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".
5.5分。吴京和章子怡的部分超出了我的预期，徐峥的部分整体而言最像个电影该干的事儿（尽管有些许拙劣模仿韦斯·安德森的痕迹），沈腾则尬出了我的预期（大约也跟我对他的期待最高有关）。
上一部剧情杂乱无章，007在全世界跑酷。这一部剧情聚焦，连贯流畅，战斗场面都是为了服务剧情本身，情绪起承转合都有根有据，最后一幕邦德望着天空的导弹化做炮灰还颇有几分感慨。丹尼尔·克雷格也算有始有终，与《皇家赌场》前后呼应，也算是一个完满的收官。
四个单元各有优缺点，但整体还算比较饱满，总结起来就一句话，这个系列终于结束了...
很惊喜，很开心看到我和我的父辈比之前两部拍得更好。特别想夸诗这个故事，很高兴看到更多从女性视角出发的故事，很细腻，很动人。乘风和诗是最喜欢的两个故事。100分。
抱着建国大业的期望值来 给了我惊喜 章子怡那段太好了
2021年第25部 丹尼尔·克雷格 第六任邦德，邦女郎：蕾雅·赛杜
骑兵：4.0/10.0
主题曲我好喜欢，以及只出场不到15分钟的拉丁妹妹也太可爱了，仿佛商业片常餐流水席上突然出现一颗异域风味的酒心巧克力。
鸭先知：故事完整流畅有高度，看着感觉舒服，局部场面令人会心一笑，尬的恰到好处。
第一个故事太过拉胯，吴京片子中对集体主义崇高感的强调和对个人英雄主义的追求和我的价值观相冲，乘风牺牲时我被气得哇哇哭。第二个故事讲得太好太好了，章子怡的美貌演技毫无疑问，做导演的才华也非常令人惊艳。第三个故事很“小聪明”，深度谈不上，轻松快乐还可以。第四个故事是很典型的“开心麻花”式喜剧，即使知道故事的发展走向，也忍不住随着里面的人物又哭又笑。沈叔叔和马丽真的好可爱呀~
高过预期，尤其章子怡的部分～
差不多60岁的Daniel动作戏还这么拼啊？意大利那段是整部戏最好开的动作和飞车场面，尤其是摩托冲上大概6-70的斜坡那幕！而全场最佳最吸睛的还是Ana，无论美艳、动作还是气场，短短十几分钟惊艳全场！后面森林战和岛战其实是弱了下去，黑人女007实在没有什么记忆点也没什么人物性格。悲剧英雄式结尾还是挺壮烈的。
再见，丹叔。再见，007。现在你可以好好休息了，You have all the time now.
沈腾导演的真的拉低了整部片子的质量，徐峥的搞笑成份很自然，吴京部分很热血，章子怡的部分很感人。
邦德融在炮火中，为了拯救爱人和世界，完成了属于英雄的辉煌谢幕！再见了，丹尼尔邦德
“人生在世，应该生活，而不该只是为了活着。我不会为了活着而虚度光阴，我会用尽我生命的每一分每一秒。”
看的点映，先是听的阿菲的歌，就觉得非常大气有大爱，电影有四部分前两个很感人，沈腾和徐峥的还是非常搞笑，看完电影再听阿菲的这首歌更加感动
什么诗啊，现在需要战斗。
《乘风》最糟糕，吴京的状态也肉眼可见的差。其他三个还能看。
是让平凡的我
