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".
初识猎魔人世界，算是了解其设定。不过试炼着实离谱，在筛选什么呢，主角光环？
很真实细腻的一部小家庭影片，中途数度想要落泪。芳仪和马的那场戏实在是点睛之笔。留白很多，看完回首又会觉得什么都讲明白了。这就是生动地描绘了一个普通平凡，但每个人都能共情到的小家庭。
类似神话或者玄幻，更倾向于中国传统。故事根基需要文化熏陶和沉淀
年轻的维瑟米尔这么能打，剧情这么单调，光头杰洛特这么的不可爱……
挺不错的，剧情完整，动作出色，配音大气，但有些地方有点赶工了，80分钟还是太短了
交代维瑟米尔如何从穷小子成长为猎魔人。一个甲子的时间，也不去联络青梅竹马的女友吗？猎魔人的设定，很像网络安全公司的那帮家伙。
高星的人都是玩过游戏的人么？说实话这个片实在看不出哪里精彩，get不到哪里好看呢。。。画面什么都不强求了，感觉剧情有点突兀，全片没有任何打动人的点，大部分的打斗都有点不明所以并且也不精彩。。。整体感觉比较无聊
身份背景选择不错，拍得也细腻，只是有不少不了了之的线索，仿佛打了空拳。
画面表现力毋庸置疑 不过作为前传有些魔改得过头了
气质完美复刻游戏，剧情完全在意料之中，结局略显仓促像是为下一部做铺垫。本来还以为会和游戏联动一下说说dlc那个老女贵族的事情呢
讲不通就打，毫不比比，在动画电影的形式中，血浆喷洒也比真人电影设计起来更无拘无束~
意外的好看 交代了凯尔莫罕和猎魔人的衰落 老爷子真的太帅了 猎魔人以这种方式保全自己是否也是一种两害相权取其轻？ 剧情也有点虐 同样的网飞制作出了两种猎魔人
推广之。“超级英雄”也具有这样的矛盾。一方面，他们的存在是为了铲除奸邪。但他们的力量和特异，使他们具有“非人”的特性从而不被信任。
文化、教育、成长、家庭，从共鸣到共情，由表及里的感染。
体弱的母亲，因为需要赚钱而背井离乡的父亲，瘟疫时心照不宣压下不说但吓到出冷汗的心理疮疤，隔着门听到的无止息的争吵，在心里暗暗发誓不要成为母亲直到某天意识到她便是我，在疫情时因工作离开的父亲与歇斯底里的母亲……而我没有一匹马，我甚至不能想象一匹马，骑马是什么感觉？——“像世界停了一下，然后什么都不重要”。
维瑟米尔年轻的时候这么帅吗？最后的那个光头小孩是白狼？
奈飞的制作，剧情打斗都挺到位的，可惜没有游戏里猎魔人逛旅馆，那满眼美女，丰乳肥臀，翻云覆雨的场景。
没有前情提要看的一头雾水，不适合没接触过这个系列的人。
越往后越别扭……我理解如果完全按照原著来，想不拍得虎头蛇尾绝非易事。但编剧这么搞，人物本身就显得平淡，和后面的故事又不能顺利承接，更抵不上游戏中的升华。改编不是乱编…
好看啊，打戏爽翻，剧情上填了凯尔莫罕大屠杀的坑，光头杰洛特好可爱哈哈哈哈
