‘Let Me In’ Viral Arrives at My House, Can You Crack the Morse Code?
This afternoon I received a postcard from the Otowi Station Science Museum in Los Alamos, New Mexico. I called and confirmed that Hammer and Overture Films’ Let Me In was filming in the area. The only horror project that I’m aware of that filmed in that location was Oren (Paranormal Activity) Peli’s Area 51. I expect that this is the first of many viral goodies. What was interesting was what was written on the card — Morse Code that I literally just spent 45 minutes trying to crack. I was hoping to pop on here with the reveal, but have failed miserably. The coding is too close together making it quite difficult to break. Below you’ll find the scans, maybe you’ll have better luck? I’m counting on you guys to help me out, otherwise I might go insane. The Matt (Cloverfield) Reeves directed Let Me In arrives in theaters October 1.
I typed it out for you already:

Julia Garner Joins Horror Movie ‘Weapons’ from the Director of ‘Barbarian’
In addition to Leigh Whannell’s upcoming Universal Monsters movie Wolf Man, Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel) has also joined the cast of Weapons, THR has announced tonight.
Weapons is the new horror movie from New Line Cinema and director Zach Cregger (Barbarian), with Julia Garner joining the previously announced Josh Brolin (Dune 2).
The upcoming Weapons is from writer/director Zach Cregger, who will also produce alongside his Barbarian producing team: Roy Lee of Vertigo and J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules of BoulderLight Pictures. Vertigo’s Miri Yoon also produces.
The Hollywood Reporter teases, “Plot details for Weapons are being kept holstered but it is described as a multi and inter-related story horror epic that tonally is in the vein of Magnolia, the 1999 actor-crammed showcase from filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson.”
Cregger was a founding member and writer for the New York comedy troupe “The Whitest Kids U’Know,” which he started while attending The School of Visual Arts. The award-winning group’s self-titled sketch comedy show ran for five seasons on IFC-TV and Fuse. He was also a series regular on Jimmy Fallon’s NBC series “Guys with Kids” and the TBS hit series “Wrecked,” and was featured in a recurring role on the NBC series “About a Boy.”
Weapons will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures.
