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".
为了黑木华看的，前半段村子对圭太的期望和他背负着这些东西从而心安理得地隐瞒杀人罪责的矛盾引人思考，如果后面能把这份冲突剖开延伸就更好了，却没想到变成了另一个角度。我很喜欢悬疑剧情，但这部片子的结尾让人感觉无力又无聊。
不知道这部片子在拍什么，但是看完了，画面平平无奇，故事乏善可陈，当舔屏连姆尼森吧
因为一次意外的误杀，导致另外3人的死亡，在“一切为了这个岛”的话术下有多少的私心？最后的真相挺唏嘘的
年初看到推上铺天盖地的预告，还以为是夏日重现+大逃杀like，结果前半就是一股犯罪西部片的味道，虽然跟宣传预想不太一样，但还是蛮出乎意料的。
裸男后空翻简直了哈哈哈，虽然这3d质感实在过于一般我几度想弃，但后面剧情也还可以
演技很好，剧情前半段可以，后半段有些强行反转
两分是因为最起码拍的像部电影。大家看电影只看演员什么毛病，这是广木隆一耶，他有个屁的水平，所以对于电影质量有啥好不解的。
我记得连姆以前有一部片子好像也是这个套路，自己失忆了，然后被人追杀，然后反杀。。。但是想不起来是哪部电影了。
警察不是警察，村民不是村民，想学火车谋杀案，但只学了个岛国谋杀案。其中唯一的亮点也许是表达了浅显的人性，但是你真的很浅。
赛博朋克遗产全在非洲明亮大布景消耗殆尽。
很多细节看得出导演还是不错的，大叔需要名导。
前面看着都还不错，以为是高智商的对决，哪知道结尾主角当了圣母，竟成全了男二，无语。
前半个小时铺垫第一场意外发生的前奏很漂亮，而到一个人的意外成为三个人的意外这之间的转折都足够荒诞又惊心动魄，“一定要守护这座岛”在反复出现之后形成根深蒂固的咒语，但既然是咒语就只能被段术更高的符法来解除封印，而不是变成是由科学的手段来更张。结尾直接反转成个体之私作恶的力量，等于是把前面这场乌托邦实验的数据结果都直接擦掉了，诞生无花果的这片土地不再具有恶之花的宿命性。
说了一个谎就得说几个谎来圆，松ken看饼一家幸福的模样眼神有点落寂时有猜到是他，没认出来伊藤步看到演员表有她有点惊喜，卡司很强，多厨狂喜。
其实本来的设定和情节推进都挺好的，确实被最后的原来只是个三角恋，顿时拉低了高度。演员演技都在线的，因为看到月和L终于又共演了，怎么也得给4星。
2045第一季总集篇，色彩有所提升，但删除了一些细节，其实都不推荐看这类ova
属实不能理解这个故事后面的反转，理由倒是有，埋线不足…有点硬凑的意思….不过人物病态扭曲的心理倒是表现的很充分，比如镇长，看着就不适
年初看到推上铺天盖地的预告，还以为是夏日重现+大逃杀like，结果前半就是一股犯罪西部片的味道，虽然跟宣传预想不太一样，但还是蛮出乎意料的。但确实比起智斗悬疑，更像是掺杂政治元素的犯罪片，中段岛民与男主纷纷合作，只为了保留下男主这全村的希望，结果一回头自家妻子就在劝说“要不要离开这个地方”，就有种之前某部回到中东老家变国王的美剧的调调，用日式岛民乡土做这样的尝试还蛮不错的，虽然看到后半段才意识到他们没有什么特别的乡音。但可惜最后还是有点崩盘，反转来反转去，悬疑与温情元素就好像一边在批判着、又一边在赞颂着这种微妙的传统良序一样，就还是太乱了，表达相互撕扯。不过不知道为什么觉得很适合引进。3.5归4
尼森老头已经打不动了，还要坚持演动作片，精神可歌可泣。这片子想表达的就是警匪一家，最后还得靠稍微有点正义感的警察来私刑。
很久没看文艺片了，这片的节奏让我想到了电影节的展映影片，影片中无花果是希望也是绝望的果实，小岛上如果那天老伯与小伙没有一起出现，那么“噪音”究竟是谁？这座薛定谔的小岛好似抽屉里有一把枪，是的，我打开了抽屉枪确实在抽屉里，那么我永远不打开那个抽屉是不是枪永远不会在抽屉里？饼哥最后10分钟演技真的无人能敌，情绪太到位了！ 另外我太爱这张的构图了 ！！
