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".
摄影很有风格，其余真的不行，每个形象都不三不四，所有人一直在叽叽呱呱，主要转折点莫名其妙，惊悚桥段多少令人想起低配版电锯惊魂……
开篇不错，整体镜头设计非常漫画风，哥谭的黑暗荒凉堕落肮脏也到位，五方表现人格障碍的角色时很有个人风格，但整个故事非常幼稚拖沓，对人物的塑造却很单薄，想象力匮乏，外加不合时宜的笑点和感情线，不值得出动Nivara。
看的IMAX，开始还觉得哥谭风景和故事悬疑氛围不错，可持续的黑夜和雨天，循环的配乐加上谜语人絮絮叨叨直接导致我睡着三次，其中包括最后打斗的时候，而且我下午还特别睡了午觉。是那么回事，谈不上好看。
太熟悉之前那两部猩球崛起电影，看前对本片可能存在的优缺点已有大致的预料。私心自然还是期望马特·里弗斯能带来一些说不上蜕变也能让人惊喜的东西，但依然还是没学会去扬长避短，持续依托直白的台词独白来渲染氛围和表达人物情感，无力施展影像本身的魅力，文本上也不做必要的减法。走出了上一代蝙蝠侠的阴影，可没能很深入地走进这一版主人公的内心世界，整体只能说功过相抵吧，的确让人愈发怀念诺兰时代的黑暗骑士。
我建议拍成长篇电视连续剧，才能宣泄编剧们源源不断的表达欲。而不是让观众坐在电影院长达三小时，连个大高潮都体验不到。
真情实感的做作和故弄玄虚，一流的摄影音乐讲了一个极其平庸的故事。罗伯特帕丁森的演技是个谜，你说他有吧，又好像没有，说没有吧，好像也不公平。
不能给太多星了，慢的我受不了了，快进都嫌慢。
一次别出心裁的重启改编。
视听风格突出到太文艺片，音响效果能把座椅震动成4D，蝙蝠侠不愧是年轻版，还拥有记日记的好习惯。 GOOD BYE〈 ？〉，无论是先出新《猫女》电影，或者出《蝙蝠侠与猫女》，我都可以！谜语人杀疯了，把谜语人塑造成了DC宇宙又一可敬的反派。
确定不是007？Gotham版Skyfall. 大侦探Bruce·Wayne. 保罗·达诺重回囚徒，你和我说那是科林·法瑞尔我是不信的。最好的是雨夜追车。
于是以为已经战胜了痛苦。
这也就比DC平均水平高一点点吧，评论区拿来跟诺兰比的真的看过黑暗骑士吗？思想高度完全不是一个level的好嘛。相比前作的哲学思考，新作就是一单纯的破案片，而且这个蝙蝠侠的智力和武力都不太高的亚子，一路被反派牵着走，永远比反派晚一步，最后也没有阻止反派阴谋，别说超英了，连普通的主角光环都木得，也就袍子的防弹能力还能体现身份。打戏打得很笨拙，追车戏还行但主要靠装备而不是技术，全身上下像哆啦A梦一样各种装备，最后洪水中掏出胸前的金属logo割电缆，咱煽情也不带这么煽的呀？有很多很俗套的剧情点，还自带slomo效果，就真的很尬，三个小时太长了，节奏这么慢除了装逼想不出其他理由。
开头很黑色，还挺惊喜的，可是超英总是要有大场面，有大场面就显得不那么黑色了；黑毛方蝙很emo(我比较喜金毛方)，画面很漂亮，所以总体上算是装逼成功吧。就想问问姐你搬家怎么只带一个毛，其他找领养了吗？
最大遗憾估计是看不到一哥下海了（。）给五星是因为让我重新找回了对欧美圈的信心，不再是简单炫技般的武器和装备，更没有讨好似的吐槽和幽默，而是认认真真讲述铺陈了一个好故事，更重要的是，在这个年轻的蝙蝠侠身上，我首先看到的不再是无往不利无所不能的超级英雄，而是一个挣扎痛苦且懂得恐惧的第一侦探，他还不够强大，这正是我为什么喜欢他。
风格很棒，但这次的蝙蝠侠在写实的大框架下，被塑造得太弱了，反派和蝙蝠侠都弱。写实到即便跳出这版蝙蝠侠的故事，单纯讲警匪或恐袭的片子也可能是很类似的感觉，超英在这里已经成为纯外壳了。
企鹅逆行连环roadkill，群警暴走高塔飞鼠，遗传精神病互相启发，“今晚我们都是谜语人”，论放下蝙蝠镖去认真经营韦恩集团的重要性。故事继承《小丑》烂透体制下的无政府主义狂欢，将独行枪客恐袭的现实思考植入超级英雄现象，如果能将反超级英雄的路子走得再彻底点就好了。虽然人物感情戏处理不错，但探案元素其实发挥一般。感觉五方这几年的文艺片都白演了，又被打回了《暮光之城》的半痴呆状态#大陆院线删减版
为了看大屏幕忍痛看了西语版，所以推理过程有些没跟上，比如在教堂那段，说的啥我都没听懂。。。这限制了我找bug的能力。。。
一个更像凡人的蝙蝠侠于我而言就是最好的版本.很欣慰终于有导演还能记得Detective Comics意味着什么.不虚此行的一次体验
好喜欢猫女！他的飞行服也太可爱了！在夜晚看起来更像鼯鼠了，我要马上看到这样的同人。
电影集合了所有我喜欢的元素。侦探，罪恶都市，略装B的分镜、特写等，还有足够老派的调色，密集而不烦人的配乐。很多年前我就在想如果七宗罪里的皮特作为一个支配故事的人，而不是牵针引线的工具人，会不会更精彩。今天看完，只能说各有春秋吧！
