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".
维瑟米尔战力简直崩坏，十个艾瑞汀可能都不够他打。猎魔人只会简单法术而不是近战法师，导演编剧都是门外汉。
与原著设定有很多不符合的地方 不过依然是一部非常优秀的动画电影
画的不错，但是没看过原剧和原著，感觉上就是个无头无尾的故事，不怎么样
啊啊啊啊维瑟米尔太帅了，BGM很有游戏的感觉，好好看！
8/10 终于看到了维瑟米尔老爹的故事。重回充满魅力的天体交汇世界；直球剧情，简单粗暴、黑暗血腥；情感线非常动人；与游戏版很相像的音乐风格；借助动画的表现形式，战斗力被史诗级夸张化；依旧是悲剧、无奈、复杂的宿命感故事；总会出现新的怪物，杰洛特...
没玩过游戏，直接看动画。感觉为了节约预算还挺潦草的，怪物完全没有细节，也没有独特的技能。女反和男主的关系也不深入，信任还没到就反了。打得也没那么精彩，不怎么样。
制作极其精良，画面音乐都是一线水平。就是有点不对味，猎魔人的战力很迷，故事也改成了纯美式套路剧情，“邪恶政府研究秘密武器，最后超出控制，被正义的军人发现，大义灭亲拯救世界”看过无数次。剧情深度不足，仅仅是讨论了金钱和堕落，各族间的争端排外主题没有深入，更不用说对“命运”的表现了。猎魔人的形象没有立起来，他们的职业前景、所处位置、个人的内心挣扎、对国家种族的态度、信仰均没有表现。女术士的角色背景也没有深挖，很单调的一个形象，介乎于站得住和战不住之间晃悠。最后没想到杰洛特是个小吴克
没看过原作，单就本片来说观感不错，打戏流畅，作画也漂亮，角色的命运也不拖泥带水，和日式风格截然不同。
危情夫妻勇斗三恶徒，剧情设计不错，亮点是各种意外环节。拄拐老爷子最为关键和牛逼。
猎魔人无脑粉丝参上，哪怕是ppt我也会打五星
“非我族类，其心必异”。回忆太多，反转太仓促。
7.5分。老爷子维瑟米尔的青春岁月，以及凯尔莫罕的毁灭之谜。故事拍的很有味道，无论是猎魔人还是术士都有好有坏，各自犯了错，也都付出了血的代价。打斗场面异常精彩，最后以手换首真的是决绝的选择。小杰洛特竟然是个光头？真的没想到~~~
可惜瑕疵在动画动作打击感略差
事实证明，只要拍的好大家也就没那么介意吃书不吃书了。把那种选谁都是错的无奈感拍的这么到位，可以说是巫师味儿十足了。
There will always be another monster. 啊这个画风。超爱BGM和歌。甚至觉得剧版的搞成这种动画形式的也不是不可呀！
哈哈哈哈哈，你想杀我？我还想杀你呢？太巧了哈哈哈哈哈，没想到需要搏杀的彼此还是要靠一致对外来解决婚姻危机，好笑又讽刺
对世界观 背景 主题做了成功的叙述 观影体验也不错 最大的惊喜是Illyana 被狠狠地塞了一口狗粮 所以说Geralt你为啥秃了哈哈
第一次接触这个题材，感觉还不错，反正都是宗教降魔，中西同理，代入感就好多了。
剧情上应该更充实一点，节奏把握得不够好，不过总体完成度可以，比今年很多合家欢动画电影好看。
