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".
刚开始的反转夫妻互杀还有点意思，后来一致对外血浆横飞了就比较中规中矩了，反而是最后的结局最好玩。
成人喜剧的皮，血浆片的底子。血浆版史密斯夫妇的评价不妥当，夫妻互杀戏被简化得太厉害，越狱犯入侵的重头戏却过于饱满，填塞了很多撑时间的无聊戏份。日后有翻拍版请务必把血浆和笔墨用在夫妻对手戏上。
屎尿屁血浆炸到不行，剧本比较厉害，演员也很敬业，看到后面觉得卧槽还可以这样操作，牛逼，以及挪威也是战斗民族啊！！！
标记当天就看完了，抓马爱好者必备影片，反转不牵强，不断插叙也很符合网飞风格。血浆浓郁预警，除此外是补不错的趣味电影。（P.S.那片森林和大字时间也太像《去他x的世界》了
前半个小时铺垫太长了，还以为就相互吐槽为什么而已！去强男主角是真没想到，反套路啊！男主用台球砸晕罪犯后竟然就直接离开了，然后消失这么长时间就从楼上拿一把刀而已，这里处理的毫无逻辑。后半段是完全血浆，然后逼叨逼叨没完，反派死于话多类型！
还没有新意爽感
非常喜欢！！！婚姻故事是装点，更多是拳拳到肉的暴力与我最爱的血浆创意大赏。
三星半，导演的恶趣味弥漫全片，类型之混杂也让我看的一愣一愣的：一开始以为是情侣互害的荒诞喜剧，接下来变成歹徒入室的惊悚悬疑，再变成以命相博的动作片，最后当我以为要以残年老父出现收场变成搞笑亲情剧的时候。。。。北欧人打架真是实诚真就啥玩意都往头上招呼啊。PS：晕血的就别看了。
老爷子一定参加过多年前把战斗民族打跑的那场战役
双方各有一万次机会补刀，但就是不补，就是玩儿
虽然知道是屎尿屁，但也不能爽就完事了呀，前戏乱套，结构无趣，可恨的是连根事后烟都没有，片子的BUG和各位傻逼角色的各种脑残行为已经不是可以随便笑笑说一句“啊呀，没关系，反正是一部爽片。”就算了的程度了，一个反派出门前手里拿着猎枪，出门后竟然用小刀去威胁女主，类似无脑桥段到中后段几乎五分钟一个，极度影响观看，要说暴力、血浆、重口味，那真还差远了。整一个四不像。
被小男人男主气死，老爹纯爷们可惜了，结尾影射好莱坞黑人选角nice
本来还以为真的是讨论婚姻困境呢，从第一股血浆迸出开始，一切逻辑和人物都不重要了，剩下的只有残暴和更加残暴。倒是夫妻俩的市侩在最后一以贯之地保留下来。
所以没有“外人”，就讲不下去“夫妻的故事”
对于女性来说，母亲这个身份很残忍，一个女人一旦成为了母亲，则意味着自我的剥夺，自由的消逝，要想自由地成为自己，则需要经受环境与内心的折磨，很无奈的是，这种困境是无法消解的。这部电影从头至尾给我一份压抑感，不论是从母亲的角度看还是从孩子的视角来分析，这种生活的壁垒是无法解决的，总得有一方遭受痛苦，或者双方都很痛苦。被割裂的自我想要重新拼凑，最终追寻到了自由，可也是身披枷锁负重前行，那份心灵的负罪感，跟随终生。在海边躺下，海浪作棉被，疲惫与解脱潮起潮落，醒来还得接受那份无形的沉重。
快节奏血浆片。北欧人是不是都生活缺少刺激？需要这样连续上劲儿的暴力情节。那个林中小木屋真是梦想中的周末避难所。
前半个小时看得我昏昏欲睡，要不是好奇为什么会到7.5这么高分，我还真坚持不下去。结果后面各种反转，终于把基准线拉了上来，最后小俗套了一下，不过还好。想看的童鞋们一定要坚持看完前半小时，还不能跳，因为有铺垫。挪威语，臣妾是真的一个字也听不懂啊，臣妾做不到啊……
嚯嚯嚯，挺好玩，夫妻双双玩双杀，夫妻双双把敌杀，夫妻双双把家还，团结，紧张 ，严肃，活泼，有时候像蠢电影，有时候像动作片，有时候像婚姻伦理片。
真是一部看完了后对婚姻家庭生活产生美好憧憬的片子。
血腥程度一般，情节推动靠新增人物，主角不知道补刀，随便什么东西往头上一攮就晕，反派死于话多，反转也中规中矩，除此之外，导演还夹杂了很多恶趣味和黑色幽默，我觉得挺一般的，实在没看的，解个闷还可以。
