If you've read any of my other reviews you know that the most important part of any film is "THE STORY". Part of story is presenting characters that the audience cares about. In "LITTLE CANDY HEARTS" the relationship between the couple is never shown as more than a "friends with benefits" arrangement. Because the woman has yet to share her home with the man, we become suspicious of her, and ultimately we are never given a reason to care about either character. When one of them must kill the other, we just don't care. The plot twist was obviously coming, and it neither surprised nor intrigued us, because we no longer cared.
