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".
本粉丝看得很满足。婚礼开始，葬礼为尾，新生作为结束，在这座充满故事的庄园进行电影拍摄也是绝佳选择，默片有趣地走向了有声片。几段感情的拉扯，群像的刻画，各种呼应，最终granny的和Barrow的离开也是唐顿的某种结束和新的开始。
唐家屯承载了太多，老夫人安详的离世应该画上一个圆满的句号。
"stop that noise,I can't hear myself die"
7分。已经完全忘了第一部讲啥。从婚礼开始，到葬礼结束。一次死亡，一次新生。再加上两条故事线交叉呈现，本片比第一部更有电影感，而且剧情也更有意思。一边是从天而降的别墅，六十年前的一段情，老爷的身世之谜，另一边是为了钱勉强答应电影剧组租楼拍摄，女星傲慢又粗俗，拍到一半拍不下去了，庄园里的人帮助导演完成拍摄任务。除了那个让人惋惜的离去外，整体还是欢乐祥和的。看得很快乐。只希望他们有钱了真的能修修屋顶。
讨厌编剧，写死xxx 古迪子缺席 小茶杯勾引玛丽这三点真要命
马修古迪没空来拍了吗。依然是絮叨的日常，仿佛统治阶级和底层亲如一家。
英国的《红楼梦》，虚构的人物身上，折射大英帝国的风土人情。每个人的脸上都写满了沧桑。十几年的唐顿庄园，其实已经早早不用去构建故事了，只需慢慢的等待发生就好。
9.0
庄园的人一开始厌恶在庄园里拍戏，
非常英国，结合老太太的法国隐秘往事和电影业从无声到有声的变革，讲了一出好故事
看电影的感觉真好，短短两个小时，却能把我拉回过去的时光，缓慢的，一集一集追剧的日子，把2022年的世界隔离开来，像过了几年一样漫长。 Downton Abbey可以永远不用变，永远在那里，永远old school，一板一眼。婚礼开始，葬礼结束，死亡又新生，这就是我曾经的热爱了。ps,古迪子这次连酱油也不打了。
唐家屯的精彩故事继续上演，看的出来故事情节比第一部更加「抓马」，有很多耐人寻味的片段，比如说，老太太年轻时的艳遇，大老爷的身世之谜，导演和大女儿的隐晦感情，还有可能被删减的大管家和男演员的爱情故事。像是看了一部英伦风格的家庭伦理剧。而本片以三女婿的婚礼开场，最后又以老太太的葬礼收尾，设计精妙，也从中感受到了悲喜两重天的过往人生经历。整体来说，还是挺不错的，剧情画面bgm都是无处挑剔，感到遗憾的一是老太太的离世，再一个就是消失了的大女婿马修了，您再不回来大女儿要跟着导演跑路了！希望下一部能回归，并且戏份多一些吧。
每一次的开头都做好准备，但是老太太在众人环绕下安然离世的时候还是猝不及防红了眼眶。新生命的降临，新时代的接替，我们不断在和过去告别。
为了让它更像一部电影，在情节结构上做了有限的努力：从婚礼开始、以葬礼结束，从默片时代到有声电影时代。我知道它不是一部好电影，但在老太太离世的段落还是哭得泪流满面。从第一部开始就在极力渲染的离别情绪，时至今日，似乎必须正式向那个以优雅高贵的典范与惯例为日常生活方式的时代告别。黄金时代的落幕，像是在唐顿庄园的外墙遍洒余晖，而漏雨的屋顶则要伴随着新生活的改变，被填补，被覆盖。祝福遥远的人和生活，在看不清未来的New Era.
感觉更像是一部主线无关的番外，虽然唐顿跟随世界迎来了新的时代，但还是希望能继续保持优雅平和的气质，而不是在纷纷乱乱的新世界中丧失自己的步调。
老太太终于完成了历史使命，退出了历史舞台，剧情没有跌宕起伏，还是电视剧好看
删减了将近六分钟，说是有一条LGBT线，但有两个地方我也感觉不连贯，一个是老太儿媳妇得病那里，一个是电影男主演去找那个侍者
唐家屯是个美好的地方，总是乐于助人，也就总能收获美满，富贵温馨，祥瑞快乐，同时极富感染力，让每一个生活其间的人都被同化感召。本片最令人遗憾的是老太太终于走了。
6.5/10 " 距上次在影院里看唐顿庄园故事的银幕首秀已经过去了三个年头，这批集结在一起的最具代表性的英国演员们在这部电影续集中仍然保持着他/她们的独有的魅力与风韵，并通过接踵而至的""人生大事""赋予了这段极具时代精神的本土家族史诗一种更绵长的生命力。片中开篇的婚礼与结尾的丧葬形成了奇妙的对照关系，一面是告别欢乐宴席的坦然，一面是迎接忧愁寂寞的释怀。在庄园建筑悠长历史投射的阴翳之下，这份""人情""显得温暖而珍贵。
最后，男男CP（管家和男演员）给我惊喜！给我好好在一起！！！哦对，配色也很好看，经常是橙蓝，饱和度也高
