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".
看这个想到了可爱的骨头，那部剧真是挠心的难受。这部剧在灵能的加持下有了一个HE，最后凶手被杀的时候还是挺爽的
四星支持我阿。借用赵老师的话：“我阿已经不是当年那个我阿了 但是 我永远爱我阿”举重若轻地将宏大的历史与情节剧并置，尽管略有诡异，但是潘潘的表演还是带着着喷薄的能量。
不太行，drama部分和拔高部分有点割裂，结尾显得有点莫名其妙。但是女主真的好看，配色真的好看。
人类的历史都拒绝保持沉默
两段故事。一个关于生命的未来，两个母亲两个孩子，被抱错之后产生的羁绊；一个关于生命的过去，被遗忘的乱葬坑里埋着逝去的祖辈。死亡与新生，历史与现在，阿莫多瓦举重若轻，没有过度诠释，轻盈的色彩更显美丽。
我只一味地向前走
佩内洛普讲历史那段很抓人啊,挺感动，以及另一位母亲《长夜漫漫路迢迢》的演绎很赞啊！
百合那一刻的走向就很阿莫多瓦，但关于祖父的部分没有融合进去，如果纯粹一些只讲两位母亲可能更极致
单独看的话，错抱婴儿和内战创伤这两段戏都不算特别出彩，而且两者之间的嫁接也比较生硬和勉强。总之，Almodóvar的个人风格几乎无法辨识，看来这确实不是他擅长的题材啊。
历史不会沉默，永远不会。两位母亲依靠棉签，依靠孩子连结在一起，追溯，回忆，她们之前的爱和情，她们拥抱在一起，母亲是什么？后代是什么？伟大，热爱，赞美，这部也许不是最好的阿莫多瓦，但一定是及格的阿莫多瓦。
用奇情写历史，这种呼应妙极了，独裁者就是那双调换人物命运的看不见的手。
这部还是典型的阿莫多瓦，但是加入了关于历史回忆的主题，还是不错的。
年度十佳！三位母亲、三个女儿、三次反讽复归，一段历史追寻、一次记忆挖掘，一场回望之爱......从迪奥提玛孕育的爱之教诲，到深重往事的再次回溯，皆是对不朽的渴望和对死亡的超越，这就是阿莫多瓦的《会饮》，多年如一日的奇情作者特性的达成。
个人与国家，新生儿与妈妈，平行映照，阿莫多瓦是个缝合怪。性取向的反复流动缺乏一些说服力。
抱错孩子这个故事，想讲出新意太难了，但想要更狗血阿莫多瓦还是做到了，可惜没能在两个母亲的关系上持续挖掘，反而想要用民族伤痛来为影片加持，最终有点不伦不类。
铺线特别明显所以感觉很硬，这个亡灵电话的设定也非常的……硬。就仿佛进到了一个低价密室，不断有NPC给你提供线索，让你去结束这场游戏。除了全片色调看着还挺舒服，其他都感受不到什么诚意。前面预铺了这么多的老爹严重家暴到最后连个屁都没放，人物性格转变也很奇怪。两警察也太相信玄学了…… 耸肩
命运抽你脸时，你得用力抽回去，文艺作品都这样，现实是，躺平吧。伊桑霍克好肥
3.5⭐
挺一般的 暗线加分但有些割裂 抱错孩子故事线的节奏甚至还不如1818黄金眼
说明如果一个小男孩被绑架，如果没有能与鬼魂沟通的能力以及一个通灵的妹妹的话，必死无疑。
