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".
这个怪物也弱鸡了，女主啥也没干都怕，自己缩回去了……
怪物还蛮漂亮的，女主化身金刚女战士锤爆哥俩大概也就是梦里想想，怪物哪有放着美餐不吃的道理
可惜了，前面一大堆有的没的让一部优秀的恐怖片直接掉了一星，设计不错，中立邪恶的神的设计非常不错，献祭仪式再邪恶一点就好了，而且两兄弟作为邪神仆人神智没被污染实属差了点意思
不好看
分数：45
现实中悬疑，悬疑见人性，人性终现实，现实是残酷！
网费就是做怪物做的那么帅 别对恐怖片那么苛刻了豆瓣
average，average，average，大概是打发时间也要带着嫌弃脸看完的程度
执行上可以给5星，相当respect。但这个剧情和整体的观影感受....可能过于edgy了吧，不喜欢。
温水煮青蛙，还是有可圈可点的地方。几次虚实剪辑很不错，还算有导演个人特点的。那个箱子太像圣斗士的圣衣箱了…最后女主应该开始招租，只限男性了吧…事实上箱子怪不挑食啊，对女性真是满满的恶意…啧啧啧
怎么做到的运镜氛围场景都不错，甚至怪物也有意思，但剧情就是稀巴烂呢？啥都掺一脚显得格外四不像
不管什么妖魔鬼怪、残肢断臂等老套B级片噱头，本片最大的看点就是女主全程不间断的黄暴又搞笑的freestyle。这种即便是在最恶劣的处境下，也能随性嘲弄的性格太可贵了，女主应该去演女版死侍，如果真有这个人物的话。
故事讲得不太好，但是最后的怪物形象觉得可。本来以为引恶为战，结果是因恶而生。怪物的力量滋养恶人的欲望，欲望无尽杀戮不停。弑父杀母者堕无间地狱，谁说不是呢，她再也出不去了。
盒子怪还真是来者不拒啊，上了桌子的都咔咔的，别说腿横担起来还挺销魂。献祭梗揭开没有反转便进入剧情的垃圾时间，节奏还不错
有成万的美金，居然还要偷渡到美国，黑人同事三言两语骗钱，杀了这么多女生，以为只收女生祭品，原来男的也收。全场唯一的亮点就是怪物的设计
倒是很賤很瘋，但後續鏡頭太晃了ps.啥手機啊這麼防水
剧情冗长乏味，节奏拖沓，也就最后20分钟还算有点看头，看之前以为有多玄，其实就是个房东用活人献祭给怪物，被女主反杀继续成为献祭中间商的故事，但导演水平太差，这么个故事都拍不好，还夹带着少数族裔（非法移民）底层互害残酷现实和对“美国梦”的憧憬的白左价值观的输出，真是又恶心又讽刺。。。两星，不推荐！
故事没有深入，反杀也没什么逻辑。其实这部电影的剧情，还有很大提升的空间。
品质非常不错，奇幻+恐怖，悲观主义的结局。祭品并无反抗余地。
3.5。难得看到一个20分钟迅速进入主题，接下来全程wtf+卧槽的伪纪录血浆恐怖片。。。
