weak vampire

After watching the perfect version of "Never Enter", about the Swedish version, I don't want to make too many boring comparisons, whether it's a less fresh male lead or a pure and cute little loli. In the US version, the vampire Abby is almost completely set as a girl, which restores the intricate story itself into a simple bloody and even a little aesthetic love story, turning the pedophile blood collector into a love rush The old man of his life, the castrated Zhengtai vampire becomes the innocent Lolita who drinks blood, the weak and autistic little boy becomes the self-inflated and timid little coward. The changes to these settings, I don't think there is any problem, make the originally obscure and complicated story clear.
The presence of vampires in this film is unlike any other, with no blazing speed and flowing hairstyles, and no muscles or supernatural abilities to explain. The Swedish version of him (notice him) is even a emaciated, emaciated child who sleeps in the fridge during the day and looks out on the lonely street at night. There is no power of any kind to hunt, to fight, yes he is almost cursed! !
Turning into a girl-like appearance to deceive love, sympathy, and blood for survival, the reason why it is so difficult for me to label the Swedish version of "Don't Enter" is "love", and the hero who travels with vampires is just a A prey who has become a new tool...
But unlike the Swedish version, the blood collector (old lover) has changed from a pure prey to an old man who is loyal to love, and finally loyal to love and died of love. And when the male protagonist finally tapped "kiss you" with Morse code on the long-distance train, what we saw was just another lover who fell into the quagmire of love.
