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".
主旨是喜欢的人不喜欢自己，爸妈给不了家庭温暖，哥哥也不让跟了，想学画画也不让，全世界与我为敌😰
这个狗死孙子为何不愿好好照顾自己奶奶，就是家里太优裕了，惯一身臭毛病
这是我见过最生猛的奶奶：满嘴脏话、怒怼神父、杯子扔孙子、曾用刀扔儿子，两周两箱松子酒兑水喝、一言不和就给人一拐子、指导孙子的着装调侃他没有女人、每次她拿下垂的眼睑看着任何人的时候我都能想象出年轻时的她是多么独立和优秀。
中岛老师还是帅的，俗气到看看头的一分钟能知道结尾
一开始我的心情是 她好酷 我希望我在她那样的年纪也可以有那样的阅历和money 后来就是 她的一生应该算圆满了吧
奶奶好帅～我也想那样离开这个世界，带着晨曦
我也想轰轰烈烈地过完一生，然后有尊严地死去。
早班车前的通宵恋爱那几个镜头很可爱 kenty帅帅
½ gin, ½ water and a squeeze of lemon.
有些镜头真的很好，拍的比一般纯爱片高级多了
樱花璀璨却易逝，早衰症少女与摄影少年的爱情一样，有梦想的人才是纯粹的人，前半段多么的灿烂，后半段就多么的无奈，横亘在爱情中间的往往就是很多个无可奈何，我第一眼看见你就深深的被你吸引，我也很庆幸你向我提出了约会的邀请，双向的奔赴才是最美，anyway，曾有人深深的喜欢过我足矣。
没想到2022年了还能看到这种得了绝症不给恋人说，反而搞消失玩冷战，骗人家自己心另有所属强行分手的大烂梗，图什么！结果他们两个，没有一个快乐，烦死了！（女主可爱可惜露脸时间不多，男主悲痛大哭的戏看得我直皱眉，本来挺好的悲伤情绪，被他仿佛小拇指被狗咬的演技全打断了！
人靠衣装马靠鞍，消费主义告诉你要对自己好一点，有机会就要改变自己改变龟毛。这是一个自己拯救自己的戏码，青春期赶上各种外界因素采用极端手段后“幸运”获得加一条命的机会，各种符合年龄的操作一点也不感时间别说100天，你就是给他10天都能给你整明白。少年不要封闭自己好好锻炼身体，遇到呛声的上去就是干才对。最后操场上下来跌跌撞撞你挨到地下室是怎么回事，特写得让人只注意男主得睫毛真……长
（不是否定企划本身）我可能更想看无灾无病的普通物语。
很科幻，有点像《假如猫从世界上消失了》里与恶魔对话 拉扯
电影全程都在我的意料之中 但是谦杜的演技真的很好啊
剧情有点老套，但是还是稍许治愈。人生只是一场漫长的寄宿生活_20220619
有些狗血和普通，只是稍微呈现一段爱情的程式，这种电影就好像定制的，有些人会很有感触，有些人完全不会
新西兰制造的祖孙电影，但除了兰普林的存在之外乏善可陈。题材本可以是演员息影的绝佳告别之作，但这个剧本远不够好，怡情小酒而已。以临死之人回首青春的遐思静静回顾昔日影像，电影角色离经叛道的传奇一生和演员波澜起伏的银幕历程互为镜像造就恰如其分的「老去」终点意味（也因典型气质毫无挑战），影片刻意追求的感伤多半来自她的魅力赋予想象，此外每个情节和意象都是陈词滥调。平静求死的渴望和继续生活的勇气在最后的日出落下收尾音符。这次你素未谋面，令人生畏的祖母不会不由分说就拿高姆刺测试你的潜能，而是直接往你脸上砸玻璃杯，你说I got expelled, 她回以I’m proud of you. 没有一处转折不能被预料，然而还是会被乡村风光和自然演绎勾动的情绪触发泪点，葬礼上的Haka和火光边的拥舞让人泪流不止。
替松本穗香妹妹开心终于接到了是女主的电影，记得之前都是配角，前面看她真的是被可爱乖到!没几分钟就想感叹她在这里面好乖啊! 造型好好看~ 不过剧情来说真的是不好不坏的纯爱电影，满满是粉色樱花感，好想去看樱花啊~
