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".
永瀨正敏竟然只是在打醬油。
叶跟着乘客下车，突然被不知从何处传来的踏步声吸引，叶不知不觉走到声音的源头，竟看见正在台上起舞的照生。 时间年复一年倒退，电影刻画照生和叶的爱情起点及相遇一刻，与两人一起
没有那么好，也没有那么不好，平平淡淡中的真实，倒叙的手法会有回想的沉浸感，海洋馆、摩天轮下、午夜街头，感谢可以回想……
人生就是一列开往坟墓的列车，路途上会有很多站，很难有人可以自始至终陪着走完。当陪着你的人要下车时，即使不舍也该心存感激，然后挥手道别。
喜欢水族馆的戏份、喜欢依偎在一起吃蛋糕的戏份、喜欢天台放烟花的戏份，谁都喜欢看甜甜的恋爱，现实却有着太多的分道扬镳。希望更多的不是只是稍微想起。池松壮亮真的好会演，好喜欢看他演戏，舒服自然。
哦喂哦喂，怎么回事啊，总是遇上这些爱啊分开啊之类的电影，到底能不能走出阴影啊，给我适可而止吧，哎。
倒序看起来似乎没那么悲伤。水族馆跳舞真的好有爱！
好痛苦的观影体验，前半部分扎刀子，后半部分拔刀子……在表演和画面上都很有“电影质感”，看完想给很多电影减一颗星（此处拉踩花束恋）。有好多喜欢的片段，印象最深刻的是出租车里吵架的长镜头和结尾的跳舞（和背后的尾崎世界观）。看完的本人：双目无神大脑空白……
今年呢。
一段感情不知何时开始，却记得何时结束。从慢慢的喜欢，到果断的决绝。分手后我会回忆我们在一起的日子，但渐渐的我只能想起一些。
倒叙，那该死的回忆。故事从7/26/2021那天的东京开始，也让我出戏的回忆起了中国代表团那灾难性的一天。
陈正道是真的把审查标准摸透了，观众角度能从少年少女的互动中获得乐趣和悲伤，而从解读影片层面，又包含着对青春期人群情感的关注、性取向的探索、得与失的微妙辩证关系。父母对待情感关系的副线，拿捏得当，既是成人化的角度补充，也对少年情感的追寻进行了有利佐证。片末电音节郑宇星和陈辰的对话内容，把影片的质素整体抬升，不再拘泥于青春二字。吴磊找到了现阶段最适合他，也是其个人非常重要的一个角色。拥抱你，会不会更寂寞。拥抱自己，不再会孤单。
总的来说，没有特别多感觉，有点平淡，比我的日常生活还平淡。
虽然但是，可能爱情还是一种美好的存在吧。看这部电影确实能代入的感受到一些，挺不错的
B+不错，挺好的，倒叙所展现的情感也表现出来了，有的段落拍的挺迷人的，让我会心一笑，当然一些情节设计还是稍显刻意了，结尾不太喜欢，其实就停在他们初次认识的那天晚上，就留在那个舞蹈的小巷子里，其他留白，情绪真的就挺好的了，现在这个它为了完成一个规整的闭环，又回到开始了，对我来说情绪就有点下去了，
很不错，开车的女主好像《驾驶我的车》的感觉
时间线从分手开始倒放也太伤人了 无法释怀的人也无法和好
剧透：蔡依林的歌，结构有效，卡司浪费，比较无聊，半点叹息没有，只想赶紧完了算了
是稍微想起一些呀，倒叙的形式，也是记忆一点一滴，咏进脑海的过程。回想过去是这样的，由近及远，一层一层泛起涟漪，一圈又一圈，最后波动得整个心都湿漉漉的呢。
如水溫柔，就像聽兩個主角在平靜描述那些愛過又獨自過的片段，很清淡卻100%在談戀愛的電影。神片段是初遇的飛翔和北極熊。コロナのなかった頃をちょっと思い出しただけ。
