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".

连六分都没有？不知道怎么想的！
有东邪西毒和倭寇的踪迹的影子
西部荒漠场景 剑客 很有侠客味道
配乐好，剧情好，演的也不错，可惜现在是小鲜肉和无脑特效的年代，要不然为什么如此空洞无物的沙丘会比复仇分高这么多。就像冯导说的，垃圾电影就是因为垃圾观众太多。这是垃圾的时代！
NO.2244：1h27m腾讯视频，剧情比较一般，而且剧情的节奏太慢，但是打戏挺不错的。
早年练刀的时候，总问前辈，下一招出什么；前辈说，不用去想下一招，一切都是时机的选择。有一点倭寇踪迹的徐皓峰，又有一点东邪西毒的王家卫。
也算网大中的清流了，剧情简陋但这武指有两把刷子。
比想象中的网大要好。看得出来导演很想跟绣春刀类型上靠，但是编导水平还有待提高。起承转合过快。演技比较稚嫩。武打动作还算过得去，刀刀溅血、打戏无慢动作这些特点值得重点表扬，但是毕竟成本也看得出来有限，故事整体格局也较小。期望导演的下一步作品能更上一层楼！
如果把它當作港片來看，其實應該在配樂和服裝上、給兩顆星，但糟糕之處，就在除此之外，無可誇讚。

打斗用心，好过很多武侠剧了。演技，台词过于单薄，还是需要好好打磨！
还原了老武侠片的味道，西北黄沙破屋子，刀客官府没退路，剧情主题价值观要是有些新说法会更惊艳，配乐也是简单没有太烘托氛围，但作为网大已经质感很不错了，没有凑大众喜欢的低级元素，也没有加太风格化的叼拐调色，取景不错摄影不错，调性统一结构完整，打斗戏除了群演有点等死嫌疑就起码实打实打了，男一动作戏很帅有点早期宋洋的气质。这几年凑流量瞎堆特效伪装侠情的作品看腻了，喜欢这种实景实打的片子，整体还是值得看看，很开心网大开始走出更多路子，再加油一下都可以媲美更高投资的院线片了。
据说成片历经千辛万苦
故事简陋，大漠黄沙的意象又略显刻意。但总体瑕不掩瑜。武侠日渐式微。且看且珍惜吧
TMD，又捅这里……（毙）这个的确是精华了，差点就给打7分了。这片子摄影画面都很不错的，可惜了导演不太行，剧情简单拍得更简单，演员演技台词也大多是拉胯。
场景加分，人物动作都加分，编剧太弱了。交待的太细，情感拉的太长，看着看着就想快进，江湖儿女不都是为活而卖命，导演没拍出来。这个女主演的大内密探很好看，比一般的垃圾电影好很多，看的到导演用心了。但是实力差点，花点子太少
这才是真正的武侠电影，没有那么多雷人的5毛特效，没有那么多漏洞百出的逻辑错误，有的是诚意，有的是初衷！
动作戏有模有样，不是那种假把式，画面黄色调为主，有种90年代电影双旗镇刀客的感觉，故事不是很复杂，还是陷害和复仇，快意恩仇的故事。
看着有王家卫的味道，让我想起了《东邪西毒》。没有花里胡哨的杂耍动作，只有刀刀致命的简单粗暴，虽然剧情还是能看到开头就大概猜到结尾，围绕的冲突还是推出江湖，但对于一个网大，以及这帮新生演员和导演来说，着实是不易的。
