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".
不错的励志电影，体育励志，underdog，总是能激励人心
what a story...Defy all the odds...
这个拍法，我看第三部还不如和寂静之声3联个动，看看老爷子打怪兽这才带劲呢
华叔的传记片必须期待一波 美橄的电影早已经看的差不多了没得看了需要新的来满足 不知道电影能不能带给我第一次看华叔橄榄球人生那一集的感动
美国人最喜欢灰姑娘，也算是美式自信的一种自证方式。7
好一个又可恨、又可怜、又强悍、又脆弱的死老头！瞎眼都能一打10，眼睛睁开了还不得加入《复联》？遗憾的是没有了第一部的紧张气氛，只能当成惊悚动作片来看看。结尾的双重反杀有点意思，男二真是惨啊，被兄弟出卖就算了，还被自己的狗出卖，被自己的狗出卖就算了，还被自己的…… ！！！ 哎不剧透了，你们自己去看，宇宙第一衰男，又好气又好笑！
全程跟着揪心，以恶制恶、以暴制暴真是永远看不腻，老头眼盲了还能这么厉害，这身手智商速度力量太棒了！父母的禽兽不如，小女孩最后砍掉母亲的手腕，杀死亲生父亲也是够猛！反转再反转，要是老头没死的话应该有第三部！
第一次真的看 NFL 就是 09 年超级碗红雀打钢人 Larry 和 Warner 的悲剧英雄形象深入骨髓 所以这片马上就看了 拍得扎扎实实 挺好 | 和 Warner 在公羊一起拿下超级碗的总教练 Dick Vermeil 也是故事特别多的人 我刚发现从前看的马克沃伯《Invincible》 就是他更早之前在费城提拔草根球员的故事
反派升级，剧情升华，但也容易神话主角，还是点到即止为妙。
电影重点是家庭上面，永不放弃自己的梦想。关于橄榄球场面少点，不过不影响。电影还是很感人，很励志，百度了主角的人生经历，电影呈现了很少，他的励志经历还有很多的！

七冠的布雷迪是传奇，华纳是个传说。这部电影像是把前些年科特华纳的纪录片翻拍了一遍，前面铺垫很多，后边节奏有点太快了，像是要赶着把故事讲完。七分是比较公允的分数，但是作为一名盼了这部电影十几年的老球迷，我还是选择打高一点。
没看过第一部，剧情挺无聊的，小萝莉演技意外得不错
草根理智的主题虽然很普通，但作为传记电影算的上好片。
1.亲生爹娘制毒贩毒还抢心脏，养父杀人强奸不给自由，当孤儿很不错。2.老头子装瞎，能一个人摸到陌生旅馆的电闸。3.猫能报恩，狗也行啊！！4.你看，在美国自由最重要，最终小凤笑得好灿烂！Freedom
煽情高潮的部分稍有一点浮夸，其实真正打动人的反而是低谷时雪中徒步走几英里差点买不起汽油相互扶持那些点滴生活
复仇剧，少了第一部地下室那种kinky的成分，也少了密室的紧迫感，老头还是很猛，但这个小姑娘有点讨人嫌
虽然制作尚可，但2还是落入了俗套，变成了一部普通的虐杀片。
这一部好像只屏了十分钟呼吸吧？没有第一部这么令人窒息，几场杀人戏的设计还是很不错，扣眼珠梦回权游😢小女孩真是令人喜欢不起来，但不管怎样已经是个人近期看的最爽片了。
小制作影片，虽然是作为系列第二部，可与第一部基本没有什么相关联系。
