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".
似乎是挺现实的题材，志趣相投的人成为恋人，随着时间的流逝加上生活的打磨渐渐失去了恋爱时的感觉，一人怪对方怎么还是学生时的天真，一人失望对方怎么会变成现在这样的无趣，然后互相忍让直到渐行渐远。但令我不解的是，明明分开后被迫同居的三个月看起来处得还挺好的，怎么之前在一起的时候反而无法忍受到一句话都不和对方说的呢？这真的是爱情吗？男女主在电影的后半段真的很难让人看出来有爱意了，只有互不沟通的冷漠。也许这是东亚人的通病，无法正面积极去传达自己的想法和情绪。但男女主的表演还是有触动到我，尤其是最后一场哭戏，能让人感受到那种无奈遗憾和释然。
2021.8.15 终于看完正片了，虽然真心话是老版yyds，新版emmm何必呢，但再也没有以后了😢
1 香党丽党争了几十年，现在突然告诉你玛丽才是官配，嘻嘻
6.5分。原谅我，只看到了一个中年人热血退散，却不得不勉力为之的疲惫不堪。庵野秀明成长了，或者说他变了，他或许不再对曾经那些得不到回答的质问耿耿于怀，但《EVA》却不能变，它必须是热血、孤独、声嘶力竭的，这两种力量拉扯出片中那爆炸式的情节信息量，那成堆的导演根本懒得解释的高概念。这是一个只属于少年人的故事，26年前庵野秀明开启了它，26年后庵野秀明已经无法结束它。
看到中途，我就有点不忍心往后看了。但是结尾，收得真是漂亮啊。
4:02看完哭成傻逼。以前看EVA因为豪猪理论，因为每个人悲哀的不完整，因为孤独，因为靠近互相伤害，因为爱会产生痛苦，因为懦弱而不敢产生羁绊。没想到EVA会以如此方式结束，结束于新世纪，一个爱而没有伤害的世界。如果老剧场版的补完是接受了痛苦，这次的补完是真正长大了。原来长大是如此温暖。有一天我也会长大。
我不想说痞子已经江郎才尽，不过我还是希望能在《真心为你》，甚至是《破》里就画下句点。
泪流满面，百感交集，每个人都有着最好的归宿……再见了，所有的福音战士……
2、明日香一個普通人為什麼有克隆人？克隆來幹嘛？明日香是eoe中個人意識最強的人，到最後都拒絕補完，為什麼要設定為克隆人？
不到最后一秒永远不会猜到还会被喂什么屎，是我输了，可到底谁赢了呢。綾波：这是什么？痞子：是让你们别再惦记eva的魔法。别赶我走啊我还想看〇〇〇（cv内〇〇輝）xシンジ的本子
想看：2012-01-02。 やっと終わったな。再给庵野至少半年，他应该能做得更完整……所有的角色都happy ending，至少在他们的人生中
痞子尽可以这样拍，但我不接受结局。没人配得上明日香
电影的最后，长大的真嗣在车站等人还带着DSS项圈，虽然长大了，但一切都定格在了决战的时候，这一切只是想像的世界，凌波丽死了，明日香也变成使徒和EVA一起死了，最后真希波在海边找到了真嗣，说明真希波也死了（真希波对真嗣说过的到哪里都会找到你这句话真的是讽刺），几乎所有人为了阻止第四次冲击全部牺牲，只有村子结界中的人还有从飞船逃生的人活了下来，飞船保留下来的DNA会让这个世界继续，不过新世界再也不会有为之奋斗的主角们了。因为主角们就是我们，主角们成长了，我们也长大了，在现实世界里继续奋斗吧。
开头看到的结尾的故事，只是没想到会构建这么童话般的结局。如同豆瓣友邻之间的恋爱，把情人所有的细节都赋予这对最幸运的爱侣，然后再将他们拉到生活中来。
“比起一个人的寂寞，两个人的寂寞更让人难受”。文青情侣的五年之痒，逐渐被生活磨平棱角的恋人们在爱的道路上如何走散。坂元的情感金句、男女双视角心路历程、包括恋爱中那些细水长流的日常点滴都刻画地深沉且隽永，看到结尾会觉得有种深深地无力感。相爱容易相处太难，挥手不仅是向过去的回忆作别，也是向曾经的自己。感谢这份爱恋让彼此成为更独立的个体。
而在与碇真嗣的接触中，包括赫赫有名的月下绫波丽，都体现出了一种倾向。
日本人为什么这么擅长伤害观众，火影，死神，夜叉姬，少年永远是少年不好吗，你们嫉妒自己的主人公是吗？
日式的哈利遇到莎莉，分手也会纠缠不休，就是不愿太早接受现实而已
真嗣一一向大家告别成长为大人了。
这部电影看得我好难过啊…好久没有这么难过了。不是看着看着就埋进被子里嚎啕的那种难过，是凌晨四点一言不发直到片尾曲播放完毕，在闷闷的雷声中下公寓楼、点一支烟慢慢蹲下来不知不觉就泪眼朦胧的那种难过。花束般的恋爱，爱摄影的朋友去世了，一起吃过的世界上最好吃的面包店倒闭了，《宝石之国》的情节记不清了，塞尔达没再一起玩过，电影院里终究还是睡着了。你我心意相通到不用开口告白，便如已经在一起好多年的恋人；不用开口说分手，就可以做到释怀如相熟的老友。爱的开始如此默契，不爱也如无风之水不起波澜，就那样互相了结掉吧。再合适的人他们的恋爱party也会有结束的一天，到头来还是庄子那句“日方中方睨，物方生方死”罢了。自始至终，没有谁做错了，但是我们结束了。to my dear xw
