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".

哥哥問弟弟：如果馬拉多納加入那不勒斯和與小姨上床之間做選擇，妳會怎麽選，弟弟說我選擇馬拉多納。“上帝之手”不僅僅是足球界的一個梗，也不僅僅是讓黃健翔被迫辭職的“意大利左後衛”，更是蔚藍海岸小鎮青年的精神啟蒙。
如何构建数字鸿沟，信息茧房？一个手机外加社交媒体。《外星人ET》电影的变体。全方位展示恐怖科技产品，如何让全球青少年自杀率、抑郁症患病率迅速提高…没手机淘汰了多少人？没钱买皮肤淘汰了多少人？没有社交货币淘汰了多少人？最恐怖的是，电影结果是，没朋友的人，科技巨头造一个给你当朋友。人类走向虚拟化？
就是这些电影 都让人他妈的不爱看电影了。。。
学校里面孩子们拷贝解锁机器人限制是高潮，之后感觉就趋于平淡了
小男主的一切行为我都不能理解，就算是个小孩子这样的情绪反复也让我焦躁，我对小孩的忍耐度太低了……阿荣无敌可爱，不能接受它就这么消失了，社交女孩的猫型机器人的表情我也很喜欢
当然了，虽然小白长得可爱，但跟大白在风格上，包括建立友谊的主线都太像了，关键还没有《超能陆战队》做得好玩，所以挺失望的。
后半段的私人情感叙事不仅是对前半段费里尼式的狂欢影像的反叛，也是导演本人对其创作脉络的一次反思和重组。创作的痛点究竟是来自于故乡本身还是离开故乡的找寻，灵感究竟是枯竭还是被主观抗拒，索伦蒂诺用影像叩击着自己，和回忆的痛与隐秘和解。
明明是一个这么不新鲜的故事，可我还是被感动的一塌糊涂。或许是因为在这个信息横飞的Z时代，这部电影正好借着一帮高中生的样子映射出每一个社畜的孤独和渴望交心的朋友吧。小主人公首尾呼应的境遇，和他不同的社交状态，也许是这部电影带给我们最好的启示。
那不勒斯太美了，让人想纵身跳入大海，然后爬上一艘小艇，朝天空发射红色的烟花。我太爱这部电影里的小提琴配乐了。
7.5/10.0。对那不勒斯和球王的追忆不及前作中阿尔卑斯山和罗马城的众生相。受限于自传题材，费里尼式新现实主义梦境的想象力被大打折扣。但这部片子依然精确保留了《绝美之城》巅峰之作的些许柔软隐秘的影子：少年、地中海海岸、启蒙的姑娘。索伦蒂诺作为意大利古典风格的传承代表，与大洋彼岸的马力克似乎构成了应对虚无的两面：前者是构建新现实主义的半真半假，后者是借用摄影机而抽离的第三只眼。
真情实意才是朋友交往的基础，小白和大白有点像，都是我们的好朋友。
这个主题非常当代。但设定本身都是一眼看上去就有问题的，再用一个故事来扳倒和翻转也没什么必要。
想到我的八十年代，想到我的父母，想到我的亲戚们，想到小时候常去的电影院，想到能想起来的那些小时候遇见的怪人，想到那些再也没有见过的朋友和玩伴，想到我喜欢的歌和不离身的随身听，想到同学家很像法比托屋里的磁带架子，想到我不喜欢的马拉多纳的那不勒斯队，想到我喜欢的荷兰三剑客的AC米兰队，想到宿舍楼顶那个不眠的夜晚，想到那些以为忘掉的往事…
