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".
如果导演和编剧不能处理人类复杂情感可以不拍，白瞎这个好题材
这是个科幻片吧，岩洞探险，雨天徒手攀岩，从悬崖峭壁直接能跳上飞机，感觉没点超能力真不行😱煽情的部分也太刻意了，老爷子而且最后被踩一脚就掉下去了太不符合前面营造的无敌人设了！！
在重金属乐队里融入大提琴确实新鲜，而且效果还不错。喜欢那句：让他们跟风去吧，风潮来来往往，我们永垂不朽。ps.为啥帅哥只露了个屁股，我要看正面！正面好吗！
朱一龙演技很棒，哭戏很能打动人，有几段动作戏不太真实
纪念2021年9月11日郑州幸福蓝海影城下午四点二十首映场
1.玩摇滚你得有个有钱的爹，2.医美真的很赚，3.玩摇滚不用抽烟喝酒烫头……
各个叙事线之间太过松散，卢小靳为啥自己一个人跑到小山沟去了？是因为地质变化炸了一个山，炸错了从而导致县城可能被毁么？留白的太多了，故事后半的逻辑没办法清晰直观的看懂。
特效不错，中国特色灾难片，就是剧情有些杂，亲情爱情家国情，什么都不能少，也就不突出
片中每一位演员的演技都可圈可点；小洪敏锐认真的工作态度，不畏艰险奋勇抵抗的基建精神；老洪不顾再次塌方的危险一次次下到地下解救群众；丁总饱含热泪地下达炸隧道的决策；小靳收到小洪安全获救的笑容；还有何工，还有一大群普通又不普通的基建人，一场电影看下来，眼泪流了几波；在实景和特效结合的视听盛宴下，人在大自然面前简直不堪一击，但是基建人“人民至上，生命至上”的口号创造着一个又一个生命奇迹！致敬每一位基建者，中国铁建yyds
9.17。没有那么好看。但是感人。最后片段，与爱人的最后一通电话，盘旋空中的直升机回来救援战兵，最后为了生的希望，奋力奔跑。炸药爆炸，浴火重生。拽下平安链，扔下山崩地裂的山谷，给永远留在山底的父亲。
为什么改名字…skullfucker!!感觉有点浪费时间🫠
6.5分，标准的灾难片，感觉又回到了宏大叙事的状态，前半段很好，每一个节奏点都走的精准到晚，高度的凝炼紧凑，有一气呵成之感。黄老师和朱一龙配合的很好，从头到尾张弛有度。焦俊艳和陈数也完全不像演员，更像是两位真实的铁建工作者。可惜中间开始剧情出现拉胯，在探水寻出口那一段运用原生家庭元素，多少有点不太自然。黄老师的老洪作为一个已经退休的铁道兵牺牲在茫茫的大山深处着实让人惋惜。
感觉几个地方煽情的有点莫名其妙。。不过挺喜欢焦俊艳的
这部电影立意还是很棒的，最后纪念铁道兵的黑白小短片给我看哭了。但是中间各种强制煽情真的太尴尬了hhhh
一群演技很棒的成年人，在玩儿小朋友过家家似的世界大战的游戏。
黑化的大提琴太帅了！为什么中国还没有这种类型的电影呢，下课之后补习，家庭作业，各种各样的事情，校园的情歌也好，中国校园里必是爱情且不能终的结局
小伙子帅呆了，这要是在80年代，估计就是国际巨星了。在遭遇了一系列的倒霉后，终于在舞台上找到自己。
开局震撼，后期感动，只有中国人才知道灾难面前中国人的大爱和责任，演员演技都很在线，每个人都能给人代入感，我看电影很少哭了，但这个片子给我的感动，震撼，亲情，爱情，无一不让我激动
一大堆感情戏男主演技很差，在感情戏中就像读稿机器，丝毫没有真情实感
里面非常美式高中的桥段我个人不是非常感冒，但是演出的画面是真的帅炸了！
