Tackling bullying, or exposing how to cope with bullying or curb its impact? Not at all. A vampire friend will never, in real life, kill the bullies in the school swimming pool. It might be a lovely picture, but it's not great.

Admittedly, I haven't seen the American adaptation of Let the Right One In. I seriously, seriously can't imagine it being in the same damned universe as Twilight, though.
That's has to be like saying that 2001: A Space Odyssey is a lot like Starship Troopers.
