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".
跟爸妈看。以前的电影节奏和现在确实不一样，前面有点拖沓，结局又一死了之，照现在估计还会表现一下妻儿境遇，坟前祭祀之类的。看的时候忍不住想起《潜伏》，不过后来居上总是会更合理一些，本片的地下桥段还是太简单太主题先行了，人物关系发展也粗糙，比如两人的爱情发展到生孩子。反派极其无脑脸谱化，说一口中式日语，比《平原游击队》做的差太多。目前7.8的评分是合理的。PS：孙道临这里跟《麻雀》里完全不同，真是好演员，就是秃的有点突然^_^查了下李白烈士的生平，感觉比电影更加传奇和感人，比如改装收音机逃过日本专家检查，被捕后的遭遇等。天要亮了，但英雄却倒在了上海解放20天前，谢谢一代传薪者。
看了故事里的中国过来的，正如胡歌所说，烈士的一生就像一根火柴，一直潜伏在黑暗里，但恰恰是这根火柴，点亮了新中国的光明！向所有为国牺牲的先烈致敬！
人性的罪恶已汹涌滔天，正义的微光正艰难缝补。在哥谭近似永恒的黑暗前夜，一个悲剧的命运被时代所裹挟冲撞，却又执念到底、逆流而上，就像视网膜中隐若的一丝明亮，永远那般神秘又引人。
看到那条高赞短评：“2022年了，我们仍在看一部黑暗、压抑、阴冷而又冗长的蝙蝠侠电影。”怎么了吗？2022年了，国际超级怪兽城市上海，也仍在发生一件令人瞠目结舌，让人无语而又无限深思之事。这就是bat man系列的独特意义啊，对于现实世界、典型角色人物娓娓道来的镜像反映。难道只允许存在噱头十足、情节狗血、节奏如打快板的爆米花娱乐电影吗。鉴于最后一段水啸哥谭后的黎明，韦恩那段独白，建议每个经历了今年魔都4月的上海人民都去看一看。【五方脸终于到了散发魅力的年纪，非常适合这一集的忧郁气质。猫女差了一点，个小不够惊艳压台。以及，哪怕是要拍企鹅人系列剧，让柯林这个大帅b戴个完全看不出原形的面皮，还是觉得好浪费啊，可惜程度仅次于汤甜。
真的不喜欢这种暗黑版少年维特的风格嘛
那时候觉得孙先生好帅啊。撇开政治教育因素，这部电影很好看啊，反观现在上映的几部贺岁片，唉，不提也罢。
有缺点也有一些违和的元素，但很好的融合漫画风和史诗感。确实是最符合我想象的一版蝙蝠侠设定，那一身伤痕终于有了“肉体凡胎”的实感，这也是我最喜欢蝙蝠侠的原因😭
同。。。志。。。们。。。永。。。别。。。了。。。
多的一星是情怀！昨晚看了不到一个小时看睡着了，节奏太慢！完全不是诺兰那种天生暗黑，仿佛是故意营造的打死也不开灯，开灯就为被偷窥的感觉。我更想看安迪瑟金斯的金刚、咕噜，而不是管家。帕丁森就是一只吸血蝙蝠，忧郁感伤，没有演出大款超级英雄的味道。很失望。
7 im just too old for superhero movies
#彩色修复版#除了有些地方的嘴唇，还有配角的发际线会有很明显的痕迹，上色做得很不错。片尾的颜色对比，完全像是一部不同的片子。 内容现在看来有点陈旧，谍战的危机感比较弱，部分情节会让人觉得无语。怀疑姚伟一直喜欢李侠，一直相信他，还能根据发报声就能认出他……
阴冷、潮湿、黑暗、诡异，画面与配乐给这部新版蝙蝠侠定下了如上基调，这个重启是最不像超英电影的超英电影，没有超能力，只是有还算敏捷的身手和适当的器具，所以没有很炫的特效，更像是一个推理侦探动作片，这也正是这个新版蝙蝠侠的魅力所在，所以零点首映场依然吸引我认真看完，就怕错过什么关键线索，杜比影院的高亮度很好体现了影片的暗部细节，震撼的音效时不时带来一些惊悚感，期待续作，也希望继续保持这个基调。
第一次在英国电影院看电影着实没经验，开始前放了半个小时广告，加上175分钟的电影，越到尾声越想快点结束赶紧回家。整个剧情节奏扁平，故事主线不复杂加上画面和背景音乐营造的压抑氛围让人有些昏昏欲睡，最后突出的中心思想是英雄的永不懈怠舍己为人和看不到长路尽头的孤独，3.5星吧。
影院终于解封！可惜期待已久的《新蝙蝠侠》有点让我小失望，全片只有三分之二让我满意，开头的蝙蝠侠有如城市里徘徊的怪物一般，让恶徒闻风丧胆，气氛非常好，后续的悬疑性也很足，关于托马斯·韦恩的秘密算是全片的最精彩的爆点，可惜剧情在法尔科内死亡后就开始走下坡路了。谜语人这个反派是完全没立起来，特别是最后二十分钟谜语人那水淹哥谭的计划，有种为了展示反派的危险程度有多大的而写出来的，然后又被主角团解决，真的太随意太俗了
一言难尽，导演对音效和布光的理解真的让人疲惫，没想到是这么oldschool的一部，仨钟看得累死了，就没有哪怕一个有魅力的角色，不知道在看什么，片尾还要让傻子一样的坏蛋联个谊，莫名其妙
真的是郎情妾意啊👩❤️👨五方的下巴太适合演蝙蝠侠了 维恩少爷从头湿到尾
看之前觉得每一个选角都不适合，看后觉得每一个选角都异常适合。非常真实的蝙蝠侠，打架总挨闷棍，飞起来像蜜袋鼯，有无数的内心挣扎… 拿着手电筒照线索的探案现场好像八十年代古早探案剧，高科技的scam隐形眼镜乱入又模糊了故事的年代。btw主题曲好听，小猫的身材真辣！
《潜伏》参考过这个吧？
太中意这种阴暗风格的电影了，罗伯特·帕丁森从今往后值得拥有名字，我再也不叫他嫩牛五方了……DC的超级英雄这么拍就对了
实话实说，冲着“首部黑白转彩色4K修复故事片”的称号去看的，结果修复的效果是真好。故事方面，由于是做地下情报工作的，其实并不枯燥，向在暗处工作的前辈致敬！
