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".
浪费金钱，浪费时间，浪费生命，同样都是有关于抗疫的影视，你花钱去电影院看这个，还不如找时间重温去年那个抗疫剧《在一起》中的《摆渡人》和《救护者》这两个故事，看影院里面这群小女孩儿哭的要死要活的，我真觉得我的内心真是凉薄到无可救药的程度了
很朴实但是很真实，有些地方确实转折很大，但是这可能才是当时真实情况，带有一点宿命感，底色有点苍凉
请各位小朋友以以下主题写出一篇语意通畅无错字格式正确的作文：2019年春节，武汉，新冠疫情暴发，人们有的在超市抢购生存货物，有的虽是普通人仍为消灭疫情贡献自己的一份力，有人也在帮助他人中收获温暖，请以“疫情下的人们”为主题写出作文。谢谢导演的答卷让我看了篇视频版作文。
后面虽然很催泪，但有点强行煽情的感觉，里面的bug也不少
历史是最好的记录者，平平无奇的电影，却又泪流不止。
本片真实却不乏感动，严肃却不失幽默，在我们共同经历新冠疫情的难关后，我们能真实地体会到当年那些为防疫做出伟大贡献的各行各业的英雄们的事迹，有你们，我们便有了勇气，有我们国人的众志成城，我们就有了战胜困难的决心！最后以此片结尾的字幕作为结语去祈祷：愿悲伤不再，愿人间无恙！
6.2分 是一部以疫情为背景的暖心向电影，不是部分影迷想要的那种深刻的、纪录片式的疫情电影。不要对我们根本拍不出来的电影有期待。｜从暖心向电影而言，相比一些电影已经算是没有特别明显的大尬点了，但小尬点和令人不舒服的点还是有。｜最喜欢奶奶。贾玲面对朱一龙的各种小娇羞，因为她真的喜欢朱一龙而显得格外真实，哈哈哈哈哈。朱一龙真是适合演白月光啊。那么温柔又有情调的男人只有梦里才有，只有他才配演。他演的叶老师让人感觉很舒服，似乎世界上真的存在叶老师这个人。（只不过后面影片对叶老师捐献器官的剧情的表达方式处理的不好，这是导演的问题，演员已经没有戏份了。）黄渤不容易，如果不是他演，这部分的戏可能会更难看。徐帆和高亚麟这么好的演员实在是被灾难般的剧情给浪费了。王骁，可惜这部戏没有给他表演空间。｜别的不说了。
虽然挺感人的，但是感觉就是为了感人而感人，好像导演在说：你给我哭。
雨中大桥拥抱+高龄产妇。真的好无语。黄渤的part也是。只有老年cp有戳到我。不如看纪录片吧。
再见2021👋🏻
你很难说它是杰出的电影，但生活本身自有其力量
为真实的现实而流泪 但不合乎逻辑和尬的地方实在很多
不太及格啊。 配音口型都对不上，还有很多很尴尬的戏有点失望
蛮感人的，尤其是几次的突然死亡情节，蛮触动的。珍惜眼前人，拥抱吧，就现在！
演员都挺好，剧情没什么说的，电影始终是电影不是现实
在2021最后一天的时候，很需要一部这种片子（骗子），伤痛已经够多，此刻温暖就好！多一些温暖也很好！我只是好奇，为啥我看的是普通话版？不过在武汉放不标准的武汉话版，反而奇怪吧！
看得煎熬，长篇累牍的抒情是对好题材的拖累好吧，为什么不换个方式去表达，重点没抓住，真是白瞎了。
个人觉得拆开做独立的单元格，或者微电影会更好，作为一个两小时的电影，方方面面的，有些稀碎
剧本太一般，表达刻意，即便是原音配音，但效果特别不好，非常跳戏。想法很好，不同人物衬托出的疫情中不同的境况，但情节太漂浮，强硬硬来煽情，观众不傻，浪费题材浪费演员。
绝对的主旋律电影，通过4位（对）不同行业，不同年龄的人士，在武汉抗疫期间所做所为，进行了一个全方位的动态描写，顺便也歌颂了在这段疫情期间，武汉这个城市的坚强。
