HORROR FANS in for a myocardial test with this film adaptation of John Lindqvist’s novel.

An anemic fable of vampiria set in the dark world of Kinder Bueno kids, LTROI handles bullying unforgivingly, the subject scored with apartmental gore and endearing romance.

The result? Surrealism, gritty as 80s “pop”-litico snow.
