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".
《新世界》是黄政民演丁青，《人质》是丁青演黄政民。剧情犹如清汤寡水，食之无味，感觉黄政民真的是被绑来拍片的
所有人都以为黄政民要演王千源的角色。★★★/6.7
是为了这部电影开的网飞，结果开播了却一直忘记看了hh感觉还是可以看吧，整体剧情和人物情感还是蛮能代入的…只是看完感觉有点难受，差一把劲就能完全戳到点上的那种感觉。而且可能是因为人设还可以？这部里中岛老师的演技就至少没有那么浮夸和尴尬（？）是可以边吃饭边看的片子👌🏻
虽然女主绝症的套路真的很老了 但抵不住情绪的渲染和演技的烘托都非常到位 后半部分没有因为绝症而完全的颓唐 一波又一波的催泪弹让人一回又一回地流泪 说实话是久违的哭嗨了~ 再怎么老套的剧情 能达到感人的效果还是要给好评的~ 人生遗憾太多 那不曾预料的最后一面 着实令人痛彻心扉~ 松本穗香笑起来真的挺好看的 就像电影中说的如满开的樱花🌸 这样美好事物的毁灭也正是悲剧的核心吧~ 片尾的彩蛋很意外 给这份纯美的爱情更添了一份美好🥰
好纯粹的爱情和亲情，没有一点杂质，以及，片子的色彩搭配得真好…🥃
有了重要的人，所拍的照片就有了意义。
剧情够老套的 2022年了还在玩绝症😑 来看中岛老师的没想到还有好久不见的B太 惊喜 Mr.Children片尾曲加分
喜欢片头，很干净。影片给人质量很不稳定的感觉，有时候能好好做出比较新奇的路，有时候又很老套。
恨喜欢日式纯爱片的温暖感，但这部太虐了，难以接受
虽然是很俗的套路但我还是嗷嗷哭，中岛老师挺适合这个角色的啊演得挺好的，发现自己没有发现扶起来的老奶奶是女主的时候大哭那里直接把我整破防了😭
放诸日式纯爱片里只能算比较平的一部，但关于相机的电影总会下载来看
热卖超过 70 万本的爱情小说《我的樱花恋人》终于改编成电影版本！ 摄影学徒晴人与美咲相恋，无奈美咲患上不治之症，衰老速度比一般人快几十倍。这段稍纵即逝的珍贵爱情，就像樱花季节飘落满地的花瓣。美咲莞尔的美丽时刻，晴人一一用相机拍下，即便花落已久，她的笑靥依旧长留心中。
昨天翻译完中岛老师的访谈，想着还是看看这部吧。结果还是想像中的老套，但不妨碍欣赏他的颜ww希望中岛老师可以有越来越多的电影工作，能参加奥斯卡颁奖礼走红毯讲出究極の天国言葉「セクシーサンキュー」
无法点燃我的情绪。中岛健人演技有进步，用力过猛的痕迹淡了，但还是被b太这些配角无情碾压。孩子的主题曲好听
虐死我了……眼睛都肿的睁不开写实验报告了…不过老师的演技真的好了很多（不然我也不会哭成这样www
虽然女主绝症的套路真的很老了 但抵不住情绪的渲染和演技的烘托都非常到位 后半部分没有因为绝症而完全的颓唐 一波又一波的催泪弹让人一回又一回地流泪 说实话是久违的哭嗨了~ 再怎么老套的剧情 能达到感人的效果还是要给好评的~ 人生遗憾太多 那不曾预料的最后一面 着实令人痛彻心扉~ 松本穗香笑起来真的挺好看的 就像电影中说的如满开的樱花🌸 这样美好事物的毁灭也正是悲剧的核心吧~ 片尾的彩蛋很意外 给这份纯美的爱情更添了一份美好🥰
改編的最出色的一點，是黃政民扮演其本人，改編的最糟糕的一點，是綁匪團隊成了單純的惡人，從惡的動機到惡的行為都扁平且表面，在這一點前，大幅刪減智力博弈改以大段動作戲、黃政民化身虎膽英雄的改動，都顯得糟糕得沒那麼糟糕了。這樣的改編不是不可以，只是消解了原作中最有意思的部分之後，沒有更獨特的內容替代，從警匪片變成了動作片，還和絕大多數動作片一樣無趣。
世界上那些最容易的事情中，拖延时间是最不费力的。
待看清单中 存了/ 男女主演技有待提升 故事还是蛮动人的 人生本来就没有这么多圆满 错过便永远 唉……
每当春天来了，美咲会变成满开的樱花，又能见到那个充满梦想，在认真拍照的恋人.....
