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".
有些镜头很美，但总感觉有些欠缺，不值五颗星，喜欢结尾。
在片尾看到了党史顾问（现在居然还需要配党史顾问），还有文学顾问，忘记有没有军事顾问了，应该没有吧因为真的很不合逻辑，枪和子弹浸在水里那么长时间还能正常使用，放在火堆旁边也不怕炸膛，手臂被炸掉后长时间没有绑带止血人还能活下去，失去平衡还能很快适应并下水游泳.....懂都懂吧只能说。
放在主旋律战争片里算是有风格，但风格实在压过故事太多，反而让人对故事没什么印象只记得风格。
看了其他评论才想起来，影片最开始有一些蛇的意象的刻画；中间有飞蛾的意象。反正，蛇的出现是挺败笔的。
现在的国产电影应该向这部电影力求美术构图，但不能过于追求，不然如本片:除美术摄影皆流于表面，显得很公式化。
国内能出现这种诗性风格的战争电影，就已经是一丝希望的迹象了。能看到《伊万的童年》的影响。
这灰不拉叽的滤镜真是够了，看不清人物表情，边界模糊，电影质感不是冷色调就一定高级。头一次见方言说得这么不接地气。剧情无聊，角色单薄，转变突兀。摄影还可以吧，像作画那样讲究构图，但很多时候过于追求静态构图又没能力把握住动态构图，以至于让人物沦为了模特。
出乎意料，比想象中好太多了。叙事美术摄影都很厉害，相比之下导演似乎弱了一些，有一些不清不楚的地方。映后交流主创团队一直在强调探索性艺术性和本土性，确实感受到了，也确实如监制徐小明所说这是一部需要门槛的电影，有惊喜到。
黑白电影决定着这是一部纯粹的艺术电影，不含一点商业元素。为数不多的有色彩画面是送饭的为数不多的治愈画面。诗性的水墨画风格，画面很美，确有国美风格。
6.20南京后窗交流场 1.拯救大兵瑞恩的中国版、集体主义版，试图从这样的小切口入手是好的，但是主题全靠台词cue，没能很好的融进故事里，也许还是惦念着主旋律的格调吧 2.颜色用的确实不错，黑中带蓝，群山薄雾，符合中国画的意思。结尾处血一样的红雨滴落到脸上全片最佳。但好看画面不等于好的摄影，组合在一起显得有些故弄玄虚了3.导演说声音全靠后期做，其实不需要他说，任谁也听得出来。刻意的方言、粗糙的声音，本就晦涩的画面配上种种不同步的台词，实属在挑战观众了 4.记一点细节：枪的设计。开向观众的、背对观众的、横对观众的，音效很激烈的配合着，印象深刻。枪代表孤军小战，和大的战场是分裂的，好像能把观众和一条条实体的生命联系在一起，我很喜欢。
第11届BJIFF第八张票献给《云霄之上》低成本高质量的竞赛单元影片 影调冷而压抑直到最后一个镜头的反差 毫不夸张的说我心跳跟着影片节奏几次加快 包括手持跟、摇镜头逐步递进的刺激感 迷雾、构图和光影的诗意 长镜头的组接 还有部分写实的画面具有质感 人物的命运也蛮反套路 比较特别的一部
后面噼里啪啦的牺牲和不知所云的摄影，笑笑就好。
3.5，好的地方是少有的主旋律战争片不硬往民族和国家大义上扯的，甚至于连黑白色调的应用都是恰到好处，与山间的芦苇荡映衬也融洽，形成一种极简质感的视觉美，队长视角的两个意象画面及队员们的反战情绪也着实能看出影片想往军人人性个体化的表达方向上靠拢，这是主旋律中比较有新意的地方，但可惜的是他仅仅只是点到为止，并没有进一步深挖这个立意，结果就是导致看到最后我不仅他们的脸记不住，就连他们其中任意一个人的个性点我都找不到，就只是炸完弹药库，任务完成然后就草草收尾了，再加上中间有些许叙事推进不够连贯的地方，只能说影片的完成度还是有些不尽人意。
8分可以有，实打实四星。难得一见不会晃着观众肩膀逼你哭的主旋律影片，台词少，镜头语言突出，我喜欢。适合放电影节，放院线比较折磨主流观影人群。缺点：部分台词表达与影片风格不符，略突兀。20220620北京槐房万达影城
剧本弱我忍了 怎么画面还这么暗💦中间没睡纯靠影院里冷气吹 喜欢结尾的「红」
国产主旋律就应该有这样的质量，别再搞形式主义了
优点是聚焦在了战争中的一线、普通士兵身上，将普通人的苦难赤裸裸地展现给观众，将战争对人的残酷冲击几乎没有粉饰地呈现。特别是感觉像是头一回看到了正面角色中有人有退缩，有犹豫，展现了人真实的一面。没有多少大词，没有什么正义必胜，只是希望能救下更多人。
美术摄影都挺在线，国产战争片里为数不多能看的，光影运用这方面不及《1917》，色彩调度又比不上《影》，各方面显得都挺用力，过犹不及啦，给点人情分3.5/5
部分技术瑕疵无关紧要，这部电影意义不在于此。
影片有自己独特的影像风格，但影像风格并不是电影的一切，如果说这是习作，差不多能到7分，可这是一部院线，那不好意思5分不能再多了。
