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".
2022年了喂，为什么交互界面还能那么丑啊？
天空之城里的公主这回依旧怼天怼地火气很大，全程都是一股子狠劲儿。 承担超越年龄的苦，被迫成长，四处碰壁的绝望感，还是要感叹一句这没有道理的世界啊… 没有靠山孤身奋战的姐姐，最强有力的发泄，也只能是推土机的一铲子…
求求美国人离古典剧远一点吧🥲要不还是让英国人拍吧🥲
1）除了角色名字一样，这部电影和简奥斯丁的《劝导》一点关系都没有。2）让主角对着镜头说话的展现方式真的是新时代的傻瓜拍电影法和傻瓜观影法了。3）亚裔男二实在是太迷人了，比男主迷人太多。4）都2022年了还在骂有色人种casting的人真的是让人无法理解。
有点差啊，虽然女主挺喜欢的，但不适合这种打扮…可能长得太现代了？
Anyway,
年纪大了，已经不大能接受无脑看只追求刺激。bug1，医院停电or拉闸，居然没人发现？1家医院只有1个保安+1个病人？？？bug2，警长老妈第一时间叫支援回去保护儿子，结果自己都送人头完了，警察也没来？而且你可是警长啊，居然打不过一个高中生？大白天的死在大门口，隔壁左右也没人管的。。。帅哥好友看见他妈的未接来电也不管，只会傻盯屏幕就完了？不会回个电话么，力气没凶手大，剔裤裆会不会，脑袋歪一下会不会？真是被桶活该。bug3，人被烧成那样了，是真的不会咚咚咚的气势汹汹的冲过来的
为什么要把奥斯汀改编成另一部流水线爱情电影…please show some respect并且不是所有影视作品都适合打破第四面墙
一开始觉得女主角不是心中安妮这样狡黠活跃的性格，看到后面，女主角不一直自白认真投入人物本身时觉得演绎得又毫无问题。结尾真的幽默又美好
2星，前面卖情怀玩老梗，后面嘲讽粉丝吐槽影片系列爱好者。哈哈哈。
女主虽然很帅，打架也爽，但脑子实在捉急，气！
最失望的一集。导演在严重低估观众智商的同时，把主角们一个个往杀手那边送，看得人想把导演和编剧暴揍一顿。结局前后呼应，致敬了第一集。
作为看过原著的，不太接受这版的改编，缺乏古典含蓄之美，尤其是主人公那种挣扎压抑没有体现，女主表情一直积极乐观，还带有戏谑的意味，只想说这不是Anne，更像是傲慢与偏见里面的女主，其他角色也是外露的脸谱化的表演，太过现代的拍摄手法和台词脚本，就仿佛在看一部舞台剧而不是电影。
势单力薄的少女家长与这个肮脏社会的对抗 也许她的父亲不是个好人 但在这件事中他是受害者 有时候会想这种倔强到近乎愚蠢的一腔孤勇到底是不是无用 但这就是女主处理问题的方式 影片塑造了一个个性鲜明的角色 但也仅限于此了
这种恐怖片不一起看一起吐槽那还有啥乐趣。看到Monica还挺惊奇的。最后被烧着的那个姑娘是不是在《好莱坞往事》里被小李烧着的也是她……
netflix 有能力把一切简化成艾米丽在巴黎……
让人无语的结局，女主很莽，完全没带脑子，叙事也很杂乱，没有重点，平铺直叙。
烂到家了，所有烂俗恐怖片有的烂俗桥段它一个都没少，比如医院除了主角和鬼面人一个人都没有？这也就算了，所有演员演技都差到极致，完全无法入戏呀😂另外，剧情特别离谱！
镜头组织和剪辑太平凡了，导致剧情发展和人物形象根本无法有力地展开。
先后看了07还有这部，还是很宽容的给个五星（用看布里奇顿的心态去看的），个人认为有这样的改编也可以接受，毕竟有了07劝导珠玉在前，更流行娱乐化的新版本无可厚非，男主的人设去掉了尖锐的部分，更加温和，看完像看了本破镜重圆的通俗小说，浪漫爱情故事让人觉得暖洋洋的。
