剧情介绍

  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".

    怎能如此拖沓 用过气的方法讲述一个关于未来的故事只是影迷的自嗨罢了

    索德伯格玩票性质的伪疫情题材电影,最后玩成小鬼当家了。佐伊的肢体语言好可爱,更期待她的猫女了!

    编导估计也觉得“小人物误撞破谋杀阴谋被追杀”的主线故事脉络实在过于老套乏味,硬是加入了『反向《后窗》式偷窥』、『窃听阴谋』、『患有户外恐惧症的主角』等熟悉的经典悬疑元素,然而融合的结果却是空有概念、硬拼乱凑;把语音助手的名称作为片名,原以为会是一出类似《鹰眼》、《机械公敌》的“智能科技反噬人类”式好戏,没想到竟是全片最鸡肋“工具人”;最后女主暴力反杀的人设转变更是突兀莫名,让人不禁以为导演急着赶回家吃饭,草草收局了事😰

    在后疫情背景下,用AI“kimi”的概念讲述了一个媒介焦虑、女性焦虑的故事,剧本、拍摄和表达很流畅,出门不出门成为女主的改变,而第一次出门的契机成为核心主题——女性互助与媒介反叛,是一部与时代同轨又反扣经典的好作品。

    很普通,集所有普通之大成。普通的故事:互联网从业者捕获前端音频数据被卷入谋杀案,强烈的正义感战胜自身的广场恐惧症出手搭救,虽说为迟已晚,好歹一桩大案要案宣布告破。故事的内核很工整,一方面是主角战胜了自我,另一方面为宅男宅女正名,宣告关键时刻死宅们都会作出对的选择,并特此提出表彰。观念当然是对的,但太普通,电影库中有无数个战胜某种精神障碍的故事。普通的人物设定:太普通了,因片名及涉及人工智能的高科技要素,观众会误以为再怎样也该是一部高智商片,比如每个人都特效加持、都是推进剧情不可或缺的一环,显然编剧的智力没办法高于角色智力,所有角色在叙事中的协同性和必要性都极其薄弱,让人觉得索然寡味,连看漫威人物神奇法力的期待都没有被满足。剪辑也很普通,普通到会认为剪辑师根本没动脑子。幸亏自己家看电影不花钱。

    智能音响也可以用作杀人武器,用悬疑故事再一次讲述对于现代科技的反思,部分镜头很有意思,例如耳机的效果,出门的急促感,挺有意思的。

    精彩的后疫情时代电影,人工智能,女权意识和心理惊悚各种议题都糅合在里面了,小巧精炼,给了各种线索。本该帮助被侵犯女性的组织成员助纣为虐,反隔离抗议者帮助女主不被杀手拖拽上车,讽刺极了。女主离开家再逃离回家的镜头真的让人眩晕心悸。最后片尾曲用了elastica的connection,好开心

    三星半。非常在我的审美偏好上 ,尽管女性表达如此直白,疫情背景如此生硬,你就看视听语言:如果室内戏的镜头调度还是一种不新鲜的顺滑感,那么出门后就是全程高能;声音设计非常巧妙贴合于「电脑电影」或「流媒体电影」。最后利用 KIMI 表达我们确实会被集权控制,但个体也有可能利用其本身反制,那个血手点赞直接笑死。
