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".
奶飞怎么这么喜欢拍这种爆米花🍿电影，还都是大牌，这就是大数据分析出来大众喜欢的类型吗？Ryan 千年不变的话唠形象不打算改变了吗？欠揍的嘴巴
老套题材，中规中矩。除了特效炫酷，父子情表达得很尬，恋人的初次邂逅也很尬。
这就是一部爽片不爽的代表作，额……也没啥说的了吧。
节奏真慢，最讨厌磨磨唧唧斗嘴半天视觉效果少得可怜的科幻片了。
本片属于是漫威演职人员的私下联谊 因此剧情不重要；剧情是 各种电影桥段的拿来、拼凑、缝合 演员们照本宣科即可；瑞安雷诺兹势必是要在毒舌嘴炮搞笑耍贱卖萌男的路上一条道走到黑了……
科學性應該太艱難的hard background所以用了最顯淺的方法來解釋於是變了想幌子一樣.但可以順利彌補 / 2nd chance get... 還求甚麼.能跟無法再見的人講了應該要講的話,比甚麼科學物理都來得重要
能看，很标准的科幻太空穿越家庭伦理片，但是故事主题还是偏流水线，所以情感构建显得单薄，以后的自己和当时的自己的融合，父子之间的相互推进，然后强行去弥补分崩离析的家庭关系……都有点赶。
本意是科幻包裹下的内核亲情片, 却被拍成了比三流电视剧还要无聊, 冗长且毫无逻辑和危机感的拉家常.
看得又哭又笑，亲情爱情都太好了吧！我不要大脑，我就喜欢爆米花爽片。亚当的嘴贱一看就源自老爸，所以谁也别嫌谁
其实吧……谁也没说过这是严肃电影，主题也就是父子关系，稍微有点薄弱罢了。一个个喊着拉黑小贱贱，智商都看齐韩国新总统了。
虽然剧情、反派、科幻元素都弱了些，但这是部亲情片啊。
#Record#
Walker Scobell是整部電影最大且唯一亮點，可愛、靈動、真摯，剩下的，是老調重彈，是廢話連篇，是乏味冗長。Ryan Reynolds依然在自我重複，然而小賤賤那一套這一次卻異常讓人出戲，那些沒完沒了又不好笑的笑話顯得那麼不合時宜。好萊塢動作片在失去香港武指之後，打戲越來越水了，完全沒法和當初有袁八爺、林迪安時的打戲相比。
科幻设定非常随便一切全靠口胡包括打败反派 时空想穿就穿平行世界也随便穿 不过与其说是科幻不如说是披了科幻外壳的亲情片 里面有几段还是能戳到我 当曾经的人不在了 那么所有有关ta的回忆全都会变成痛苦 所以忘掉或是假装那是不好的回忆就不会再痛了 最后父亲知道自己很快就会不在所以趁还能见面说出了平时大概永远不会说出口的话也是泪目 所以要活在当下 珍惜眼前人 因为谁也不知道明天会发生什么 离别也许就是最后一面 总之不要当是科幻当是个亲情片还算可以一看 能缩短点时长不要那么拖就更好了
這種拍爛的時空旅行和呼喚親情 不要再拍了 好哇
无脑合家欢，有些特效还挺酷的，小朋友有惊喜
这种片子看多了，确实毫无感觉，三星觉得太低了，四星觉得太高了
哈哈，还不错，同样是时间穿越及父子和解，比星爵那个有趣。
这是我第一次对肖恩利维的幻想类作品感到失望。电影节奏是流畅的，前半部分也是感情铺垫和动作场面兼备的，然而一到父亲这个角色出场，电影就迅速往浮皮潦草和语焉不详滑去，反派和个纸片人一样，马克鲁法洛几乎整个第三幕都在神游，最后影片在视觉上和情感上都缺乏高潮，我不确定是否因为瑞恩把这片子当成个人电影以至于挤占了其他角色空间导致后半段崩盘，不过肖恩利维这次显然没有能把一个老套的故事讲出花来。
很喜欢看萌鸡小队，歌唱得好听，又会给小朋友讲道理，还能认识很多新的动植物，这两天带着可乐看了这个动画大电影，她好入迷😂森林里铲车要碰到麦琪的时候，“三剑客”要欺负麦琪的时候，和天天一起划船差点被急流冲走的时候，以及最后被警车追赶，美佳妈妈去救萌鸡们的时候，可乐都好紧张，美佳妈妈救了萌鸡们以后，可乐居然特地扭头看着我说“妈妈，好危险啊”……当然这一幕我也是瞬间泪目😄四星喜欢～
