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".
全片没有一句台词，基本上也没有任何剧情，而仅仅是依靠定格动画的视觉效果来呈现和表现时间、空间、生命、宇宙等浩如烟海的内容。我觉得这是属于一部实验类动画，他的主旨特别晦涩，绝不仅仅是依靠稀奇古怪的造型来表现张力。整个画面既诡异又血腥，但又看得出经过特别的精心设计。不出意外的话该片口碑会两极分化的，或者"封神"，或者下地狱。
看的时候还是欢乐的（如果影院看可能会有更好的爆米花效应），但也还是对情节/设定安排有些无语，看完之后想想更觉得是小孩子乱闹（博士那句这就是为什么我没有小孩的精准吐槽）。某人从环里淡定地走出来“哇”地内心感叹还是记忆中的样子。还有当你试图fix别人总是会有consequences
若干年前，彼得·帕克因为“不救人”害死了自己的叔叔；若干年后，蜘蛛侠因为“救人”失去了自己的婶婶。未来什么样，我们无法预测，但我们能做的只有尊崇自己的内心，尊崇内心的善良。
4.3 结尾完全推翻重写挽回了一些好感，前两个小时表现无论是剧本逻辑还是场面设计都像是在过家家，即使放在超英电影行列之中也是末流的，心思全都放在如何在自以为的幽默中无限贩卖情怀了。
国家机器内部一日游。下层生物张嘴吞食上层机器的排泄物，清扫者被碾碎成需要清扫的脏污，偷偷潜入的刺客被开膛破肚，反叛的被同化为系统的一部分，成为它的养料，成为它的血脉，成为它命运般的起始与开端。
也许只有经历过克制住愤怒的过程，才会成长为合格的蜘蛛侠？当然还有自我牺牲，虽然这样选择独自面对也不一定是好事。不过这种没人认识的情况应该不会维持很久吧。
其实我只看全第一代后两版都没看过，然鹅出于求全心理把这部看了毕竟威廉达福又回来了（and真tm会演）。这种么就跟假面骑士大电影那种情怀片差不多啦三人聚首挺逗的别的不要太较真。看后无比同情奇异博士，对比之下这才是负责任的成年人，而且好像要为小蜘蛛捅的篓子背大锅了..?
安德鲁加菲尔德，我恨你，你为什么要回来演这个破片子还继续该死地可爱。
场景极多，有几个还相当宏大；风格也非常极致，兵人、废土、怪物、工业朋克等等。看得出来是用心了，定格动画不易。这东西与其说是在拍电影，不如说是在搞手工。当然做得确实很精巧。大概想表达的几个隐喻倒是也能看出一点，但还是要说我看不懂，无法沉浸。
20211121le。重口味版的史云梅耶。
强忍不适看完。人类荒诞而又疯狂的历史和未来？
情怀大牌打得不错，但是整个剧情真的挺无脑的。第一代蜘蛛侠变老了，一代比一代低幼向，这一代就是个卖萌的花瓶。绿魔才出现几分钟，就把整个光环全夺走了。不比不知道，老戏骨分分钟KO小鲜肉。
三代蜘蛛侠同框，发生在这样一部只能靠贩卖情怀的爆米花电影里，嚼之无味，弃之——也不那么可惜。主人公圣母爆棚，妥妥的一出东郭先生与狼。“能力越大责任越大”不断炒剩饭的阐释，让蜘蛛侠逐渐脸谱化。然而，他除开感动自己，却感动不了任何观众。唯有初代绿魔，拉风依旧——你是唯一一个坚守初心的大坏蛋！
三代同框的情怀拉满！！！虽有点圣母，为了小善而酿大错，但在经过前几部电影的铺垫，以及这一部的教训，到了结尾的时候，荷兰弟版的蜘蛛侠终于摆脱庇护，蜕变成为了真正的蜘蛛侠。
剧情太拉了，绕了半天还是回到了开始，这哪是什么超级英雄。 7/10
美术道具，配乐是真好。故事是真病态。不过想想，人类历史上的各种病态，倒也是拍得真实吧。人造地狱或真实地狱。都一样
国家机器内部一日游。下层生物张嘴吞食上层机器的排泄物，清扫者被碾碎成需要清扫的脏污，偷偷潜入的刺客被开膛破肚，反叛的被同化为系统的一部分，成为它的养料，成为它的血脉，成为它命运般的起始与开端。
加菲说自己没能救成Gwen时我就知道会让他去救MJ了，当然我本也以为会让托比去救Ned来着。To the spidermans in my 2002, 2012, and 2022。
思路亮点，没想到能搞到那么多版本的蜘蛛侠。从一个超级英雄，到超级英雄联盟，再到跨维度跨时空的超级英雄平行重叠，原来这就是漫威世界的内卷呀。
蜘蛛侠还是成功保住了最惨英雄的称号。整部戏说不上很好，主要还是三只小蜘蛛的回忆杀部分令人回味，三个人回忆自己最惨时刻真的令人感动。作死的想要“净化”反派的剧情真的很让人无语，也许这正符合高中生英雄的幼稚形象。还是第一代蜘蛛侠马奎尔看着最令人舒服
