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".
他两在一起是真没有Cp感，应该找大本来。还有就是Jlo的身材真是几十年如一日的一级棒
前有梦境仙女后有镜中仙女，还是个糖仙。人体真菌化看得多了，人体蜂巢化还是挺特别的，结尾蜂群围住头部显示出一种朦胧又诡异的面纱美感，果然虫子很蒂啊(cue奥伯龙)。正儿八经的续作，看到一半就猜到了男主角的身份，被蜜蜂盯了然后半边身子蜂巢化还被狂热粉丝强行断手插铁钩，真的很(人造)糖果侠/蜂人。结尾女主角的召唤也......挺有......意思的。都市传说这块做得还行吧，但总的来说探讨议题还是不如老版。
用电影作为媒介来宣传黑命贵我没意见，但在此之前能不能先把故事讲通顺？千万不要学法国电影理念超前故事划水...
性转版摩登灰姑娘为啥还在给大美人配中年好人男子，凭什么成功女士就非得只注重内在。诺丁山至少给配了颜颠的Hugh Grant，就不能给个不知道自己帅但明显是大帅哥的nerd吗
虽然已经是过了青春靓丽的岁月，男主欧文威尔逊也不算颜值耐打的男主，但凑一起的CP感还是有的。
本来就是一场不好笑也不怎么好听的老套爱情喜剧，谁知道遇到了欧文威尔森面瘫的表演，让观感更是急转直下。
遵Stuckmann旨意去电影院看的，还花的全票价，觉得挺开心的，并从此以后开始祛除此类影片的Chickflick标签（Stuckmann男士说他也喜欢看RomCom）。
如果有这样有才华却冲动随意的女明星，我想看她的真人秀
此前对女主无感。看完真的好感爆棚。这是一部关于爱情救赎的故事。人们看见这样的漂亮女人哪怕事业再成功还是希望她找个老公，否则就是失败。还有一个好人单亲爸爸，也希望他找个老婆重新组建家庭得到家庭温暖。一个花花公子塞巴斯蒂安，人们是不担心他的，别作死了就好，但是也有很大概率是花到老的。这就是人们的感觉。那在任何一段关系里，每个人的感觉如何，就是他们自己的事了。女主真的很优秀，不要被束缚就好了
我爱owen wilson,但诺丁山好得多得多得多。
92年的原作当时只做一般鬼片来看。一个黑人受到不公正对待，枉死后化为恶灵向世人索命，这样的鬼怪故事放到如今政治正确的好莱坞，自然免不了成为黑人族裔表达抗争诉求的外衣。但以暴制暴并不能换取更好的明天。
7分，虽然剧情有些过于天真，但凯特和查理彼此了解的过程还是挺有意思，里面的歌也都挺不错。虽然彼此的生活有着天壤之别，但也正是因为这样的差异让凯特能从中体会普通人生活的淳朴，也让查理能从中放开自己的拘束。凯特说的话还是很有道理，如果我们总是回头留念，很容易重蹈覆辙，做出完全不同的决定虽然看似疯狂，但说不定能走出一条更有希望的路。
没想到2022了还在拍这样的故事，威尔逊演得很不走心，纯当JLo演唱会看了。
哼！！！
诺丁山类似的故事，但是jlo和欧文威尔逊比萝卜茨和休格兰特质感上不知道low了有多少个档次。
for the music and visual presentation … and the saved Asian girl
我一直在想为什么刚开始结婚的那个表演场子那么小，观众那么少 this will haunt me all day
离JLo的古早爱情浪漫电影《曼哈顿灰姑娘》正好20年，离惠特妮-休斯敦《保镖》30年，时光流逝，仍然相信Rom-Com里的爱情！
为Jlo而看。如果她还是正能量美少女，再换掉欧文，这电影够卖。欧文的头发比Jlo的妆还像惠特尼休斯顿，伍迪艾伦式的说话腔调黏糊糊地像卡了一喉咙老痰，特想给他捶背，这哪是邻家大叔，是邻家阿婆。Jlo几十年如一日的正能量美少女，实在让人爱得又心酸又尴尬
邪笑挥钩手，无差别干翻。
