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".
节奏好慢，但很能get到两位女生之间的感情，最后手绘那段竟然看哭了😢
她爱她，而她也爱她，只是不知道自己爱她，后来发现了，但她已经不在了。
本来想给更低的星，但看了另一部日影后，发现这部还不错了，虽然还是闷。
不再归来，困于海中央，长发变短，吞饮着孤单，破晓前蓝沉沉的天空下，我对你的怜惜和不舍溢出了海平面。就像想象里的那样吧，再慢慢靠近我，结束我这长久的奇异的冷静。当海向岸边的人奔腾而来，当你选中了我，不再离开我。
这，算喜剧吗？反正喜剧的笑点不多。范大明白5万，让孙越找明星录视频，孙胖子转手2500约于谦，然后于谦再扒皮，哈哈哈哈。一般吧，恩，上映也是网上上映的，而且 最后的版权归腾讯，对辽。一看一乐的事。这个刀爷，把自己全部的积蓄都要用在对别人的弥补上了。还以为是个深藏不露的富翁呢，原来是为了赎罪的普通人。那个男不男女不女的唱歌的，到底叫二手玫瑰还是二手月季啊，他的歌，在那种环境下听，还行。
近在咫尺的唇
两人第一次去看海的时候，说看到海内心会有平静安心的感觉（插播一句我也一样）两人探讨到安心这个话题，面对真奈关于什么是安心这个问题堇给出了一个深深地爱着你的，把你放在第一位的就是安心的答案，对比后面堇说拿起摄像机会觉得平静，以及二个月之后再见，堇说真奈的家有安心的感觉（此刻觉得堇说的不是真奈的家，而是指真奈本人有让人安心的感觉）对于堇来说，摄像和堇，就是让她感到平静与安心的事，两样她最喜欢最爱的东西，就像看到了海是一样的感受
是至死不渝的爱情，
人物过于扁平化，没有实感。按常理来说，宋晓峰这个小人物，从一个被人看不起的小保安到突然入手三百来万的小富翁，你说他不飘，现实吗？就算是人物真的傻或者善良之类的，也没有铺垫，太工具人了。
明明是讲两个直女的友谊，偏偏要搞得姬里姬气，就很莫名其妙🤷♀️
就是说很像我的论文，开头好好的中间突然开始东拼西凑……把中间从店长突然去世开始的有半个多小时掐掉的话可以打五星。中间掐掉或者只稍微渲染斯人逝去的伤痛就接堇的视角最好了。堇，让我好心疼好心疼，咱们东亚姛就是青春中最晦涩最酸痛的部分，虽然一些bgm很难不是说在看鬼片。还有最后能回应“深深地，深深地…”就好了——印象深刻的地方，其他觉得比较好的地方是真奈看到堇拍的录像自己又坐到那个位置上去。她真的给人那种天塌下来了都不会很慌张的感觉，就像堇说的“你永远不会那种谄媚的笑，你比自己想的更强大。”四星给滨边美波，多多搞拉拉(^з^)
野心确实很大，这场葬礼其实就是对东北这个行将就木的经济体的巨大缅怀，筹备过程中的所有行为都是对东北刻板印象的细致拆解，但是行至中端一切都不可预知的崩塌了，原本步调紧凑的节奏失控，演化成混乱的人物大杂烩。太可惜了。
开头的动画让我想起回头变成盐柱的故事。女性之间隐秘拉扯的爱情还有灾后人们对逝者的怀念都是很好的题材，这个效果有些可惜。
有些笑点，佳佳的片子还是有点自己的态度。只是演员们脸型全都越来越像乔杉了。佳佳的跟班叫刁彪的演员，长相太烦人了。两星半
刀爷是孤儿吗？三百万你干点什么不好，愧疚就一定要寄人篱下，去打工不用查身份证，不用签合同，老板半年不知道员工的名字，你心里踏实吗？
这节奏不是一星半点儿的慢
叙事比较细碎，也很细腻。漫画很美，美波也很美。等反应过来的时候已经泪流满面。
给老婆找来下饭看的，槽点很多，还好能提供些笑料，算是完成任务。
6.5
全片唯一的亮点和笑点就是二手玫瑰那句：“就这点钱啊，我最多唱一宿”!
