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".
1、一篇最末长风和“爸爸”的拥抱。2、鸭先知
吴京、徐峥、开心麻花的作品都是固定模式
我觉得都挺好的，分感觉有点低了。
按时间顺序的编排，抗日战争→航天发展→改革开放→现代科技。第一第二个看得好煎熬，吴京的最差，好久没有看过这么假的战争片了。徐峥的最好，查了一下中国第一支广告还真就是参桂养荣酒。沈腾的有几个段子挺好笑，但是整体来看多少有点偏题了。
看特利迦时日常反思是不是已经过了看特摄的年纪，但看隔壁棚当下的作品时还是饶有兴味，这或许不是我的问题
一起性侵案的双视角，一场有罪与否的法庭辩论与道德审判。
3.5。人设背后。女性的权利仍然不停的讨论。影片的镜头后期有点随意了
绝对的五星，主线副线叙述都满分，人物刻画有血有肉，深度艺术性两手抓，剪辑音乐台词都精彩。看似罗生门，但其实从动机入手就能很清晰地判断谁是谁非。男主的动机从来都是游戏。Even if the girl did give consent, but a consent based on a lie is not a valid consent!!! 我虽不是父权社会的直接受害者，但它无孔不入地渗透在生活的方方面面，谁也逃不掉。
四个小故事，像命题作文，吴京和章子怡的题材大，却把控不住情感表达，很牵强。
邪恶特利迦复刻一波邪恶迪迦，遥辉被赛雷布洛附身后还是有些惊悚的，本以为最后永恒核心的力量全给特利迦后会解锁新形态呢，没想到还是闪耀特利迦。不过打斗场面相较于武居导演之前的作品有了明显的进步，文戏也是相当的不错，比TV不知好了几倍，如果TV照这个水准，起码不会被骂这么惨。剑悟和彰人果然是真爱啊，有点期待武居导演的《德凯奥特曼》了。
在一夜情和强奸之间竟还有一条漫长的容易模糊视野的灰色地带，哇！多么大胆的粉饰！完全的盛气凌人的姿态，多多少少还带着一点身不由己的狂傲以及来自意识形态里的轻蔑。
这话痨片绝对值得二刷。五味杂陈。法庭群戏特别好。«Ici, il n’y a pas qu’une vérité mais deux perceptions d’une même scène.»这种辩护简直让我冷汗直下。Farel这家子真是典型。小夏母子再次共演Yvan爸爸导演的片子，飙起戏来相当过瘾。这种题材很难不偏不倚，本片倒是始终如一地保持了客观。
只能说干啥都不能对比，其实整体看下来，就是普通一集的加长版，并没有那么好，就是正常水平。但是由于tv版质量过于参差不齐，以至于这种正常水平都已经是十分罕见的了，如果当初tv每集都可以是这水平多好，随时不是神作，但总归可以平稳着落啊
双方的结案陈词阶段很精彩，值得思考和研讨。
观感比TV版简直不要好太多，姐夫全场最佳！
不同视角的切换和不同立场下的选择以及看似模糊的真相，这些都实实在在地构成了les choses humaines
“沉默不是同意，是痛苦。” 没有说no就是yes吗？她敢拒绝吗？被里面自大又蔑视的男性视角气到怀疑人生，还有那句“女孩子应该知道这意味着什么”。男权下的威胁和自以为是，全世界都一样。男性永远不能理解女性每天面临着什么。法律面前的无辜和道德面前的无辜，从来都不是一回事，但就能忽略道德吗？
造一个孩子们的乐园，科技点亮梦想。有些黑色幽默，鸭先知很可爱。
UGC Les Halls 庭审上证人女孩的发言或许最能说明这个案件的痛点，许多性侵犯因频繁发生而被所有人视为“正常”。当有女性感觉这“不正常”时已难以论证。女律师最后的论证铿锵有力，多少隐性的威胁在逼迫女性就范。
庭审戏太精彩了，台词量大的戏一般不爱看，但这部精彩到想要二刷。真相是绝对的吗？真相难道只在每个人心里吗？
