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".
在与女主PK中失败，
2022目前为止看过最好的新电影。很喜欢这类野外求生题材，这次的考验不仅仅是大自然，还有穷凶极恶的人类。全片的mvp该给那条金环蛇，憋了大半时间不开大招，关键时刻给女主神一样的助攻。
初看片名以为是自然灾害之类，原来还有凶杀，不错
另外故事其实也还可以拍得再细腻一点，导演为了画面色彩都忘了去润色故事的连贯性，兄妹两人爱上租客让人感觉就是“见色起意”谈不上深刻、谈不上深情。影片大篇幅聚焦在哥哥身上，却不及最后妹妹逃亡时让人感触，属于是捡了芝麻丢了西瓜。人物形象也太过空白，所有人物的情感都浮于表面，尤其是男主，脸部表情太坚硬以至于看不出任何的情感变化，空洞不代表文艺呀兄弟！
主角光环严重护体 那么陡峭的地方真的可以和大男人搏斗吗
进入正题后的确营造出世界与我为敌的悬疑氛围，不过将近90分钟一直跑，还很巧合顺利的跑，对于一个患有自闭症的软件工程师来说，太能打了，逐渐也变得无新意和乏味了。
极限求生全程看得手心冒汗，但小喽啰无效愚忠加蠢笨，惊险镜头全是近景不舍得特效太掉价了
渣男消失前的剧情有cmbyn的味道，后面开始狗血剧情
渣男让姐弟成长，双性向彼此成就…色调和音乐也蛮好
女主光环强大的过份了吧，哪这么巧上面就有个帐篷，帐篷还是好的，三个反派跟个智障样的，这是在忽悠谁啊醉了
从头到尾都有不合理之处，不修细节的老派逃亡片，可是“老派”同时也很勾人，从配乐出现的时机，摇移镜头巧妙的暗示，到讽刺意味浓厚的文本构成，都让故事更富魅力与余味，削去一些主角光环会更好，至少是能够容忍bug的程度。
想给2.5星。想一想有些过激。网飞，你放弃吧。
女主很漂亮 强行安排的剧情 女主大晚上的也不冷了 一直往右边爬啊 还能包抄 好久没有遇到男主这种纯坏人了
当中国电影还小心翼翼地试探着什么题材能拍，什么题材是禁忌碰不得时，印度电影已经百花齐放了，尤其最近好几部LGBT题材，拍得又自然又商业，票房和口碑双丰收，不要歧视去看看，因为真的还不赖！看介绍是小说改编的，八九不离十是作者的亲身经历了，真想看看原版小说，因为说实话电影其实还差一点点🤏感觉。
不好!闻到了咖喱味的抓马戏剧，怎么说，只能说是印度影视剧带来的即视感，很戏剧啊家人!也不是很难看，就是没有很好看，比不上cmbyn，但又cmbyn的影子（我没有在说明些什么）反正总体就是有些一言难尽啦…
【B-】攀岩题材的女性反杀片和密室类型片，虽然入戏比较慢、结尾比较随意、弱化了攀岩过程，但是好在氛围一直在线，剧情一直有合理的事件来推动。
一根牛子和一個自以爲很OPEN的碧池引發的慘案，沒那意思你打NMLGB的KISS，搞的好像很放得開玩的開，其實這就是一坨屎，多一星給山和風景，這是一坨屎
所幸——表达欲不放飞，创作力紧相随。
还行，那个男的实在太坏太坏了，女主好漂亮，有个心地改可以的男生人挺不错的，但好可怜
有卢卡的制作班底，不管多肤浅的剧本都能拍出些迷人的气氛。从开头男女主角的关系可以看出导演有拍爱情片杰作的巨大潜力。坎妹太美，大卫体力真好。
