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".
科幻+灾难的两者融合其实还可以了，地球外科幻片，地球内灾难片，影片整体也有不错的看点：假设月球撞地球的众多理论一一可视化展现，也许有些逻辑经不起推敲，但这种片子已经可以了，不过与导演之前的作品《2012》和《后天》比较，略显平庸。
还是很熟悉的灾难风格。电影理论取自比较老的一个月球空心假想，而这部电影灾难的起因并没有往外星人上面引导，反而构筑了一个更加庞大的世界观，同时特效的制作依旧是一场视觉上的盛宴，这些都是值得去学习的。但是剧情依旧逃不出传统灾难片的模版，男主失意，后又被重新启用，在政府束手无策等待死亡的那一刻，主角所在的小队拯救世界，使人类的文明得以延续，其次无用的剧情太多，于文文的出现是个败笔，我感觉不到她的出现能够给剧情带来作用，还有最后主角儿子逃跑的过程，也许一方面使剧情变得更加饱满，但是也使观众减少了看下去的欲望。如今好莱坞的灾难片仿佛也到达了瓶颈期，反观从流浪地球和上海堡垒来看，中国科幻大片的特效已足以走上大银幕，但是剧情需要仔细推敲加油。同时看得出来导演有打算第二部的想法，希望能够跳出传统科幻片的束缚
感情线非常敷衍，装的不装了，就是老一套又来一遍，剧情是各种阴谋论乱炖啊，你放弃研究EMP武器的原因居然是没钱，绝了。而且外星人居然不会研究EMP武器？都会加强武器了。视角效果方面虽然海啸，地震，外星飞船什么都有，但是现在特效大片看多了，已经不能带给我什么巨大惊喜了。严重怀疑罗兰•艾默里奇当年在慕尼黑电影电视学院是不是成天翘课。这样下去拉不到投资了，这部电影都已经是拼盘投资了。
艾默里奇真的太喜欢毁灭地球了，然而在2022年封城期间看这部片子的感触也很不同：“毁灭吧！一起毁灭吧！”
挺喜欢这个故事的。人类造了月亮保护自己、延续基因，这才不愧自古到今如此多人用各种方式赞美月亮，月亮真亮，却不冰凉。不是每个电影都要上升到无常、无我状态才算好的，低级肤浅之快乐也能起调剂作用呢！豆瓣之坚持有时也太片面化了。不会片名真该改一下，不是陨落，是自救。
艾默里奇真的太喜欢毁灭地球了，然而在2022年封城期间看这部片子的感触也很不同：“毁灭吧！一起毁灭吧！”
导演：我采样我自己。扯淡的一批不过爽就完事了。哈利贝瑞怎么跟b局越来越像了 plummer长发神颜
特效质量风格不连贯，文戏注水严重节奏混乱人物散乱，情节过于套路毫无新意
可能是因为已经有心理预期了，所以没觉得电影特别烂。其实类似剧情我曾经设想过~>_<~
喜剧部分偏少，煽情感性的太多，讲道理看这片子都是冲着刘冠麟这活宝搞笑卖蠢来的，你搞半部戏让他反思后悔升华是不是太多了，他撑不住，观众也并不一定想看这个啊。然后女主这天降奇才直接能干翻宁毅的那种，是不是有点突兀缺少说服力，你好歹暗示点什么她也来路不明或者看过啥商业绝学也好啊，有点失望。。。
本来早早吃完药该睡了的，可是后面太精彩了居然多看了半个多小时，如果这是一部电影，我给他八分，因为它没有拍出电影质感和长度深度，明明可以拍的更好，却没有更加努力。这是一段对赘婿吉吉国王人设的巧妙过度，是对大圣娶亲，紫霞和至尊宝的致敬，是现代版的紫霞仙子和吉吉国王的故事，是王者荣耀紫霞和至尊宝的cp延展，是赘婿里的大圣娶亲，是现代的我们对紫霞和至尊宝今天的回答。
很好看，字面意义上的好看。很多年没在大银幕上感受这种简单纯粹的好看了，把人物的戏都剪下去可以在自然博物馆放的感觉。为了把大家想看的拍出来，剧情就不讲道理了，简单粗暴的把我们要看的攒出来一股脑儿一放，透着财大气粗！过瘾！
单论画面的话还是挺震撼，然后别的，还是就看看画面吧
即便我一直不太计较科幻片的科学逻辑，只要特效视觉看得爽就好。但你们这么忽悠我有点过分了啊！其他不说，地球的武器就能那么轻易摧毁外星人工智能？你们确定这不是在侮辱我的智商？气愤！
幸好没有去电影院花冤枉钱，剧情实在是烂啊（PS：其他国家干等死，只有美国人无畏去拯救世界，欧耶）
其实好看的！！！并不是烂俗网片的感觉，延续了赘婿的风格，给2做了铺垫 是好的，是在家消遣的片子
这种垃圾片还刷出个6分，自己觉得还有脸吗？
220404，2022院线#4，博纳瑶海龙湖IMAX
整挺好，但是就是没办法给四颗星，怎么回事儿呢，委屈。🥺
想看很久了是因为我初中也写过有关月球坠落的小小说。。。电影总的来说还是那一套，命题模板作文实在没什么意思，换一百个设定能套壳写出一百部类似的，而且人类起源那点简直鬼扯到不可思议，外星人祖先也就算了还黑一把AI我真服了。唯一出彩的是特效，海啸上天和月球内部的CG制作年度奇观，不过快进看完也就只能记住这些了
