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".
这是什么狗血的结局啊？？？？
只是惊讶于一个穆斯林国家能拍出这样展现人性之复杂多面的电影……
悬疑铺垫还不错，富二代编剧靠偷拍别人身体部位过去灵感。还压制大家告发。有些演员出演过《突袭》
前三分之二，我都感觉这是苏类似于“浮云蔽白日”那样的压抑人生，一度压抑得让我想哭。她贫穷，孤独，被人设计陷害，还要屈辱地录下视频公开道歉。在这世界上，她所拥有的一切，一度都背弃了她。如果她有一点小聪明，可能会接受那对富有夫妻的施舍，不再“闹事”而读完课程；如果她在当众录下道歉视频以后，选择忍气吞声，低头做人；如果她在关键证据被毁，发现施暴者的权势巨大之后，选择了放弃……可能黑暗永远就是黑暗，光明再也不会到来。
排出 覆盖 掩埋。排出 覆盖 掩埋。排出 覆盖 掩埋。排出 覆盖 掩埋。
反映校园内偷拍行为的，本来有个不错的故事框架，但导演却不满足于只是一个简单的故事
大蠢片（褒义）。其实是卡普拉式神经喜剧，冒险部分在110分钟的片长中有些过短了，但老掉牙的动作桥段依旧有效。
两个冲动的小孩的恋爱，两个人都没有安全感，也不都相信对方
这是一部纯爱片却能引人深思的电影。
每日一催：男女主什么时候现实在一起 :)🙏🙏🙏
实在是……没看完，我都不太记得为什么我会有这个电影……不太理解到底在讲什么……就感觉反复吵架+上床+和好，为啥？没别的事做了吗？从中间开始我就在看手机了……不过女主还挺好看，插曲啥的也不错（两颗星的理由？啊哈哈哈）
无论是剧情还是人物都相当拉胯，女主以拉胯的技术试图挽救自己的清白，结果只是以卵击石菜鸡互啄，而结尾的处理虽然说有一定程度创新但又少了几分力度，导致电影的逻辑情感都有些奇怪
挺开怀一笑的典型爱情喜剧电影。布拉德皮特死得那么干净利落我是没想到。小笑点还挺多，且不尬。
为什么上一辈的又开始作妖了，没完没了，即使这样我也依然觉得hardin帅死了
。。。真的不爱看这种了竟然还有第四部我是真的不理解。。这除了做爱还有别的吗😅做爱然后吵架接着和好又做爱无限循环😅小东西挺有意思 我倒要看看第四部怎么拍😃
故事寫得挺扎實的，一看就知道是有大量準備和思考的作品。而且題材貼地、合理，是可以令人刮目的印尼電影。
就是说，编剧很爱虐男主。女主人设真的有问题
we are all fools in love.
那老头一开始我就以为是爸爸，到最后真的是爸爸
恶人飞机落地自助小吃飞满脸，老子《道德经》大师营救脑浆都有思想的味道，板凳飞车面膜疗伤论悬崖停摩托的危险性，装甲车不忘装吧台哈利波特留大胡子依旧小屁孩……反类型夺宝无脑爱情喜剧，挺好笑
