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".
太太太太太nb了，改造人故事就像游戏 我爱cult
剧情：为几段视频故事的混剪
下水沟鼠人+棺材丧尸+硬核机械人+血爆漂亮国
伪纪录片的形式和题材没有结合的很好，全程都感觉套了一个美图秀秀里的非主流滤镜在拍摄，相比较而言更喜欢疯狂科学家那个故事。
最好看是邪恶博士那part，真的很邪.... 这系列最好看目前还是2
我靠，太他妈…过于恶心了，但有点好看。我不就爱看恶心的吗？！想把前面的都看了。
这次复古玩到底了，镜头整一个模糊加信号干扰画面，但是可以作为超稳微云台广告播出了，94年的录影机防抖功能做这么好也是绝了，不过剧情真的和病毒一样越来越无聊甚至不动脑了，单纯靠视觉冲击，尤其是人和机器结合那个故事，太赛博朋克了，加上精致的服化和特效，感觉这系列的视效审美一流，只可惜这几个故事都太无聊，完全没有二的惊艳和有趣。
好邪典！第三个故事的主观视角有很强的代入感和悬念感。第一个故事的jump scare着实吓着我了。
本片的政治意图更加明显，而且不同于七年前的前作 Viral，这次的现实讽刺看起来更加成功。
What the fuck...印尼那个片段很适合做游戏，仅此而已。
口味算是略重，反倒是贯穿全片主线警察的故事最无趣。
感觉比之前好看点，但还是在看机器人大战就困的睡着了，这东西还真就是脑洞，开好了有层次才显得好看
区别于录像带系列的完整叙事的分段式故事。开头的神秘编号和挖眼珠营造了诡异气氛，下水道硫酸鼠人＋守灵女孩遇诈尸＋疯博士人机实验＋反动派生物见光死炸弹＋呼应开头的“看录像必死”诅咒。分段叙事前三个故事都还不错，气氛＋叙事到位，吸血鬼炸弹那个设定没看懂。整体属于完成不错的B级片
播新闻播到吐🤮，哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈～这是个搞笑片吧
挺不错的，尤其是第三部人机杂交这个最有创意。当然整体格调不高，但这种电影就是用来撸的，爽就行了。
6.2/10怎么说呢，整体其实挺无趣的，感觉纯粹是为了伪而伪，故事也不新鲜，就这样的时长分配都没讲出什么东西，可见内容是如此的空虚。
还是一如既往的晃到头晕的伪纪录片风格。因为设定是94年所以画面老旧模糊不高清这说得过去，故事123都挺不错的，惊悚的氛围感渲染的很好，最后一个故事特别难看，又吵画面又晃也没看懂剧情。总体来说挺不错的
没有特别明显的拉低分数的，可能鼠人稍微差强人意。印尼Timo的疯狂博士改造人这个拍得了得！第二部邪教也是他拍的！都可以扩展成独立电影不说，一般恐怖片没有什么探讨的，他拍的里面居然会讨论人性以及伦理道德小哲学层面。恐怖的外衣，不乏内涵。牛。
6分。很血腥，除了人机结合那段，其他故事一般。
港真其实没必要非得弄个从头串到尾的故事在中间儿做衔接...
