Martin (John Amplas), a young man who looks around 20-years-old, boards a train in Indianapolis, Indiana for New York. At night, he breaks into a sleeping car and sedates a woman with a syringe full of narcotics. She struggles, but he tells her not to struggle or be upset because she wont feel pain. After a few minutes, the woman falls asleep, and Martin has sex with the unconscious woman. Afterwards, he slices her wrists with a razor blade so he can drink her blood. The woman bleeds to death in her sleep.
In the morning, the train stops in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where Martin disembarks. He is met by Tata Cuda (Lincoln Maazel) an elderly and hostile old man who claims to be his cousin from the Old World. Together, they travel by another train to the town of Braddock, a dying industrial suburb. They walk to Cuda's large house where he shows Martin his living quarters. Cuda then accuses Martin of being an 84-year-old vampire from his old country. He has taken in Martin because he is family, but tells him, "First I will save your soul. Then I shall destroy you." Martin denies being a vampire and implies that Cuda is merely his uncle rather than his cousin. Cuda then puts up strings of garlic on the doors to his and his granddaughter's room, and then holds up a small cross when Martin approaches him. Martin takes away the cross, and even takes a bite of the garlic mocking these attempts by saying bitterly, "There's no real magic... ever". Cuda tells Martin that he can come and go as he pleases. But he also warns Martin that he will kill him if he kills anyone in Braddock. He also tells Martin to stay away from his granddaughter Christine (Christine Forrest), whom arrives home from her job that evening.
Cuda introduces Christine to Martin, but also warns her to stay away from him. But Christine instead strikes up a friendship with Martin who confides in her about his vampire heritage. When Cuda later confirms Martin's claims to be a vampire, Christine, not surprisingly, refuses to believe either one. She thinks that Cuda and the other members of her family have driven Martin to insanity by making him think that he is a vampire. It is never revealed if Martin really is a vampire, or just a shy and lonely youth with troubled issues. Christine is the only person that Martin gets the courage to talk to. When Christine's boyfriend Arthur (Tom Savini) arrives at the house for dinner, Martin stops talking and backs away despite Arthur's attempt at a conversation. Christine later confides in Martin that she hopes to leave Braddock someday with Arthur, even though Martin points out that Arthur treats her badly and is both verbally and physically abusive towards her.
When Christine sees that Martin won't talk to anyone else, she buys him a phone which he installs in his room. Martin begins to repeatingly call a radio talk show where he describes what it's like to be a vampire. He becomes known on the radio as "the Count" to all the listeners. But the patronizing host (Michael Gornick) thinks he's just crazy.
Martin gets a job at Cuda's grocery store of stocking shelves, hauling boxes around, and even gets to be a delivery boy for some of the customers. One of his customers is a certain Abby Santini (Elyane Nadeau), who becomes taken in with Martin. She is a very friendly young woman who is depressed when she tells Martin that her husband is unfaithful. But Martin still does not have the nerve to talk with her, so she is happy to have someone to confide in with her life problems. Martin phones the radio show host to describe his infatuation with the housewife and senses that she wants to have sex with him. When the radio show host asks Martin if it is a sexual problem that he has involving women criticizing him during sex, Martin replies that he has never had sex with a woman who was awake.
One day, Martin travels by train to outside Braddock to look for victims. At a supermarket, he follows a young woman (Sarah Venable) home to her posh suburban house. He sees the woman's husband (Richard Rubenstein) leave for a long business trip, and Martin decides this would be the right time for more feeding. Martin returns to the house after dark and breaks in through the garage door. But it is Martin who gets the surprise when he bursts into her bedroom to find her in bed with her adulterous lover Lewis (Al Levitsky). After a vicious struggle, Martin jabs both of them with hyprodermic needles with narcotics, and waits for the drugs to take affect. He drags the unconscious body of Lewis from the house to a clump of trees across the street where he kills him by shoving a broken tree branch into his neck and drinks his blood. Martin returns to the house where he has sex with the unconscious woman. But out of compassion and pity, he decides to let her live.
