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".
一镜到底是本片的失败之处。电影让人看到头晕，这样的一镜到底不要也罢。
真糟糕，战术战略完全不讲胡乱biu，圣母女表+无头苍蝇反派，看似严密的黑军事监狱轻松被攻破，小钢炮都没一发，重机枪都没一挺，突突突还没哔哔哔的话字儿多...阿金斯你上点心行不，好歹也算是个腕儿了，挑片子把眼睛擦亮点好伐...
战斗很爽，一镜到底，烘托气氛到位，尤其主角，太生猛，敌方就显得太菜鸡，有些不真实。还有，嚷着子弹没有，满地的枪为啥不捡；这么多人，每人扔个手雷，事情早就解决了，偏偏就要排队进去送人头巴拉巴拉，逻辑上确实一大堆漏洞，随便看看，还行吧
现在什么片都挑战一镜到底，但这晃晃悠悠的手持镜头搭配毫无特色的剧情真的也没啥特别的。
视角独特，有身临其境的感觉，就是太他妈晕车了，貌似一镜到底的徒手格斗戏可圈可点，愣是没看出来Ryan……
属于先有概念和设定，剩下全乱搞的，场景做得挺好的，怎么最后拍得这么敷衍和粗糙呢，只有bug和可笑。吴彦祖什么情况？？？
看了二十分钟到了激烈的枪战场面还是一开始仍未切换的那个长镜头，忽然明白了片名one shot的含义。虽然整部戏的战斗场面不算大，但有了这个不切换的长镜头，顿时让人觉得牛逼起来。阿特金斯何时能摆脱网剧明星的身份跻身一流巨星?
没有合格的剧情，没有精彩的打斗，冲着斯科特·阿金斯来的都会失望而去
绝对要给满分，一镜到底，就像在玩使命召唤，火拼、狙击、暗杀、近距离格斗，该有的都有，完美诠释什么是美国大兵和美国精神，同伴之间有情有义，对国家绝对忠诚，坚持战斗到最后一刻。
非要等白莲花女主交代完后事男主逃走才进来收拾残局……
一镜到底，虽然男主开挂打COD，但近期像这样质量的枪战片少之又少。不需要剧情，看的就是突突突释放上班的压力。
一镜到底，有硬核亨利那味了，这才是真正意义上的枪战爽片嘛，虽然观影过程会感到头晕目眩，但室内CQB和交战规则的处理将特种作战场面还原得很真实。在一镜到底的拍摄手法加持下，会感到无处不在的紧张压抑气氛，阿金斯动作一如既往的流畅，这不比红色通缉令有意思？
阿金斯终于演了个能看的动作片。one shot 一次机会；one shot 一镜到底。
电影后三分之一都是男主角个人秀，结尾草草了事，正如开局
继《1917》之后又一部伪一镜到底的影片，还是有限场景内的枪战动作片，完整记录从受袭到防御再到反击的全过程，动作较专业，打斗也真实，除开头有点慢热之外，其余时间基本无尿点。出乎意料地好看！一般像这样小格局的动作片剧情都是比较弱智狗血的，但这部片子意外地地不粗糙不空洞，很多细节的铺垫与反转都交代得清楚自洽，如那张胎儿B超影像原来竟是关键道具！阿金斯拍了一部好片，也让我们看到了他的努力和进步。希望可以看到他更多的不同尝试！
唯一的亮点是一镜到底，虽然我没有觉得一镜到底能增加电影的观赏性
休叔演技嗓音让我整部电影看完没怎么分心，牛。设定挺有吸引力，追忆有意思，就是剧情有点弱。
动作片用一镜到底的拍摄手法还真的是神！基本没什么剧情，就无脑爽爆的动作片
思念某个人就是人生的一部分，不经历这种悲伤，就无法体会甜蜜。
还行吧 让我意外的是最后女主竟然挂了 光环只给了男主一个人
