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".
前面一直都在想这片为什么有8.3，后面二十分钟明白了。母女关系讲完一层表面的弥补亏欠，还能再反过来讲一次亏欠不可能弥补，这个不新但是挺有效的。真诚最动人，贾玲每一滴眼泪都是发自肺腑。希望女导演们能更类型、更完整地表达情感。
笑点挺多，而且不是段子合集。
真挚的情感是没办法表演出来的。贾玲是在掏心掏肺的展示，演不出来这个效果的。反转设计很巧妙，沈腾乔杉是点睛之笔。
欢乐喜剧人大电影，就这种把小品拍成电影的片子都能卖出50亿，我只能说是因为很多人屎吃多了，偶尔吃到点土就觉得很香了。
贾玲原来也是工人子弟啊……这个大概是拍给我们这些厂弟厂妹的童年回忆吧！太好哭了。
看过小品版，电影版还是没有一包纸也哭完了半包纸，随着贾玲一起哭，在电影院里拼命压低自己啜泣的声音…… #结束的时候场务提醒大家没有彩蛋，催促大家离场。大家没有看完字幕会错过《依兰爱情故事》的。
三星。作为贾玲首次执导电影，它无疑是值得表扬的，能够看到她的真切投入。但是从电影本身的角度判别，它是一部无比中庸的小品式电影。与20分钟的小品类似，人物刻画十分刻板与单一，剧情也如流水账。母女之间的情感简单到令人发指，好像小学语文书上千篇一律的母爱歌颂课文。电影形式有可圈可点之处（彩色与黑白的渐变来表现两个阴阳世界）但多有不够成熟的镜头运用。作为贺岁片不够好笑，作为煽情片不够好哭（至少对我来说）。
8.1分真的太不客观。
虽然宣传在说催泪，但我感觉还是笑点更多。对沈腾的演技又有了新的认识，以前以为他只会演王多鱼那种角色，没想到这回出场还真带着点文质彬彬那味儿。
当一部喜剧在拥有合理的剧情的同时，还能在每一个细微的笑点上都能令人发笑，这部喜剧无疑是成功的。而当一部合格的喜剧+好的创意构思+合理的煽情与深入+春节档，那么这部影片堪称完美。它做到了。
有时候电影确实不需要那么多的技巧，真诚能打动每一个人
笑料是尚可费，感情是真挚的，价值是陈腐的。希望有天母亲不必伟大，儿女也不必长进，也能放过彼此，问心无愧地得到对方的祝福与爱。
搞笑一般般，感动是还行。裤子有一处bug，夕阳西下时裤子已经缝过，但还是没有缝的样子。反转很戳泪点，但后面连续不断让玲儿看到她之前没有注意到的画面，多余又刻意。当然，为了省钱下车，李焕英走在大雪纷飞的马路上，让每个人都能想到自己的妈妈——每一个母亲都是这样，最好的都给了孩子。
笑料设计挺勉强，沈腾加盟也还是不够。讽刺领导那段是华彩。最后的反转很加分，煽情力度略过，但好在情感真挚。贾玲也许无意创造什么奇迹，只求与妈妈的和解，或者说是与自己的和解。但因为真诚，所有人都愿意挺她，希望她能让妈妈高兴一次，好好赢一把。
感觉一般吧，就是哭哭哭的电影，太煽情了，拍摄表现手法感觉也是有些稚嫩，片尾曲不错
有想法但是细节不够。如果一开始贾玲砸下来后张江背着她跑去医务室那一段用长镜头把那个年代的情景展示一下 沿路还是黑白 到张小斐出现了才变彩色我觉得效果更佳。说真的 贾玲对于妈妈真正的印象仅在于第一台电视和排球运动员两件事 抛开这两件事后那些虚构的便显得有点虚 但是这个反转真的有点出乎意料 说到底还是剧本大框架好 还是母爱伟大 别管那么多逻辑错误推敲欠缺的问题了 热评第一说的“你爱妈妈妈妈更爱你”这个主题真的非常无敌！最后因为我个人很喜欢张小斐 所以私心加一星。
所以这就是为什么她看着她眼里总是有泪光一样，因为她认出她来了。
3.5星，前半部分剧情零碎拖沓，让我很难带入，3 星基础分，0.5分打给后半部分妈妈跟小玲一起穿越回去的设计。
得，今年春晚没看，这部超长版小品找补回来了。前面搞笑老套（没笑），后面强行煽情（没哭）。
我觉得贾玲很了不起，真实的爱，观众是感受得到的，这是电影的意义，超越艺术、商业、科技，这是一种情感，比那些前者更难得更有价值。能引发观众如此广泛的共鸣是对电影最大的认可，你说这煽情，我也可以理解，但电影不能光凭借手法和技术来评价好坏，电影背后蕴含的初心和情感更值得称赞。毕竟，大众传媒不代表不说人话，电影也不代表技法大于情感。有的情节和人物没多大意义，客观存在的问题也不用回避，因为小小的瑕疵掩盖不了绝对的成功。（我™最讨厌感动到哭的时候有人在那阴阳怪气调侃有什么好哭的，我笑点哭点都低也不代表我电影素养低，总想着自己标新立异是最幼稚的做法，而且说别人幼稚的人自己也不会成熟到哪里去）
