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".
这种题材90年代以后就不适应拍成真人版了。你们谁把我这最后的想象世界的火车票报了吧～～
还记得小学看原著时十分震撼的心情，用童话浪漫的方式提出了对我们教育的诸多反思。电影有许多改编，但总体也不错，人物改编是亮点，五个罐头小人和学生们都刻画很好，性格鲜明。遇到火灾怎么办，正确答案是水和灭火器，但如果没有这两者会怎样？课堂不是生活的全部，人生没有正确答案，电影中的人物都有双面性，老师重分数也爱学生，叛逆的孩子也渴望变得更好，没有真正的坏人，这是一个希望每个人都善良的现实童话。
老郑在最后扫地僧式出场的彩蛋让又我想回去看他的书啦。
嗯对于儿童片来说还不错啊，剧情没啥硬伤，整体也比较合理（后面鲁西西连考试都没考结果评了优秀确实有点跳啊），给小孩子看还是不错的。小主演们演得很好，值得鼓励吧
太好玩了，电影院里旁边的孩子哭的稀里哗啦，被她带哭了
首先，我不会对照原著原文看电影，我也是在记不太清楚小时候随手翻看的几篇童话故事，但是电影本身确实找回了我很多童年的回忆，表示感谢。对于孩子来说，孩子觉得很好看，听有意思的，我觉得就足够了，最后用于上升主题的中心思想，说实话我真的看的不重，因为儿时的自己没在意过，现在看，首先是陪陪孩子，其次是努力的证明自己曾经也有一段童年，其他没什么了，啊，对了，那五个小人的年龄差稍微有点大。
虽然剧情比较低幼，而且特效一般，但不妨碍它是一部寓教于乐的片子。电影难能可贵的保留了郑渊洁童话里的荒诞喜剧和讽刺批判，在一众不知所云的儿童片中很是出彩，算是比较大胆说事的儿童片。
好看的，不但是童年回忆，同时也说出了两个娃的心声。两个娃看的很激动，哈哈哈哈哈。
有时候想自己是不是太谨慎，在网络从不透露个人信息，连注册捆绑号码也都是曾被公用的旧号，永远无法查到我个人实名。所以敢在这里说真话，写真实想法，记录真正内心历程。在一个没有任何熟人的地方畅所欲言，不避讳内心的阴暗面和小心眼
支持童年的童话，看过书的具体内容都已经忘了，只能说结尾还是天真吧。彩蛋很有趣，哈哈。

小朋友的演技都很好，很真诚，最打动我了。
挺好一电影，我初中那会最爱看皮皮鲁了，每周借我同桌的一本带回家看。今天偶然在电视上看到这个电影，感觉小朋友们的演技还都挺好的
童年经典还是留在记忆里比较美好，它就留在上世纪那个点看着我们前行就好了。何必拉出来赶鸭子上架，拙劣的鞭尸……
国庆一家人一起看，讲述皮皮鲁和鲁鲁西西跟五个罐头小人的友情，互助故事，情节的学校考试，老师，家长对孩子要求，像极了现实，不过还好有最后好学生的定义，有爱，有勇敢，有努力的学生，女儿看着搞笑又紧张。
别错过彩蛋！
我觉得挺适合孩子看的，后来觉得适合大人一起看，我觉得童话没必要太过较真细节，又不是烧脑片，有些人真的太苛刻童话了

徐老师演的像个填鸭机器，后面又莫名煽情，火灾烧的奇奇怪怪，这种特效看着十分尴尬，不如先拍成动画片会比较好，另外，一个拿针当武器的小人输血的时候不会被直接捅死么？
没啥电影质感 跟我小时候幻想的罐头小人也相差比较远 但皮皮鲁和鲁西西的小演员还是选的很有灵气的 鲁西西妥妥大女主 跟老师对杠的时候我真的爱死她了！n年前的作品拿出来拍电影 讲的也还是应试教育那点事儿 但其实现在的教育虽然也还存在着这样的问题 但已经在通过不一样的更隐秘的方式表现出来了 所以显得有一些落伍。。。也有一点点激进 扮相也不够八九十年代 但是儿童电影没有真正意义上的坏人 看起来毫无包袱 还是很幸福的
