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".
让我想起《天鹅挽歌》和《逃离克隆岛》，说实在的，这部的剧情有点乏味。
虽然是看的无字幕生肉，但好像不怎么妨碍理解😅
6.5分。电影有点闷，或者说编导存心把画面调得比较闷，一个毫无怜悯心的，漠然的世界，这点还是不错的。我原本以为电影着重的应该是本体和克隆人之间的相处，可结果电影里却花了大量篇幅去讲女主的所谓训练？？但就当我以为故事会这么发展到残杀的时候，又突然转回来描绘两人之间的关系了？？可最后却又变成了毒杀？？？总感觉有那么点为了转折而转折的味道。最后的女主无论算是本体还是算是克隆体都能说的通，就看你是咋想的了。
重要的是，噢噢噢噢我的咩酱！
从第一任老爸说举家搬迁到巴西就不咋看得下去了……
05.05 爱的接力棒
只要你妈长得美 你爸就可以是梦想家王老五和接盘侠 剧情最后仿佛在催你哭 田中圭俨然成为人夫专业户 看咩酱演高中生竟生出了违和感 爱很伟大与血缘无关 但是这部电影不太行
一开始先是感叹这剧里面的男人怎么都那么好骗，然后又觉得这些男人怎么可以那么大爱，再然后又觉得十元那个角色好变态，好任性，最后扯到了生病给了个爱的定义。是只有我觉得怪么，而且这种寄生女儿还能一直笑对人生会不会太戏剧了。女儿和男友寻亲那段以为会很救赎很好哭，最后还没毕业典礼弹钢琴的时候泪点高
“只要保持笑容 就会有大把的幸运从天而降”
反正我个人很喜欢，好久没哭，看这个哭的很爽
小仙女真美。温馨的片子，治愈系。所有人都是好人。
关于人体克隆的科幻影视中，这个是非常独特的好的创意了！
十元的剧外加冈田小哥的颜真的是太吸引我了！！！全程无吻戏，但是这种默默陪伴的感觉好棒啊！

除了演员以外所有东西都很离谱。。。虽然咩是我的美丽女鹅 但是看这样的片子属实是糟蹋时间
女主是幸运还是不幸呢。是幸运吧
看到海报：书看到一半，发现脑海里梨花姐姐的脸是十元，森宫爸爸的脸是田中圭。不过早濑感觉有点不一样，“浪”的度数高了一些。女主也是很可爱呢。看完电影：咳…….有些东西和书里传达的不太一样，书里优子就是幸福感满满的呀，影里的过多的唯唯诺诺假笑让人心疼。毕业就结婚，生娃三个够热闹…..为了爸爸重新开始自己的婚姻生活…..无理无理，虽说爱是付出，可是自己呢？最重要的自己呢？另外，影里的色彩就像想象中的人饱和度过高的梦中之家，好喜欢，好想住泉源叔叔的家呀。有十元的地方就是金灿灿的呢。(^V^)
扯是真的扯，但也是真的催泪。戏剧化也要有个度啊喂，当观众没脑子大概不得行ww咩酱真的太可爱了，另外，梨花的那个遗照真的很飘柔广告🤣🤣
看看作品本身，即使母爱并不完美，作为观众的我也会感动于那份“不给孩子添麻烦”的心意；即使父爱并没有那么热烈，我也会在继父笨拙的爱中酸鼻子。
前两天看的，有点无厘头，但还是看得蛮开心的，就是看完好想再去看一遍一吻定情哦
