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".
小孩子天真可爱浪漫，大人的生活无趣平淡鸡毛蒜皮，那点温情真的没法打动人
可能文化差异吧，我觉得有这样的邻里很可能一个小区都会阵亡。
都别做爱了，保存一点体力抗击新冠病毒吧！！
亲情戏篇幅稍多了点，但是还挺让人感动的，孩子很可爱
法国抗疫真实写照！用温暖又温馨的画面呈现！影片开头，鼓掌的一幕，把人拉回了一两年前，法国自发每家每户每晚站在阳台为抗争在一线的医疗工作人员鼓掌的画面记忆犹新又似真非真，疫情还没有停歇！我们还要打起精神为了彻底摘下口罩的那天努力！ −−−08/11/2021巴黎
目前为止，最好的国产网络电影，也是最好的国产电竞电影。游戏场面高度还原，叙事流畅不拖沓，第三幕调动了几乎所有的视听和叙事手段，成功制造了情感上的燃点。虽然不玩儿手游，但也数次破防。
如果这是真实的法国疫情生活，怪不得总是控制不好，方式不科学，隔离更是无效，作为一部轻喜剧看个乐呵就好了。
挺好笑的。如果未来Corona消失，那对那段时期也算是一种纪念
深夜看完这部电影，回想起了去年在法国的隔离生活，颇感唏嘘。电影把视角聚焦到普通人的隔离生活上，没有过多描写疫情的危急和残酷，更多刻画一种复杂的温情。法语片名叫8 rue de l’humanité，这是巴黎一栋公寓的地址，一群不同阶级不同生活背景的人们因为隔离不得不相处在一起。家庭成员之间的矛盾，住户和住户之间的摩擦，让人抓狂，但又充满了生活的力量。人们渐渐放下偏见、互相包容。影片里也有淡淡的讽刺和一些法式浪漫，最后结局很好哭。适合心情压抑的时候喝一碗鸡汤
funny and heart warming
虽然它缺点很多，非常非常多，但是优点更多。仅仅“拍的好看”这一条就能把所有的缺点覆盖掉。最离谱的是身为一部网大，它基本秒杀了所有网大同行，又能秒杀95％以上的院线同行。年度十佳有点悬，二十佳应该没问题。一时之间我不知道是我魔怔了还是电影圈魔怔了
-她是你的女朋友？
笑中带泪 温馨感人 疫情之下 没有人是一座孤岛 新冠爆发已经快两年 封锁 隔离 口罩 免洗洗手液 都变成了常态 人类依旧渺小 stuck together
全片笑点频出，但插科打诨全都穿插在主要剧情当中，几乎没有浪费一秒。
新冠疫情是当前社会影响人类生活的元素，疫情流行下，人们的生活受到各种的影响，很久没看到这么好的法国喜剧片了，两小时的内容，导演设定了具有代表性的各类型角色，在不同场景下的情绪反应，主场景是公寓楼，公寓楼里上演着疫情下隔离状态，整部剧情以人性为底线，记录着惊慌迷茫混乱生存隔阂理解包容互助的信息，用法式喜剧的方法，给观众笑中带泪的体验。
游戏画面制作精良，确实不错要夸夸。现实人物剧情什么玩意，这也太拉了。这么大人了带着孩子，整天缩在家里打游戏，连房租都交不起了，配为人嘛
苦难疮痍之中的笑声。喜欢这种的疫情喜剧片，结尾房东先生放飞了太太养的小鸟，那些停留在原地的生命被记住、被延续，不再有目的地。
看完后感觉还不错，影片不止是说游戏，借助游戏在说，梦想，奋斗，亲情，资本，讽刺了网络，和你一起开黑的可能是个大叔或者小学生，也说出了游戏的本质，只因现实诸多烦恼，所以才想进入游戏逃避那么一二刻，可终究还是要回归现实等等，除此之外还略带一些梦幻，但最后还是回归了现实，漂亮姐姐去国外，学区房涨价，所经历的一切恰如一场游戏一般。
导演将这场隔离生活，拍得温馨感动，又充满趣味。这部电影就是一部疫情里的鸡汤片，有关隔离生活的温馨小品。
剧本很弱，小孩的演技好过所有人！片头和美女队友的人设基本算照搬韩国电影《被操控的城市》。资本，只是一个在当下的媒体被炒烂的词，在这里词的背后并没看到什么意义，很空洞！没有任何买谁卖谁的逻辑，只是这样设定就推动剧情了！韩国版在暗喻方面的格局则要大很多！而且剧情跌宕起伏，扣人心弦！要看真正斗智斗勇，小队成员各自发挥所长，对抗城市/资本背后的力量，还是看韩国电影《被操控的城市》，虽然是四年前拍的，时至今日技术使用的观感仍不过时！
