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".
以前以为恐怖片里警察是智力最低的存在，这部片怎么把主角的智力都拉低了…
在线。最近在线三部。又是一天之差就出系统评分。一看Havana Rose演员表排这么后以为是配角。眼睛瞪得像铜铃。一组镜头分别切到四个人的神态，我以为都是坏人。拉尔斯反而是心善那个。狭小的空间，却有新奇。最后好像表示一切都是想象，破坏意境，本来想四星。
剧情确实一波三折，但是有一处情节感觉确实不太合理：黑人的妻子为啥一开始没认出小女孩？
在Women Power影像中 dig more fresh out :-) neat and clean，暗红色的楼宇亦即食人洞穴。upsetting and gripping indeed.
当「食人禁忌」也如同一种「网红」，其本质不过是新一代的招摇撞骗的载体，外加上「女性主义」的受苦与反噬，是最好不过了。
看完后劲很大，这部血腥程度和生吃有一拼，前半个小时营造的恋爱氛围和后面的囚禁反杀形成极大对比，结合最近的现实很难不让人代入，太绝望太窒息了
特写不错，色调不错，女主好好看啊，前半小时和后半小时还可以，中间无聊
冬兵竟然演这么个电影，然后之前从来没有get到他的帅，这次get到了，最后有点无聊，没想到几个婆娘战斗力这么猛，尤其那个黑的，更没想到冬兵下体受重伤还这么能跑，片子确实令人心理不适，女导演也够变态的，反正还能看。导演水平一般
故事拙劣，充满了导演自以为是的符号和象征，廉价地让人频频出戏。第三幕可笑的打斗，让人嗤笑。

长夜风雪交加，五人小站躲避。
许多灵光闪现处也掩盖不住整体的平庸，如果不是塞吧唧的美颜撑着就更没意思了，闲来无事用来看个乐呵还行，毕竟塞吧唧被爆x的大场面还是特别值得一看👀
女主血真厚啊，订书器(？)还是第一次在惊悚片见，意外的好用啊！老保姆反转的不错，人性的裂痕果然充满了金钱！
从Tinder到新鲜，站在上帝视角吐槽女性恋爱脑真的没啥意义，就好比最近的新闻你去吐槽女人晚上不要出门不要穿太露，一个性质。片子很好的一点就是你能很直接的从女性视角看到nq吃人社会各种现状，特别是那几个配角男性角色刻画的也很好笑但无比真实。最后还得是girls help girls。
感觉不够血腥暴力啊，女主得救要感谢闺蜜和杂志。比较失望
血腥又不够血腥，惊悚也不太惊悚，最后girls help girls的主旨也在节奏突然加快的结尾没有彰显出来，使得全片尽显平庸。
孤儿
总体上说来，情节略有些无聊了，不管是明喻还是暗喻基本上能给的都给了。以至于后期看到那些反转的时候惊喜不足，而且节奏较慢。但还是共情了一下下，毕竟这很活生生。
帅哥靓女，密室反杀，爽就完了！短评里那个艾米汉莫的年度十佳真的别把我笑死！p.s.真的有必要和亲朋好友约定一个暗号，类似I love you, I love you more.
后劲不太足 但我真的好爱这种B级片啊哈哈哈
