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".
不是说角色多，就能造就又一部《银河护卫队》。像《神奇四侠》之流不就死惨。赵婷的冷挂，导致各种角色都缺乏魅力。有限的时间难以塑造角色，无趣的主线更是乏味。总体还是无聊。最坑爹的是，这部作品直接将妇联4部的价值抹杀。
风格有点类似之前看的过《极寒之城》《安娜》《极速追杀》，如果女主是塞隆，这部片子应该叫极寒之城东京特辑，这种类型的打斗爽片，可以稍微忽略剧情，打的好看情节紧凑就够了，但是整体来说节奏控制的不是很到位，动作设计也没上面提到的片子好看，所以就还行，女主有自己的个人魅力，但是相比塞隆，还是有一定差距，倒是展现不少日本东京挺有特色的街头文化，五颜六色的霓虹灯和动漫影像，别有一番滋味。
食人鲸的心脏也许重达百斤，
哪怕你以造物之名，天地不仁，让人类永恒卒呢，也好过以圣母之名，忽视人类的历史，搞什么无差别对待。最好让斯坦李亲自和导演说说。
事实证明有的导演并不是所有类型的电影都能拍好的，说实话这部电影之前还是挺期待的，看完真的是太失望了。
IMAX版彰显了摄影神迹之美。对 理查德·麦登 一直不感冒，但这片里他真王之俊美。
赵婷显然不太会拍类型片 漫威这个大染缸把她染得都没什么作者性了 但 比起漫威宇宙里的其他电影她的风格还是很好认 还是一如既往地“以柔克刚” 大概这里是仅存的一点作者感//不得不说 永恒族能找一位亚裔导演来拍真的很好 尤其是文化背景有一部分是彻彻底底东方的导演 对于时间的概念理解多少和西方人是不同的//没想到我竟然在开篇前半个小时里一直把麦登登看错是赛包还以为漫威现在可以一人分饰两角了
这是什么，是赵导写给人类社会和地球的情书，两个小时四十分钟带你走完世界上下五千年，带你走遍地球大好河山。（另外前半段亨利卡的超人不会告麦登侵权吗？后半段黑袍纠察队的超人不会告麦登侵权吗？（再另外赵婷骨子里真的是中国人，结尾致敬五指山，还致敬哪吒😅“爹爹 你的骨肉还给你 我不连累你！”（再再另外理查德麦登是地球送给所有直女和gay的礼物🌹（最后加玛陈才是演技真的很烂很烂的大女主啊😅……朱莉就是一个打酱油的…怎么还有harry styles 啊…
设定挺有意思的，思考的东西也是站在人类文明史而不是基于国别的那点子大小事（拉踩美队2/3的政治惊悚片路线），哆啦A梦有一集剧场版也是这个立意。不过闪回有点故弄玄虚了，悬念也没啥新意。原子弹那段罢美国站在反战的角度倒也没啥好说的，点打在科技创造大面积杀伤武器上是自洽的，中国人因为民族情感不能接受也可以理解。我不喜欢的地方在于这些神的心智真不大成熟，跟某个短评里写的在亚非拉做公益的国际生差不多，当然在MCU的语境下想做严肃讨论也不大可能吧（曾经的福斯漫威倒有可能），赵导想做成人向还是投靠DC罢hhh。
彻头彻尾的爽片，想要隐居田园的杀手凯特准备做完最后一单，一夜情被下放射物204，生命倒计时24小时，寻找黑帮复仇，全程暴力，一言不合就开枪，收获小跟班一枚。柠檬炸弹的广告很硬核～作为杀手居然不能看淡生死。
设定宏大内核薄弱，娱乐性勉勉强强主题呈现过于空泛，赵婷极具个人特色的影像被流水量产的漫威类型套路严重削弱。为照顾群像戏份平均导致人物刻画皆不够深入，主创疯狂夹带私货无语至极。LGBT黑人（永恒族）在广岛忏悔不该向人类传授原子弹，以此来反思日本人所遭受的伤痛，属实看笑了。
食人鲸的心脏也许重达百斤，
像是漫威为了讨好所有人 通过大数据筛出关键词拼出来的一部政治正确电影 华裔 韩裔 墨西哥裔 爱尔兰裔 印度裔 非裔 LGBTQ 老牌影星 演技派 颜值鲜肉 权游CP 平均人设和超能力 随手调侃DC大超 加上漫威大背景 感觉每个元素都不可能错 但是混合到一起 怎么看都刻意又别扭
John Snow, you STILL know nothing
7分。虽然确实全员PPT演技，但是哪有说的那么差啊（所以上到四星吧）……这是一部充分到字面意义上的正牌“全球电影”。虽然确实不太符合超英片类型范式（但是看到导演是赵婷，观影期待就得管理好不是么），但是在“世界搭建”方面是相当出色的，给出了一个对世界文明的反人类中心视角的解释并且还挺自洽的（这应该是赵婷带来外部文化视角吧），尤其是这次反派设定并不是出于邪恶或者愚蠢，而是在“不同的正义观”（美队3发展出来的）基础上星际“尺度”的物种间的冲突，逻辑很值得一说。当然槽点也很多，大女主感觉换成AB都没啥问题……以及赵婷这个谜之分散站位也太尬了。全片最大亮点应该就是宝莱坞以及电影自指的段落，估计赵婷拍得也很爽……
终于不再千篇一律，终于有了被观看的意义的漫威电影。无论是相关讨论的广度和深度都证明这是最有价值的漫威电影。问题还是显而易见，但和漫威其他电影都不在一个维度了。
完全可以入选2021最烂好莱坞电影，全方位的无聊和混乱，赵婷完全不会拍，要人物没有人物，要场面没有场面，角色塑造薄如纸，故事线干瘪，叙事拖沓无力，群戏全面崩坏，大部分时间就是一群人尬聊，念人物小传，白左开大会，一起煲鸡汤。光是本片差劲的程度，都应该重启漫威的这个阶段。
因为要一次过讲永恒族的起源背景，天神的目的，永恒族的使命，还要从几千年开始讲起，把所有故事缩短，全部只能讲一点点，就变得有点散，甚至还要用一场打斗来介绍他们每个人的能力，整体不够紧张，跟终局之战比真的差很多。但希望接下去的二部曲，三部曲，会慢慢朝终局之战那样，看到故事，情感之余，也能让人对这一系列有所不舍。最帅还是安姐，为了安姐，暂且给个四星。
叛变来叛变去，跟闹着玩似的……巨神冻结有绫波丽内味了
【B＋】远超预期，比《无1之地》好太多。赵婷想要太多了。1.居然第一次看到了几乎没有什么嘴炮的漫威，严肃的想要探讨人类历史。2.试图尊重每一个人物，几乎要把全队人都做上完整的弧光。3.居然能在漫威里看到床戏。。4.🌈也非任何噱头，居然有实打实的同性接吻镜头。5.第一次在漫威如此大方的把角色牺牲。。还不止一次。。6.第一次感到政治正确的必要性，有色人种与残疾群体都被放在了正确的位置。7.叙事结构与野心上也与之前的漫威体系完全不同。在对抗中拿下的成果必然不尽人意，但对抗本身已经足够让人敬佩。
