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".
gay版傲慢与偏见，属于第一眼就知道贫穷男主遇到的高富帅男人会是良配。在充满美好肉体的火烧岛，遇到一个愿意和自己坐下来聊艾丽丝门罗的拥有美好肉体的男人，真是幸甚至哉。
很神奇，偏远小镇、作死青年、神秘的父辈、科技怪才。。。这种种元素堆起来就是妥妥的悬疑片，但是这部竟然是意外，非得向着喜剧靠，效果是有，但是让两个小孩，后面哥哥和餐厅女孩（甚至看完下来都记不住名字）加入了捉鬼小分队，完全撑不起场面。小女孩聪明也只体现在知道的学术知识很多，那老师更是sb，在小镇研究地震那么久不知道个所以然，反而还带着两个小孩打开陷阱器？？？反派也就那样，场面很足但是还是很弱鸡，最佳反派应该是棉花糖小鬼，太可爱了！一句话总结就是不如上一部啊
据说是借用了傲慢与偏见的。但不得不说前期引入很生硬。后面就好很多。
三星加一星，给惊艳的天才少女和片尾曲满满的回忆。
COOL ! 而且情怀满满，彩蛋笑喷。PS小女主前途无量
男二可太像我了🆘🆘🆘，从外表到内里再到“恋爱自卑观”的！！！
虽说奥斯汀奶奶泉下有知传世经典被这样改编后可能会惊得复活，但不可否认整体还是挺新颖有趣。2022.06.05
場景、燈光、攝影、道具(除了後面那倆狗)都很棒。能以這樣的形式紀念也很不錯。劇情和音樂俗套中庸。
老美这种retro sci-fi 拍的都挺好，又stupid，又挺燃。
又一步续作。但是前面铺垫太多了，在今天的技术条件下，特效也很一般，那就真没什么看点了。
小演员演技很好。影片情怀满满，很适合和家人朋友一起观看。
情怀加成，节奏紧凑挽救了此片成为超级烂片的可能。但是除此之外全片并不精彩，boss的胡乱设定只想让人逃离。。。
一般吧，很多梗，好像在讲爱情，却又觉得少了点什么。
就喜欢这样bitch的傲慢与偏见。好想去火烧岛哦！
热热闹闹，欢欢喜喜，从追求性到遇见爱，这是一个愉快的夏天。
fine,这种套用都市童话模板甚至爆米花式的“小基电影”也没必要向扣咪拜哟宁看齐，嗑嗑瓜子看看肉体吐槽下俗烂爱情不就够了,will越看越有林保怡的港味，至于 Zane Phillips，哦买噶，Christian hogue和Luke Macfarlane的直弯奇妙混合体。
强卖情怀，让十二岁的女主角拿着上个世纪的武器去打鬼大可不必。
I'm like Howie without meeting Noah or Charlie....
这还不幼稚？这还不假？不老套？故事硬中之硬，为了拍一个电影而拍，不管是否为了致敬，这电影就算放到三十年前，依旧是一部把观众当5岁小孩的烂片。
怎么能这么无聊，全方位的难看。要啥没啥，而且导演或者制片是没搞懂你片子的受众吧？一些冷笑话也只有腐女和直人才会笑吧？