Martin begins to have romantic monochrome visions of his vampire past (real or imagined), where he drained blood from a young woman and was chased through the streets of a nameless European town by a torch-lit mob.
During one Sunday at church, Cuda brings home Father Howard (George A. Romero) who asks him about the possibility of exorcism and demon possession. Father Howard calls upon the elderly Father Zulemans (Clifford Forrest, Jr.) over at Cuda's request. Together, Cuda and Zulemans confront Martin his bedroom and attempt to perform an exorcism on him. At this point, Martin remembers (another real or imaginary flashback), in the Old Country of people trying to perform an exorcism on him, and he flees them. Martin then flees from Cuda and Zuelmas as well. A little later that night, Martin terrorizes Cuda in a children's playground when he puts on a Dracula cape and puts false fangs into his mouth to pretend that he really is a vampire.
One day, Martin finally musters the courage to talk with Mrs. Santini during a routine delivery to her house where he tells her that he's aware of her attempts to seduce him and wants now to have sex with her. After having sex for the first time, Mrs. Santini becomes more depressed for she tells Martin that her husband just left her because she discovered that she cannot bear children, and that her desires towards him are based on sex and nothing else. But Martin wants to stay with her and help her move on with her life. Martin tells the radio show host about his affair with the housewife and that he no longer has the urge to attack other women.
Meanwhile, Arthur meets with Cuda and tells him that he wants Christine to leave town with him so they can get married and start a family. But Christine becomes angry at Cuda when he tells Arthur that insanity runs in their family and he shouldn't consider having children with her. Shortly afterwards, Christine packs up and leaves Braddock for New York with Arthur despite Martin telling her that Arthur is abusive towards her. But her mind is made up. Before leaving, Christine tells Martin that she really has no ill feelings towards him and just wants to make a fresh start with her life. She says goodbye to him and promises to write. But Martin knows that with an abusive and possessive man in Christine's life, she probably won't.
Depressed over losing his one true friend, Martin phones the radio show host and tells him that he's getting "shaky" and wants to go out looking for more victims. That night, Martin travels to a rough crime-ridden area of Pittsburgh and attacks two derelicts in a alley, injecting them with narcotics. He kills one of them by silting the bum's wrist and drinking his blood. Martin is about to kill the second one when a police car shows up and gives chase. Martin narrowly escapes during a long chase on foot which leads from the garbage strew streets and through a local store. Martin runs into an old warehouse where a drug deal is going down. A shootout between the two cops and the three thugs begins where all of them are killed, leaving Martin as the sole survivor who casually walks away from the carnage.
One day, Martin finds Mrs. Santini dead in her bathtub, after she had slit her writs with a razor blade. Martin anonymously calls the police to report the body and leaves. He phones the radio show host one final time to say that he really doesn't need friends or people to talk to for he is his own person. But when Cuda learns about Mrs. Santini's suicide, is mistakenly thinks Martin killed her and made it look like a suicide as he's done before. Cuda walks into Martin's room while he is asleep and kills him by hammering a wooden stake through Martin's heart.
Cuda buries Martin's body in his back garden, while over the closing credits various voices from people are heard talking to the radio show host asking the whereabouts of "the Count".
