first without squinting my eyes I could see the heart, but squinting, i could see the rabbit or two people faces one getting closer to the other. The second one I can see a kind of devil mask…I don’t know…with a big nose and open mouth
It’s a guy face from side view. If you watch the movie this vampire girl is living with an old man whom she befriend since she was little. The guy aged but she didn’t-vampire :p Interesting movie though, not girlish at all…. I liked it WAY better than Twilight -_-”
to me it looks like the first one’s shrinking a bit, but on the second one if you tilt your head to the left and squint it looks like an old man… That’s a guess.
The first one looks like a bunny to me when you squint and everything.
I personally think the first one looks like an evil rabbit sitting on a head and the second one looks like well…….. i dont know, but the old man sounds reasonable. I still think its the rabbit though!
the top one when i squint i kinda see the shape of a human heart.. i dont see the old man in either of them :?
If you squint in the first one you see an old man.
The red fades away so on the bottom one it looks like shes been cut up
i don’t want to sound homo but.. her knees look like tits.. as in boobies.. or boobs
I think she ‘spells’ VAMPIRE with her body, starting with her legs. ‘V’ = leg and lap, ‘A’ = leg and lap, ‘M’ = both legs and lap and so on
If you stare at the top picture long enough it looks she’s a beating human heart. But the blood in the bottom one makes it stop.
its a heart
The background fades to black on the first one… I thiink maybe he was trying to get it to look like a bunch of blood when you do squint your eyes. Does that make sense?
OMG I see the freakin old man in the first one…But i dont see nothin in the second one… Its a profile; her hair is his beard/goatee thing… where her top arm folds at the wrist is his eye.. her bottom knee i guess is his other eye, and i guess her feetare like his hair style (sorta)…
The first i dont think is anything but the second one it looks like the old mans face in the both eyes on each side of the feet :)
if you turn it upside down and squint your eyes you see her eyes blank and her teeth are all fangs, also if you dont put it upside down and squint your eyes you see her staring at you…creepy
took a sheet of paper and covered the image. Could really see the illusion. Top picture is profile of innocent looking fellow. Bend in the knees is the nose. Go from there. Bottom picture is more gruesome looking with mouth open and bloody looking.
Not the best illusion ever. But it is kinda neat. I didnt really see anything no matter what i did though. XO
… The first one looked like an embryo to. The second… [shrugs] Didn’t look like anything to me.
i keep seeing edward for some reason
if you squint your eyes, you will see a face
I think when you squint the first seems to move slightly like a beating heart in the second it has stopped, hence all the spilt blood around it
I personally think it looks like the girl looks more vampire-like. She looks more pale and at times I can see fangs. It’s kinda like when you squint your eyes, she turns into a vampire
