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".
前三分之二balabala，最后把我震醒了。想要转发热评第二奥兰少的影评，说得真好，“我不同意”之后拉起她的手，在电梯里拥吻，就是这一修辞手法的最好的完成。
“你利用这一点，你可以得到所有想要的东西，你可以移山倒海”
如果我到了56岁，能这么年轻独立优雅迷人，吸引相差20岁且有所思想的姑娘，并能在激情中保持冷静，那此生可就功德圆满了。
Be in the present, thus to be carefree and soul free. 阿娜伊斯彻底活在当下，享受并索取，自由并挥霍，她不顾一切、争分夺秒，完全拥有自己的身体和心灵，如tractor一样裹挟成长道路上的一切。如智慧却脆弱的瓦莱丽所说，阿娜伊斯活在时间之外，而生活即地狱，世俗者不得不和时间讨价还价，无法自拔地被吸引，又不能免俗地离开。结尾分手戏宛如对叔本华的扬弃，有种怜我世人、忧患实多的伤感与慨叹。
Gosh，全程嘴角上扬疯狂心动，"我不同意"，什么tmd叫浪漫，这tmd才叫浪漫！
Écris-moi encore！
最后一幕，作家的一番话把我都说服了。但是阿娜伊斯没有，“我不同意”。（在电梯里接吻能克服幽闭恐惧症
确实还是法国人最会把情欲与诗意结合在一起。
7分。不会就是女主阿娜伊斯的爱情故事吧？这么巧同名么？法国人的浪漫，阿娜伊斯的热烈情感，不要在意道德约束。不管是之前的感情还是现在的，阿娜伊斯都是主导者。只要阿娜伊斯喜欢，睡完老公，再睡老婆又怎样？就是洒脱，就是随心所欲。阿娜伊斯真的太有诱惑力了，最后女作家大道理说了一堆，表达了坚决不能继续的决心，可是根本抵不过阿娜伊斯的一个吻，立马就溃败了。不过，浑身沙子的沙滩情欲戏并没有很舒适的感觉。
阿娜伊斯的横冲直撞与追逐直觉想把燃烧在旷野的火，挥洒出肆意和放纵的红色，和最糟糕的女孩一样，支撑起了年度几乎是最复杂而有真实的女性形象。valeria对她说只要你想要什么你就会想尽一切办法去得到甚至有移山填海的力量也就完全可以信服，因为这个人物有足够的魅力让她为之折倒，最后一幕回想起卡罗尔，我要屈服我的感觉走，这是奋不顾身的同义词。
人物塑造上有点拧巴，不必要的情况比较多，整体比较局促。谁不想和姐姐谈恋爱。
所以阿娜伊斯会对艾米丽这个唯一能让她真正共鸣的人敞开胸怀是有迹可循的，从她们的初次交会开始便注定了爱情的产生。而丹尼尔的戏份虽略显抓马，但却在最后讲由现实走向浪漫的故事再度拉回现实，形成了爱意的咏叹，也完成了阿娜伊斯的成长。
Be in the present, thus to be carefree and soul free. 阿娜伊斯彻底活在当下，享受并索取，自由并挥霍，她不顾一切、争分夺秒，完全拥有自己的身体和心灵，如tractor一样裹挟成长道路上的一切。如智慧却脆弱的瓦莱丽所说，阿娜伊斯活在时间之外，而生活即地狱，世俗者不得不和时间讨价还价，无法自拔地被吸引，又不能免俗地离开。结尾分手戏宛如对叔本华的扬弃，有种怜我世人、忧患实多的伤感与慨叹。
比糟糕的人明媚太多，花花绿绿的裙子、风风火火地奔跑，还有夏日恋情，都是喜欢的元素，剧情本身似乎很法国，混乱的人物关系，自由的人生，很羡慕的一点是经常能看见的书籍元素，总觉得很亲切。
出乎意料的好看。太喜欢最后安娜伊斯说“我不同意”了。还有艾米丽说“我就在这儿，如果你想要我的话，我就在这儿。”
女主真的是理想的样子。
大胆与羞涩的结合 女主总是跑跑跑 好喜欢沙滩做爱吸 黏糊糊的情欲 。
小狗的爱就是最好的爱，谁能拒绝疯狂直球热烈但又不乏腼腆内敛克制的年下呢。
La vie est une vallée de larmes.
阿娜伊斯是夏日，用奔跑来缓解不安，用情欲稀释虚无。“你爱的只是illusion”
