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".
小孩并不幼稚，是没有利益和权力的的诱惑，反而更清醒，也不畏惧权力，敢于说真话。
想象力贫瘠，剧情烂俗，动画电影做成这样，玩球。
是的，如你所见这部电影具有一切海上冒险题材所需的元素：神秘、怪异、险恶、喜剧、动作，精彩的配乐，外加媲美皮克斯的精致画面。剧情紧凑，高潮迭起，让人全神投入直到片尾字幕滚动。
再次证明网飞剧本真的是大数据生成。给小孩子看看很好，peace and love...
三星半。还行。但人物形象和海兽形象都不特别，剧情过得去但不精彩。
我觉得挺好～轻轻松松直给，虽然最后文戏还是弱了一点～
看到半小时结束我信誓旦旦说，接下来肯定是掉到海里的药品让怪兽岛上的怪兽集体发狂然后冲向白石城堡，镜头一转展示那个女巫的过去，因为一些原因跟皇室结仇，所以蓄谋已久正好等到老船长送上门来……面对袭来的海兽雅各布和小女孩救下了小红，一起阻止了发狂海兽破坏人们的居住地然后再海兽和人类相互和解吧啦吧啦，我觉得我这个都比他那个强行生硬升华的结局要好。
这些从小就被灌输跨物种都是好朋友的美国小朋友为什么长大后组成了一个啥啥都对立的美国。
故事虽不新颖，全程几乎在意料之中，但也没有故做噱头，主要是美术配色深得我心！！结尾确实处理的不好，主角仇恨放下得太快，群众接受得太快，百年阴谋显得小儿科……
冲政治隐喻多加一颗星。。虽然现实中人们不会那么容易改变立场。。。
叙事下的世界，谁有讲述权，谁就有世界的掌控权……
继驯龙高手之后又一次被感动了 人和自然之间的矛盾有多少真实 多少是以讹传讹
怎么肥事，最近看的都想给五星。这导演做了我一直心心念的事，自从看过《黑镜》某集之后，就也想能把所有的人生能完整记录重现。结尾出租车上一帧一帧一张一张一段一段时光倒放，爱了。其实女主没那么爱男主吧，不过这没什么所谓，你把整部电影当成一大的vlog，就品出好了来。这世界真的有平行空间和分支剧情吗？说不定呢。
十分“恶政隐”了哇哇。故事毫无意外，作画也很敷衍——也就是没钱。低配迪士尼吧。
故事有个不错的底子，但设定不够细致，没讲清楚的事情很多，两个小时都没讲完，可见片子暴露的问题了。但蓝宝有点可爱是真的，于是多给一颗星（看完觉得国产动画电影要做到这个水准都还是很难啊怎么办
动画的制作水平很高，但后半部分剧情直接稀烂，毫无逻辑可言
在流媒体的剧场版动画中，这部的制作水平算不错的。如果是在院线上映的话，巨兽的种类会更多一点。
太老套了 不适合成年人观看 一个六岁的小女孩动摇了一个二十多岁一直坚持的信念
海怪可以多发掘一些，剧情比较老套，高潮破坏港湾特效很好。
2022年7月8日：期待的《隐入尘烟》今日上映就去影院观影；感兴趣的《咒》今天网飞上线就纳入观影计划；晚上在和外甥一起看完《大白！》后发现今年3月标记想看的《海兽猎人》（《超能陆战队》《海洋奇缘》导演之一克里斯·威廉姆斯的新作）也是今日网飞上线，于是偏爱动画片远胜恐怖片的我就选择先和外甥又一起看了这部《海兽猎人》。—— -我们的书本，我们的历史，都是谎言。我不相信海兽曾在我们的海岸作乱，全都是故事，他们所虚构的故事。好几代以来，他们教我们要痛恨海兽，派出猎人消灭它们。海兽学会畏惧我们、痛恨我们，所以它们还击了。-你凭什么诽谤中伤国王和王后？你没资格说话！-我当然有权利！我家好几代以来都是猎人，都为了你们而光荣死去了。你们的王国是建立在他们的鲜血，还有它们的鲜血之上。……
