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".
不错，有点小瑕疵（新生代老毛病）但是整体还是可以的，比TV强，人人都可以变成光，但是光没办法独自闪耀这句话很圈我，让我想起迪迦ED的歌词“即使力量再强大但也无法独自一人战斗”“即使再怎么追求未来但只靠一个人也无法达成”
Belle adaptation du roman de Balzac, et belle mise en scène de Paris d'antan. Cette capitale de désir et de pouvoir, toute forme d'élégance n'est que trompeuse, la naïveté n'est qu'un pion du jeu de manipulation. Mais cette satire sur les critiques est malheureusement toujours valable à ce jour.
来了个新队长，以为很叼，没想到是反派，还变身邪恶特利迦，最后被干死。
整部片看完了，感觉还算是中规中矩，比tv的观感好了很多但称不上非常出色。存在一些明显的瑕疵比如反派口口声声要拯救地球却像神经病一样到处破坏，某些角色的表演用力过猛等等…个人认为目前豆瓣评分还是打得略高了些。举个例子，平成三杰时期的剧场版评分差不多也是8分左右，而特利迦这部远远不能与那时相媲美却能得到8.2的高分，实在有点不能理解。
感觉只有贝贝剑和伊格尼斯还算正常，其他人都是输出全靠吼，反派满嘴希卡利，而且赛雷布洛操纵了哦斯超人关我奥特曼N什么事.jpg
我觉得很重要的一点就是，他本身就是基于二十年前不错的剧本改编的，能改编成这样真的是情理之中，但是TV就是纯粹的乱改编，所以基于和TV的对比，就先给个五星宽容宽容
2. 谦虚是一个有趣的品质，当你觉得自己拥有了这种品质时，你也就失去了这种品质。
虽然要带着前辈拯救一下口碑，但是也算成功触底反弹了…
武居打戏进步巨大！！！让人对下一步的德凯放心了前期剧情有点云里雾里，后期抒情老套路多，而且反派复读机有点怪怪的，但完美致敬了迪迦，很多高燃战斗和名句确实不错，吊打TV水平
难得看到一部根据十九世纪名著改编的作品，影片展现了那个时代巴黎光怪陆离的生活。令人震惊的是，那个年代的记者、文人，与今天的几乎没什么两样，只有衣着有些变化，其做法、想法、手法都与现今一模一样。影片整体说拍得有些四平八稳，但对年代的还原、服化道的制作，都很值得一看。
比TV版要好，要好得多。真正意义上做到了一波三折，结尾引出德凯奥特曼，希望拍得比特利迦好。
“孤身一人是无法闪耀的！”
看了一半，还行。
2.0 什么特效呀，怪物一看就是充气的廉价玩意
有点虎头虎身蛇尾 得到闪耀的力量后太快结束了战斗 D4也没有发射 higher fighter歌曲没有放出 虫子逃走导致泽塔tv白干
前半段的繁缛没能撑起来这么久的期待，但幻灭的塌陷却如此迅猛确实又让人有一丝惊喜。看了眼法媒凡以“critique”为主要生计的在一众评价不算太好哈。文学版盖茨比，整体也不如马丁伊登。又犹豫了一下还是没舍得多给一颗星。
遥辉有点丢人（）
“孤身一人是无法闪耀的！”
一般，比Tv强点，倒也没别人吹的那么好。泽塔就像工具人，赛雷布洛经过泽塔一战居然还能从军械库跑出来，编剧能不能带点脑子？
‘每个人都可以变成光，但孤身一人注定无法闪耀。"在个人英雄主义充斥超英片的时代，这种积极正能量的价值宣传值得肯定。本片在致敬的同时又对致敬对象的主题进行升华。
