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".
为什么要给打十分呢？因为大年初一的时候很多人给打了一分两分。韩寒的电影我全部都看过，这是我认为最好的。我不知道，其他人说的。没有大纲的高中生写的小说还什么青春伤痛文学。但是我只能说他是我的菜。今天是我2022年五一假期的第一天，早晨醒来之后什么也没干，中午吃完饭之后又睡了一会儿。看完这个电影又到了晚饭的时间了，现在6:30好了，我要去吃饭了。
你那不叫抖包袱，太尬太硬，毫不自然。好好的拍个故事就行了，平凡些不用生离死别的。
韩寒的现在最大问题是太多没有任何逻辑的无厘头打断故事节奏和整体质感，最后就是四不像，故事太不合理，人说死就死...
本就没累积什么期望
为什么要给打十分呢？因为大年初一的时候很多人给打了一分两分。韩寒的电影我全部都看过，这是我认为最好的。我不知道，其他人说的。没有大纲的高中生写的小说还什么青春伤痛文学。但是我只能说他是我的菜。今天是我2022年五一假期的第一天，早晨醒来之后什么也没干，中午吃完饭之后又睡了一会儿。看完这个电影又到了晚饭的时间了，现在6:30好了，我要去吃饭了。
1.往往抱着「想看这部电影究竟有多烂」的念头去看电影，最后都会失望而归，因为发现电影其实也就普普通通的烂，甚至还是有可看之处；2.观看韩寒的电影，都会有阅读韩寒小说的感觉，这个也算是韩寒的作者属性吧；3.影片属于段子电影，抖着韩寒幽默，还挺好笑，毕竟中学时代就能从他的小说里get到他的笑点，影片为了抖段子，角色工具化，剧情毫无章法，瞎几把扯，从影院开车回家的路上，25分钟的时间竟然还没吐槽完影片狗屁不通的地方，如果是春节期间第一时间去看，肯定也会怒打一星。
单纯不是白痴，复杂不是别扭
初心很好，想法太多，没有现实，直接崩盘，更不适合春节档。
韩寒还是那个韩寒，青春伤痕文学，只是我已经不是21岁时的那个我了。现在已经不吃这套了，那些耍帅的套路给我感觉很油腻，特别是酒店含早是什么鬼，太造作了，不知道现在的年轻人吃不吃这套。
不明白为什么低的分… 大概是韩寒能戳中的始终是某一个群体吧… 全程都好看，除了女主选角瞎了以外没啥缺点，是韩寒式的忍俊不禁以及感动到无法形容
这个时代的风停了。
「少年就是少年，他们看春风不喜、看夏蝉不烦、看秋风不悲、看冬雪不叹，看满身富贵懒察觉、看不公不允敢面对，只因他们是少年。」延续了韩寒一如既往的电影风格，自导自演，小镇少年、车、姑娘和远方的故事，他把他所有喜欢的东西都放在电影里了，每一部都是。很多人说这部春节档电影票房惨败，至少亏了一半，主要原因都是女主角刘浩存路人缘不好、拉垮了票房，我倒觉得不尽然。虽然不至于差到爱优腾没有一家门户网站愿意上线片源，但花了2.6亿就拍出了这样一部电影 真的也是挺可惜的。直到电影开始，我才发现故事主人公吴仁耀长大的地方居然是汕头南澳岛！这次倒是有头有尾地讲了个为爱还高利贷的故事，可并没有值得我记住或喜欢的地方，我甚至想不到有什么讨厌的地方，因为它实在太平平无奇。为了我老去的、心爱的、不再才华横溢的男孩韩寒，加一星。
我们热爱电影 是因为我们可以花费个把钟头 得到无数个生活的可能 看见他们到青春 也看过他们到别离 灯光亮起 电影散场 观众奔赴各自到人生 依然有对生活到憧憬 不是指想从电影中得到嘻嘻哈哈
打不开酒店门。-离谱他妈妈给他开门吧。 阿耀睡觉枕边放的《麦琪的礼物》。高明的电影导演都喜欢在片子里玩梗、埋伏笔。—这些东西在四海里，莫名有丝尴尬😳？
疼痛文学，为伤而伤，确实不理解，行为都有种脸谱式荒谬的执着。但比想象中好，主角选的太美好了，更喜欢后半段结局前的气氛。
很讽刺，《四海》的英文名是《Only fools rush in》，可不咋地，确实是只有傻子才看，这到底是要表达什么？嗯？
无病呻吟的青春伤痛文学……
摄影很漂亮，但不够准确，开头要变现男女主感情升温，动不动来个大全景交代环境干什么
但是就是好！
前半段连沈腾都救不回来，结局是上帝都救不回来
