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".
两女主角颜值不错，床戏很唯美！！！最后一句“我们再睡一次吧”笑死我了哈哈哈哈
宁静的氛围之下还有日本古老的故事，石狮子、大佛都活过来了，各种奇妙的事物让人觉得很有脑洞很奇幻。主旨有点浅显，人物的画风普通但是风景和音乐做的很好，瑕不掩瑜。
细腻，无比细腻
我还以为是校园纯爱电影，结果她们都有点不正常。
画面极美，治愈～ 生活很难，尽自己力所能及
山田杏奈演心机girl演这么好真没想到 导演在片子最后也放了一点点小心机 把自己处女作片名藏在了最后
如不能吞咽所有真实，便只能将自我放逐，三千世界尽为虚假，唯有舌尖火焰一瞬如炬。
以为爱菜酱配的是日和 所以一直在等她开口说话lol
美雪喜欢《电锯人》而不是少女漫，她喜欢西村也是阴郁心事重的型儿，爱向美雪坦白了原委，美雪在意的不是爱喜欢西村，不是爱骗她上床，而是爱的道歉不走心。要说爱是得不到西村就去占有他喜欢的美雪吧，可爱第一次把美雪衣服解开，亲的地方不是常见部位，而是美雪每天扎胰岛素的腹部……怪小孩们果然比较可爱～
种种小情绪捕捉到位，台词矫情，女主真是太心机，角色立得马马虎虎，不如女二完整，6。
大概是小森生活➕龙猫➕夏目友人帐这样吧，好想讲了啥又好像啥也妹讲～
还好坚持看完了。很喜欢最后那个镜头 特意多加两星 所以说未知全局不予置评 我很喜欢小愛酱的性格啊 父权社会大多数女孩有愛酱这么爱自己也好啊 虽然说美雪和愛一起喜欢西村这个看上去40的真让人😅 不过好在愛最后也明白了自己的心意 总之 这是一部奇怪的电影。而且日本人比我还丧 我觉得我可以活到50呢（看这部电影是回家后看的 烦的快死 妈一直进我房间 床戏也看得断断续续的 第二次床戏到结束还是刚刚在浴室洗澡看的 受不了了
故事情节平平淡淡，但是很多温情的内容，展现了向往的乌托邦生活。女主被治愈的过程没有很清楚，但或许就是在这种温情的环境中自然就慢慢自愈了吧。画面就不说了，通片都是壁纸。有很多可爱的情节，譬如船在水上走，是河童在推它；奶奶和那个神的对话；姐姐难过时候，妹妹依靠在姐姐身上。最后打怪的情节有人觉得太快了，我觉得正好，反正我是不喜欢明明知道怪会被打败，还一直在那里来回。
画面很夏日，剧情很小儿科。想象力属于意想之内，稍微想一下就会猜到的剧情，无聊，浪费两小时
原以为只是一部日系治愈动漫电影，没想到还掺加了神话色彩，奶奶一定是个可以控制式神的人吧！
虽然女主很腹黑，女二很软弱，但最后的信还是kdl
每个人都有不同灾后经历，“奇妙物”到来。
画面美到不行是真的，回忆片段的动画风格也好特别，很棒，这是绝对的。
宁静的让人觉得美好，色彩细腻美丽，也许一些平凡的小日子相加才是构成人美好生活的组合！
又是那种一群人没有动机地在规则里做不合理的事，日本人一贯擅长的变态小清新。三星半，理性让我选择了三星，但是感性上...我 真的！！看了些女同倾向电影，大部分的感想都是觉得好美好会拍，只有这部 第二个吻真给我看激动了隐隐感觉到性取向的浮动...
