剧情介绍

  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".

    节奏可以更紧凑点,本来就是个为了博眼球的片子。导演看着也不年轻了,不知对老年人和年轻姑娘怎么有这么大仇怨。还不如拍成切几个男人的JJ轮换着装大爷那,多过瘾。

  • 云呈 2小时前 :

    仍旧是公路惊悚片的套路,标配都是一群有男有女的小年轻+农场变态杀人狂,只是把作死玩法改成了拍黄色小电影,贡献了不少裸露镜头。杀手也从高大威猛的形象改成备受衰老煎熬的退伍老夫妻,战斗力主要来自别人的关心,气氛则主要靠白发皱纹与变态性幻想来营造~而他们之所以杀人原因也是很简单的老头不行了老太婆却想要,想来老去的不举比惨遭屠杀更加可怕~渴望年轻肉体的欢愉,算是提供了一个比较猎奇的角度,只是前期节奏太过缓慢,不匹配屠杀气质,好在尺度上有一定把握,女主最后的车轮爆头反杀虽在意料之中,也还是有喷射的快感。所以片名X的意思应该是操!

    三星半,观影体验很好,就打分高一点吧。非常迷影向的恐怖片,虽然有创意不够的嫌疑但是由于表现手法上蛮有质感,也觉得不是粗制滥造的无脑作品。一人分饰两角算是最大的创意,衰老的肉体可能本身就带有恐怖感觉。

    整个过程好痛苦,看七老八十的老人做羞羞的事,太恐怖了!前戏略长,部分高能,其实一群小年轻就这么被两个行动如此之慢的老年人团灭,貌似有点出戏了!

    这是恐怖片嘛?这也算不上血浆片吧。除了玛丽莲唱歌那段好听点,这片讲的是个勾八,关爱老年人X生活?

    诡异感十足,反高潮熟稔,致敬处遍地,交叉蒙太奇过瘾,自嘲解构拉满娱乐性,虽然第三幕破功了,但你还是可以相信A24!

    又是致敬又是解构的,致敬了个寂寞…解构了个啥???不就是操操操杀杀杀嘛

  • 局辰宇 1小时前 :

    故事长度适中,但铺垫约占一个钟,其中靠三两个非常套路的惊悚设计和大量色情桥段钓住观众,令节奏过于依赖后半程。过程中有较亮眼的匹配剪辑和契合复古风格的分屏,也有多次使用了似乎不具备任何连接情节或美学形式的意义的闪频式剪辑,让人联想到《逍遥骑士》里的闪回剪辑,它们纯粹像为身份的自觉上赋予反叛主流的精神。置景方面应有参考皮脸家的风格,那熟悉的腐烂、荒废与肮脏的味道。电影最惊悚的地方不在砍杀,而是赤裸地、病态地展露老年人对性与年轻酮体的欲望,这种欲望本身切中了年轻观众因迟早老化而感到恐惧的真实。

  • 帖辰皓 3小时前 :

    《白发老太太想和你做爱》

  • 卫晴浩 4小时前 :

    性在cult片到底是何种角色?有一些性是吸睛的,而这里性和杀戮却是重叠的,比如一开始A片和危险的同时推进,还有老太太坐在摄像小哥身上,看似是虐杀也同样像高潮,这两个动作指向同一个目的,宣泄。做到统一的除了“高潮”和“杀戮”,还有老太太和女孩的环形,对年轻肉体的渴望以及对衰老的恐惧。

    喜欢女主,竟然是一人分饰两角,有种阴森森的独特美,感觉很适合演魔女嘉莉
