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".
电影本身拍的十分一般，在插句题外话，这给字母歌捧的有点高了
电影过于流水账，但的确被字母哥一家的故事打动了。
影片展现非法移民寄人篱下的生活，他们堵上一切来到NBA，最终收获成功，字母哥一家人真是传奇。
绿巨人死侍卡魔拉，漫威演员再就业or互相介绍工作。拍得像给小学生看的寓教于乐，剧本像是小学生作文被迪士尼拿去优化，“我也想不明白怎么解决，最后把它炸了吧，再加点简单爱情加点打斗动作加点亲情完美可以下生产线了”是不是以后电影里的夫妻都是黑白配了？现在不放点80s摇滚就不会拍动作戏了？我爱RR，RR演技真好 眼里全是戏，虽然演什么都是嘴贱但我毫不在意（嘴贱小孩虽然萌但嘴贱一点也不可爱。相比杨之后对我来说这才叫软科幻，用科幻外衣包裹一个陈旧无聊的故事
很励志！但是电影排得很一般，感觉拍成纪录片会更好！
一人得分，全家得分。字母哥都有记录片了，库里的记录片还远吗？
没看懂安妮博林这个意象，戴安娜和安妮有什么相似的地方吗？以小见大当然不错，可是戴安娜去世也没多久，电影和历史形象的差距有点远。心理描写刻画得不错，那种压抑的氛围真是太好了，短短三天，真度日如年
第3498-解开了我一直不太了解有点迷惑的问题，就是戴安娜为什么离婚。
最近看了两部NBA的传记电影，蛮好的，很鸡汤，谢谢你
Yeah, well, when a bad idea is the only idea, it becomes a great idea.
科幻逻辑基本停留在“网大”水准，谈不上自洽但还看得过去。意外的是有几场文戏挺不错，加上喜剧效果尚可，几位演员之间也有化学反应，106分钟时长看下来基本满足预期。个人很喜欢“爱自己”这个内核之一。
在完全不知道是讲什么的电影的情况下，单凭作为小贱贱的死忠粉这一点就毫不犹豫地去看了。看完的感觉：既是预料之中也是出乎意料的喜欢。time travel+family reunion +the second (or third)myself，基本上囊括了所有最爱的topic。虽然集合了小贱贱和Ruffalo两位最喜欢的演员，但小朋友的出演缺是最大的亮点。开头处Mom: you’d better think about your future because future is coming. 结尾处Adam: but it’s your future… Dad: No. you’re my future，我就要为你五星好评！
和同期的必胜球探来比较的话，差了蛮多。前者更让人感觉到球员的努力与经理人的拉扯，两者的关系让人更泪目。而这个，运气？打篮球时的技术也看不出来，八分钟攻防转换也是教练的台词...扬尼斯是个好球员，但这电影肯定算不是好电影.
《王者之路》展现励志者成功路上面临各种压力，生存，亲情，成长，希望，忠诚，机遇等等…是的，这是一部非常棒的电影，人只有自己足够努力，剩下就交给上帝了！
很温情很糖水，也很肖恩利维，但总体上第三幕还是差很多，跟铁甲钢拳也有着不少距离
Une grosse publicité maniérée du paysage allemand, de Chanel, de KFC, de tout ce que tu veux sauf Diana...
根据现雄鹿34号字母哥杨尼斯.阿德托昆博 故事改编
和儿子们“逃出”庄园的快乐打动了我，与一个小时前的压抑、自残和“作”相比较，这样的快乐显得太美好了。
一个人的成功是一家人的荣耀，我希望你永不放弃
时间论点好像太随意了而且没有悖论…就当爆米花电影看吧，顺便吐槽一下IGN评分，一个评游戏的评电影，好片评低分，烂片评高分，这部给了9分…跟着相反的来看估计就行了…
