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".
有些电影就是看了就看了，不知道说什么好，可能是看了个寂寞吧。
打戲不行，套招太明顯，刺殺計劃完全無腦，李美琪動作沒説服力，塞繆爾越來越油膩。
典型的套路化的复仇杀手，但戏剧张力明显不足，所有人都是脸谱化的工具人。唯一的亮点是前半段的伦勃朗，亦正亦邪，立场不明。Maggie确实上年纪了，再演这种内心单调的美人杀手就有些太浅薄了。
流水线作品 演员和导演都受制于剧本和人物本身的问题 几场比较干净的动作戏勉强可看
挺不错了，看看马丁坎贝尔再次出山之作，还能看到老到面部都下垂的罗伯特帕特里克和怎么老都不变样的杰克森，要是请得动元奎做些凌厉风格的动作设计就更棒了
6.0 无脑嗨的那种，文戏无聊到可以扣到2星地步，不过最近太缺无脑嗨了
这种复仇电影的类型有点另类，因为其中的情节包括与仇人上床。颠覆了。
剧情只能给三颗星，再单独给Maggie Q一颗。
简直瞎了我的眼，这玩意儿也能拍成电影？女拳？整治正确？拜托你们也找点好的剧本来宣传这种垃圾行不行。
好莱坞出品，却有港片的味道，情节混乱，人物动机不明，动作设计没啥创新，女主角瘦弱的身躯很难让人信服表现出来的力量。最感慨还是，Maggi Q还是很美，但是Maggi Q老了。
可乐 薯片 冰淇淋 投影仪 哈哈哈哈啊哈 welcome back my movie time
除了童年时的女神以外也就没啥别的了，逻辑太二逼了。
实在是太无聊了，真的很催眠，不倍速播放真的是看不下去。故事真的是一团糟，叙述混乱，打戏也很乏味，很老套，不过男女主打着打着就x上了是啥逻辑？！搞笑呢！最后的结局也是很仓促的就结束了，幸好巩皇没有接这个剧本，否则，真的是晚节不保！
7+，爽片，节奏好，尼基塔神勇依旧，安保也忒儿戏了，保镖都是星际玩家吧，监控室的小姐姐我可以。
就是一部爆米花动作片，值得一看。
你选择上我还是杀我？然后鸟人与李美琪就开搞。妈的你以为你们是布拉德皮特和朱莉的《史密斯夫妇》嚒！无脑的垃圾电影，浪费爸爸时间！
像过气的明星 要啥没啥 但好奇心会让人再看一眼
看完这片的第一件事就是立刻打开页面翻出来看看编剧到底是哪个臭傻逼，结果，我操，理查德温克？！这尼玛能是写过《机械师》和《敢死队2》以及《伸冤人》的编剧干出的事？真不知道这货是嗑多了还是喝多了或是撸多了胡诌出来的本子，本来还想骂马丁坎贝尔的，想想也算了，老头一把年纪混饭吃也不易，不过说真的他不出啥意外未来几年就得跟西蒙韦斯特和雷尼哈林一样来天朝拍片了，天朝毕竟是荷里活过气导演恰烂钱的集中营！
Martin Campbell的作品還是有點質量，保證了節奏的不崩，中段開始敘事語焉不詳，角色動機模糊不清，究竟被誰追殺、為何追殺，人物沒頭沒腦亂殺人，全靠著一場場沒邏輯又臭又長的文戲給霸佔了！Maggie Q終究擺脫不了美豔女殺手的形象，可惜本片動作戲敷衍稀少，毫無亮點，沒能成為自己的John Wick，還要與70的Michael Keaton硬湊couple，毫無化學反應，只覺得噁心。廢戲太多，全靠卡司撐完。
黑老头装死有点赤焰战场，救走特训有点致命黑兰，打架上床有点史密斯夫妇，坏人换身份发家也是似曾相识，哪哪都熟悉哪哪都不对，最后本来能全身而退非得逼逼一通同归于尽，对着开两枪的结尾看窗户影子也是太傻嘚儿了，不知道活与不活的原则是啥，那么想死就别打了，装逼杀人的时候直接送了算了