《脑后寄生怪胎亲哥哥之超能力复仇篇…》才是本片真名吧？主角屠戮整个警局后如同没事人一般，拥抱妹妹，回归家庭的模样，泪目了！这就是famliy的力量？建议复仇者联盟考虑收编下主角，就叫“雌雄双面侠”[旺柴]
是夏日海边的浪花
比起谈恋爱女主与家人在一起的片段更能吸引我，抱住妈妈痛哭太感人了……
好像我的人生一样，总在想会不会突然离开这个世界。
片名和女主在母亲肩头哭泣那段是最佳 整体很一般 但是还是哭了好多次
下半年Highlight预定。气氛营造得太棒，虽然有些地方比较瑕疵但是完全可以被后半段有几处屠杀场景导致肾上腺素飙升的爽感给抵消掉。 【不要看爱奇艺版本！不要看爱奇艺版本！】
就精准押题，没有惊喜.坂口在奈奈面前怎么这么弱啊？手也不敢牵。被甩就趴在地上痛哭。
飞机上看的，到后面眼泪根本止不住，没办法给低分。
日式风 为nana多加一颗星 剧情就普普通通 不过樱花是真美
听名字还以为是坂口健太郎和小松菜奈携手亡命天涯。
？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？这片子整个就好奇怪好奇怪啊，摇滚是很摇滚，招魂还带点儿柯南伯格那味儿，摄像有点炫富，但是最后结尾未免太过草率，控电是咋回事也没讲，另外女主她家哪有邻居啊？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？？
为了小松菜奈。题材剧情从标题就一眼望到头了，没什么太大意思，将就看完了。
还差一点点 的感觉…爱情片却把男女主的感情拍得这么淡，镜头很美，设定很抓眼，dv机、花季、同学会上相遇相恋…但更多的还是对生命的领悟吧，余命十年，也并不需要多灿烂，谈场恋爱，和朋友一起出游，记录每个重要时刻，做到自己能做的事，自我实现，也许这就是一辈子了…btw泪点极低的我这次也没被催泪成功，只有和妈妈诉说的一段比较触及泪点，但也算常规…
最苦涩的不是发现熟悉的温式恐怖气息早已变味，而是时隔多年与他的新片相逢，我也早已是一个已经要暂停好几次处理工作的狗社畜了。这种屏幕内外让人一点点掉血的商业化渗透，真让人感慨啊，原来切身的看见一个导演的波峰波谷是这种感觉，无论是外部环境影响还是灵感当机，这种同步的观影体验还是蛮微妙的。（躺平）好在，我还是被吓到了_(：3 」∠ )_愣是没发现女主和他居然是这种亲密无间的羞耻关系！！噗，脸贴脸观摩版鬼压床，头发丝在脸上滑，还是那个最会玩儿的温子仁。中间宅子里那几段梦回招魂，最后扒头皮那儿我都惊讶居然没剪掉？感动人心。改天要找个特别闲的中午再看一遍，一定要特别闲，窗帘外日晒特别强，拉上帘子制造出阴影和独处屏障，再配杯冰咖啡，精神抖擞又慵懒着看。
在死亡这个巨大的痛苦面前，眼下职场、婚姻、父母所有一切痛苦都变得那么微不足道，人生中的小确幸又变得那么美妙。不能说是不对，就像不能说生命不美好。但那又怎么样呢，不面对死亡痛苦时，其它痛苦依然具体，依然尖锐，依然刺痛着我们，告诉我们生命就是苦与苦的连续。男主演技很好，哭戏很棒，沙苗的演员很可爱，真羡慕这样的友谊啊~小松菜奈很适合演如樱花一样的少女，可惜大部分人不是樱花，只是小花，还要清醒地面对零落成泥碾作尘的过程，这才是人生的真相。
花絮胶片拍的真美，两位演员和场景是视觉享受，剧情就一般
七八十年代意大利恐怖片平均水准 搭配部分卡普空生化氛围感
夜空和你都好美
感觉到导演和编剧的“刻意”尽可能做到“自然”了，尤其女主家表演几乎完美，女主在家里大哭那场妈妈演的又真实又朴实，我哭也是为了妈妈哭。还有两人洗碗那块，很久没在纯爱剧里看到如此细腻的拍摄（我看的都是校园爱演技大根很多连哭都哭不出来orz）只不过致命问题，第一感受不到坂口很爱小松菜奈，但比菅田有村有情感后俩就是演戏再多肢体接触也是陌生。第二为啥把小松菜奈拍的像蜥蜴女孩，眼距宽鼻子大，有一幕特写完全认不出来是她。
前期铺垫太多，给了太多期待，真正看到比较平淡。十年好像很长好像很短，长到我们会分离，短到无法实现梦中的场景。
