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".
相当于80年代的星战和漫威，remake和同框。儿童版和成人版都不怎么好看。
两个亚裔，在火烧岛上经历的艳遇，虽然不确定现实里亚裔同志的圈内受欢迎度，不过影片给我提供了一个可以幻想的空间。让长相平凡的人也能相信野百合也有春天😂。另外只想说，欧美人真的好懂浪漫。片末夕阳下的轻舞拥吻简直perfect
这片也真太死气沉沉了。。。。。。（in a bad sense
还挺好的，特别是用亚洲元素的角度来看有新意。傲慢与偏见真的是怎么改都觉得可以看下去。
导演其实还是蛮有野心的，找了近年大热剧的两个小演员以及大热电影男主，融合了剧情、喜剧、恐怖和青少年探秘，结尾找来前作老演员撑腰一波，要素的确多。除了致敬其实就是要你看起来爽，不错
这还不幼稚？这还不假？不老套？故事硬中之硬，为了拍一个电影而拍，不管是否为了致敬，这电影就算放到三十年前，依旧是一部把观众当5岁小孩的烂片。
拒绝txl刻板形象，拒绝矫揉造作，拒绝油腻不堪
conrad还是比这些“野鸡”演得好太多……
这里不存在要不要出柜的挣扎，也不存在被世俗用不同的眼光看待，而是展示即使在同性群体中，寻找爱情、伴侣、认可，其实也不是一件容易的事。但就个人观感而言，同志姐妹间去参加同志派对的场景，以及姐妹间的感情与撕逼状态，没什么特别的亮点，主角也一点都不好看。而且也不知道化妆老师干嘛去了，所有演员的皮肤状态差的一逼。
這個電影在電影院看應該還好，自己看就是狂翻白眼，男主男二的性格實在沒啥意思，就很煩自視清高實際半桶水的主角，還不如看Will和Dex，Charile和Will，或者Charile和Dex也不錯，都比主角幫有意思，支持這三個人交叉互搞開OF賬號
算是很有诚意的贩卖情怀，另外小女孩长的太灵了，如果翻拍哈利波特绝对要选她演赫敏啊！！！
非常真实的gay圈party生活集锦，但是这剧情要啥没啥，总是打擦边球，怎么支撑人看下去呢。
中规中矩的情怀之作，格瑞丝很萌很可爱，片尾曲很鸡皮疙瘩~
男主为了逼人搞对象以及自己搞对象，给人施加的压力太大了，需要去挂一个精神科的专家号，还要再买一个千斤顶，以防复发。
没看过前作，但挺有意思的。既然有前作的基础，那么那些老掉牙的配乐就合理多了。还是有些漏洞，不过好在Mckenna Grace够可爱，演得又出彩。系列重启，期待以后的续作。
有可能里面有美国本土梗，外国人看不出来。
看之前就知道片子的剧情，面对这样的电影，只是看看特效（如同水门桥），没看到84版的捉鬼，37年后，穷困缭绕的单亲母亲带着儿女来到这个不停地震的小镇里，外孙女发现了外公是曾经捉鬼队员，兴奋不已，半小时后就发现了小镇的鬼，还发现了捉鬼武器，和小伙伴们一起，来到洞穴里，见证了重生的魔鬼，一场战斗二十分钟，曾经84版的老朋友也来助阵，共同击败恶魔，外公影像般的存在应该就是刘慈欣所说的量子话的故事吧，故事很一般，春节只下载了三个电影来看，确实可以不看这一个的
我宣布，火烧岛是我看过最欢乐最可爱的同志片！其实根本不用那么苦大仇深嘛！感觉挺真实的啊，就像身边的朋友们。生活就是需要一些浪漫泡泡的调味啊，大家就是很在意旅行的所得啊，世界上就是有人自己搞不定还很捉急朋友的未来，比如我。
有些点还蛮好笑的，但最大的惊喜还是小女孩，也太可爱了吧！
(6.5/10)情怀满满，让人泪目。看完没啥想吐槽的，观感愉快。麦肯娜好评！棉花糖鬼鬼太可爱了！
