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".
很多人应该是从剧照开始期待的吧，剧情真的挺狗血，好在导演对氛围把握得不错。说实话我真的不喜欢因为自己生命快结束就不敢和喜欢的人在一起的桥段，及时行乐，把握当下不行嘛，至少还会有很多美好的回忆啊，不能好好去爱到离开的那天都会很后悔吧。小松菜奈确实在这部电影里很投入，整个人都不太精神的样子，至少看上去已经很像重病的人了，反而是小天使这次表现有点差强人意，没太接住戏。
用一个非常温子仁的“鬼屋”开场，引出一个完全不温子仁的故事——从Giallo到Slasher到Body Horror，终于踏出了一次舒适圈。剧本其实比较“快餐式”，甚至可以说有些俗套，但不妨碍精彩，尤其后半段发力很猛。视听调度、血腥程度和情节转折都相当厉害。（请看完整版，不要看爱奇艺特供shit）
我老觉得小松菜奈长得像个小伙子，不知道他老公看上她哪儿了，但这次我懂了，日本这种电影老多了，吃的就是演员气质
ost很好听 不过剧情就是野田洋次郎演过的 卫生间里的圣母像 女版
Dario Argento《陰風陣陣》（鉛黃電影）＋今敏《千年女優》《盜夢偵探》（虛實交錯）＋大衛哥倫堡《奪命凶靈》《奪命怪胎》（Body Horror）＋Frank Henenlotter《籃子裡的惡魔》（畸形連體嬰）＋外加自我致敬《招魂2》，溫子仁這部新片簡直是所有恐怖片、B級片和Cult片愛好者期待已久的狂歡盛宴啊！！！
如果说温子仁为了迎和当下观众的「恐怖审美」而自甘堕落到这样的水准简直是自毁招牌，而且这个故事的内核——一个男性怪物隐藏在女性身体内肆意作恶，最后需要女性的「自我觉醒」来除恶也太媚俗，而从故事到近于白痴的表演都是简单而幼稚的。
好普通的死人纯爱。但是两位模特出身的主演，拍的真的太美了。
小松菜奈yyds～画面和场景真的一绝，日本电影里该有的唯美感很足，哀而不伤，淡淡地面对死亡，人生，遗憾，以及美好。很喜欢
好像是第一次看到小松菜奈的演技。男一号很帅哎
前面部分是温子仁擅长的鬼屋恐惧，惊悚的氛围，很多夜景画面质感十足，后20分钟直接血腥程度起飞，让人目瞪口呆！虽然没有通篇延续之前的灵异惊悚恐怖，感觉温子仁回到了【电锯惊魂1】的初心，血腥拉满。……甚至在真相设置上有一丝致敬【死寂】的震撼感，中间还有打趣【招魂3】的对话。虽然真相是（隐藏），但Gabriel可以控制电磁信号，还是有些超自然的设定的。
电影本身并没有那么多值得多加回顾的点，但想到现实中的事情，还是忍不住哭了。
故事老套但忍不住眼泪。可是电影结束就忘了最开始忍不住眼泪的是哪个片段。
没人可以知道自己能活多久，天灾人祸，今天健康明天就能猝死，热爱当下吧。活过，哭过，笑过，爱过，人生就不是没有意义的。
茫茫人海，与心爱之人相遇，这就是一件奇迹。
温子仁对室内空间格局的运镜调度以及营造恐怖氛围的水平还是相当不错的，他的电影最大的特点就是沉浸感极佳，影像风格与视听技法很有特色。其实整体选材构思还可以，不过故事逻辑层面漏洞太多，完全经不起细看（比如妹妹黑灯瞎火探医院居然很随意就能找到多年前的资料、主角身上特异功能的来源没交代清楚）。
呜呜呜好哭好看。两人在清晨的迷雾里的画面太美了，nana的演技又惊艳到我了，明朗又脆弱。“能遇到自己爱的人，简直就是奇迹”。还要表白配乐～
一般吧。主要是没有触动到我，很难想象被宣判生命进入倒计时之后心态会产生怎样翻天覆地的变化。。。
是我期待太高了，也可能我同类型看的太多了
虽然剧情很简单也很普遍，但是画面真的很美啊。导演说想看坂口和nana谈恋爱，我只想说干得好！！！这两个人都太好看。还有这部剧有很多官方胶片照片，太美了受不了，存不能停。最后是洋次郎的歌，爱了。
很老套的爱情片，不过拍的很好。不过说实话，没有什么能让我记住的。
