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".
开头的飙车老三样玩法太长了，后面娃的剧情刻意而为之。其他几派人物全部打酱油。
节奏明快、紧凑，飙车、动作、复仇都有了，不失为一部合格的商业动作片。但是好几个情绪点前面都渲染到位了，但是最后一击有点意犹未尽的感觉。应该跟主角是女性、还是接近普通人，开挂要克制有关。小男孩挺帅的。要是女主能换成韩孝周，我就给打满分，不知道为啥，第一时间想起她来了。20220412
这也长的太像那个谁了...最后还是有点高潮
商业爽片。剧情一般，节奏还行，飞车追逐打斗搏杀刺激度佳。三星半
怀旧宝马&飙车小姐姐，这手动挡玩的溜，手刹拉的飒
剧情挺俗套的 但是动作戏和音乐都非常带感 朴素丹很不错阿 反派黑警有点这个杀手不太冷的反派的感觉 最后咋活下来的没弄懂
故事套路但是拍的节奏叙事都不错，游走边缘地带的特送+黑警交易+暴力追击，爽片元素齐飞cool
2022 No.60 / 6.5 / 3920 Last：青魇
标准商业片，结尾很完美 其实我觉得就这样牺牲也可以。小男孩很萌。
赛车一族可看，赛车动作戏不错；爱车一族可看，老款车型的容光焕发也很不错。其余就有些贫瘠了
这个女的好像还演过一个韩国的cult片。叫魔女。感觉他的戏路有点女版马东锡的意思。这个电影吧。像很多看过的电影。，比如这个杀手不太冷，比如非常人贩什么的。。。看到开头就知道结尾。
棒球老爸就是脑子不好使，自己要干大事，跟着一起的儿子还傻得冒泡，告诉他什么能做什么不能做啊。为了拍电影也是费劲心思把人弱智化了。怎么想，女主都不是杀手男的对手啊，还是信息差，小看对手了。最后那么多小混混竟然打不过一个女的，真是，混子警察也是垃圾，还要拿小孩子做人质，
飙车戏是真的可以，但可惜最后不是用飙车来解决问题。韩国片里的黑帮给人的感觉就是又狠又弱智，碰见真正的杀手就是一帮弱鸡，比如觉醒后的女主就能群杀。小男主虽然挺好看的，但除了哭也就没啥能力了。不过一个孩子能在这样的情境下有这种反应也是挺真实的，起码孩子的心地还不错的。白钢铁这个角色挺有深度的，就是最后不够睿智，既然知道是对付的警察，又有监控，居然没个报警啥的，只能说导演想你死，你活不过三更。
还女版《大叔》，蹭热点都能蹭歪，女版《非常人贩》吧。朴素丹属于那种不算美艳但很耐看的类型，最大加分项，再用大叔萝莉配就显得落俗了。
对比之前看的好莱坞《小人物》强很多，大胆点说，就是女版《这个杀手不太冷》，感觉比《大叔》好看；现在韩国电影表现的很稳定，稳做亚洲第一把交椅。
韩国拍犯罪片真有一手，打斗场面干脆利落又暴力，飙车也很刺激，转折切换的镜头和摄影都还蛮讲究的，就是剧情太关注爽了，可以说剧情内容压根就没啥需要，反派的动机，女主的动机，配角的动机都不需要，反正就看场面就行。
几处动作片满分。韩国动作片就这点好一直没落下，干脆，写实。
有点像音乐剧，有教育意义，知道外面的世界危险与诱惑并存，善良的人真的很温暖，升华——就算希望像尾巴尖一样小，也绝对不能放弃。
我妹说好看，最后感动得哭了。不是很懂15后。😂ฅ՞•ﻌ•՞ฅ
10分钟能讲完的故事，硬生生用了108分钟，韩国思密达花了很多时间桥段来塑造人物，剩下的都是功能性套路的章节，其实是件好事，但是这类型的商业片过于拖沓就会影响观影过程，容易让观众产生无聊的感觉，而且女主整个形象气质，着实让我很难入戏，跟男版的大叔元斌相比差了不少，加之影片主打的车戏，也没有特别亮眼的设计中规中矩，还期待着片尾会有一场速度与激情，可惜啊
