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".

宇文老二宰了老的像他爹的老大后，给老大办的葬礼，家的装扮，他妈的日本风？离了大谱，前几天看的盲战，给人评论说该叫盲侠，结果今天就看到正主了，哈。挺有侠骨风，电影不赖，就是有点短，才1小时12分钟？
国产版《座头市》，翻拍的很一般，台词啰嗦，画面不错，节奏不稳
情节5，动作画面8，合计6.5/10分
把盲侠弄成赏金猎人（捉刀人），放在唐朝安史之乱后（其实哪个朝代都行）。喝了姑娘的喜酒，为姑娘讨一个公道，凭一己之力铲除黑恶势力及其保护伞。
香港武侠片靠魏君子继承了，徐克啥时候用一下谢苗这个曾经的武打童星，话说谢苗身板还是有些矮小不够魁梧，有几处摄影挺美的，故事稍简单。
总之力荐
不给琴娘战斗场面我真的接受不了。。。。这必须减一星！
远没有口碑说的那么惊艳，还是对打戏的数量和质量有过高的期待了，褪去小成本网大可能存在的“出人意料”，本片捉襟见肘的预算把短板暴露的明明白白的，西部片的氛围，《座头市》的设定，打戏对标《枕刀歌之尘世行》，历史背景对标《长安十二时辰》，最后一场雪景戏甚至有《杀死比尔》的韵味，导演的野心有目共睹，可怜和西部片之洒脱、北野武之血腥、枕刀歌之流畅、十二时辰之精良、昆汀之刻奇乃云泥之别，又模仿的相当明显，想不对比都难，一对比就露怯的十分尴尬
小成本纯粹武侠动作片，狗血故事不拖泥带水，动作戏干脆但是没什么新意，画面干净好看有点意思。
编剧仿佛在写汇报材料，凑够了要素就开拍/慢镜和柔焦以及快把我也晃瞎的强光是在拍mv吗😂/刀背藏身你知道我在想你吗😢
我为什么打5星。作为一部网大，它完全超出了我的预料。不论是画面，剧情张力还是台词都体现出了上乘水平。在我看来它不比«taken》差到哪里，甚至还要更加干脆利落，为谢苗高兴，他终于展现出了幼时的风采
这种类型的片打斗一定要漂亮，摄影一定要美，因为剧情没啥可看的。还可以学学老外吹吹口哨，后面的哼哼就没必要了，难听。
人物情绪饱满，动作设计流畅，尽管对盲侠的这个借鉴有争议。不过就坏人拖着燕子进屋儿然后阿兄琵琶骨被刺穿往前挣扎前行的这一段儿，拍的是非常饱满。谢苗能看出来真的很努力，他依然在这个行业坚持着。侠气有没有，出场就能看出来。
观影二十多年了，我怎么会看这种电影？导演想表达什么？
把这样一部电影称为今年的武侠之光，无疑是武侠片的悲哀。但更悲哀的是居然很难反驳？因为当下已经没有什么武侠片。论及完成度和邵氏功夫片相仿，但囿于成本，演员的演技实在出戏。作为网大固然很好，不过别人家的网大是《惊天营救》，还是不要盲目捧杀为好。
有被爽到！太久没有这么让人嗨的电影了，上一部是[绣春刀]。
叙事不乱，座头市式侠客，是人心中想的那个江湖。
开场赌场戏其实拉低了预期，盲侠设定已有先例，快意恩仇，手起刀落，没那么多弯弯绕，简单直接，纯粹的武侠回归，反派小人做派暗箭伤人，但是这里面缺点也很明显，以一人之力灭大恶之帮，还能全身而退，法理何在？
非常好看，镜头很美，画面也极具写意的美感，不管是大雪杀人还是雨夜纷飞，都有一种侠客的仗义豪情在内，谢苗的武大动作干净利落，五颗星送给这句台词:我在这里生活了二十多年，才知道这里是个没有王法的地方！
