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".
OMG…OM EYES… O Fxxk…怪不得改了译名… 真妙！
大家要带着艺术的心态去看这部厌男杰作（男导演拍厌男深入骨髓哈哈哈哈）它几乎将现实生活里女性对男性的厌恶、恐惧、憎恶全部以邪典的形式具象化了。男性至死是少年、男性至死爱当爹、男性天生就抱团。
全片愣是没出现一个鬼，但是却比鬼片恐怖一百倍。因为至少你知道鬼是假的，并不存在，但是男人真的就在你身边。试问谁看了不恐男？加兰是真的稳，借用“千人一面”的意象展现心理惊悚，且每个人物都象征着一层对于女性的加害（裸男-暴露/房东-暴力/孩子-侮辱/牧师-规训/警察-漠视），震撼加倍。摄影音效俱佳，对色彩的使用也尽可能推动了叙事，大片的绿色，新生的绿，诡异的绿；记忆中的囚室，橙黄色；还有别墅墙壁的暗红色，代表危机四伏。蒲公英的种子随风飘散，同男性繁衍后代类比，没有女性，男性的繁衍就成了套娃式的自我复制，只有生没有育，只有劣性叠加，没有良性筛选。总之，千言万语还是汇成那句话：不要靠近男人，会变得不幸。
该爽的地方还是爽了，只是不爽的时间能少点就好了。多一星给高斯林和美女。
masterpiece and major panic attack.
全程看得握紧拳头心理不适，因为里面的男人都那么真实。1️⃣跟你讲一点都不好笑的笑话，察觉不到女性已经尴尬与不自在的房东。2️⃣强迫你陪他“玩游戏”，被拒绝就骂stupid bitch的青年，请注意像所有女人一样，女主即使不适，也是微笑地拒绝，不会轻易释放攻击力。3️⃣随后是一个帮你解决小危险，又提出帮你解决心理问题的道貌岸然的老男人（老男人能赶走青年是因为他比青年在男性阶级里更高），聊两句手就放你大腿上了，还要谴责是你让你老公去自杀，都是女人的错就对了。4️⃣语言暴力威胁加肢体威胁的老公。我死了都是被你逼的，谁让你要离开我。5️⃣跟踪狂，暴露癖男🙂现实中你可能见过其中几个类型的男，也可能全都见过，并且不断地见到。另外一点，女性生产的行为本质也是危险骇人的，为了让女人心甘情愿地生他们不断
自从书写了夏娃偷食禁果之后，女性至今逃不过被男性归罪的轮回。前半段以绿色为主色调，大自然与女主的回音契合得非常有默契，画面充满美感，刚刚逃离男人的女主得以得到片刻的喘息。后半段用了地狱般的红色做了一场大戏，令女人恐惧的五种男人上演连环孕育。这段很解气，男性完全可以靠自己繁衍后代，但是男性繁衍出来的后代，没有一个好东西。这些罪恶的果实，却反过来强有力地对女人进行着精神控制，成功达到了心理恐怖的境界，其中还不乏思考性。虽然故事到最后都不是太能看懂，但可以肯定的是这部片子绝对不差。女性始终被男性凝视，谴责，伤害，女性需要走出这场矛盾的困局，摆脱被历史强行施加的罪名。当然大部分得靠女性自己的力量，因为帮助自己的男性，到最后很可能是伪善者。
女性恐惧集大成的A24邪典大作。这无止境的生育场景，女主是真的麻了。
两大男神同框，美队竟然被压一头哈哈哈，高斯林实在是太帅了，调侃零零七那里我真的笑死了哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈
反正我看出来钱花哪儿了，纯爽片。但私以为还不如看《突袭》。
深深的猩红和浓墨的绿，后半部的效果确实让人三值狂掉难以食用，残肢血浆男体繁殖可能是唯一的亮点，Harper最后面对的依然是自己内心的恐惧，不过是在恐怖片的八股形制里人工受精了一颗厌男的种子。
三星半，没有立项时所想象地那么好，但也充满着独特的语言让人着迷。更本身的定位是部包裹着恐怖元素，也释放着疯狂与宣言的讨论；更大的争论在身体语言剥削与性别意识的掌控，到底该在这个世代做到怎样的“平衡”。但Jessie Buckley和Rory Kinnear所交出的上呈表演，让电影明显有在表演上更值得检视的价值。Jessie驾轻就熟于自己过往的形象——在混沌中陷入痛苦，又在分裂里试着决绝的女子，并从头到尾都散发着自己的能量；Rory跨越于“多重宇宙”，用种创新的方式下完成了数个大大小小的角色演绎。这之外的神祇元素或是背景，考虑到之后的《女人们的谈话》大概有很相近的意识；我保持审慎思考。
6.3/10，芭比男友与美国翘臀不得不说的故事。
hey you know what，15分的泰国朋友玩的是lol，应该是没有take the shot这种操作的
探讨女性在父权社会下的真实境遇、用简笔画勾勒浅薄潦草的toxic masculinity寓言，哪个更安全，哪个更省力？加兰显然明白都是后者。女性的苦难就这样被一种移花接木的方式烹作奇观，雕花摆盘，端上小资观众的餐桌，供人闻着刺鼻的人造香精自我陶醉。它和加兰两部前作一样，都是用大女主假象伪装的厌女电影，本质上甚至是拒绝研究女性的，反而透露出彻头彻尾的男性自恋，真正被符号化的不是“男人”，而是漩涡中心的女性。这样的电影受到追捧，简直是对女性主义的嘲笑。
我没有很在意剧情，我只是享受刺激的枪战以及Ana de Armas的美貌。
布拉格那场戏看得挺爽，高司令怎么演都没有特工感。
其实还不错，罗素很有回到冬兵，美队3那种时候的感觉，虽然有些地方确实有些“圣母”但总体还好啦。美队作为一个反派喜剧效果多过可怕。
把千男一面进行了极富想象力的视觉呈现。它并不会利用惯常的恐怖桥段去渲染气氛，单纯复现女性会遭遇的一切就已经足够恐怖，男性极度自我所带来的压迫恶意也已足够骇人。结尾足够猛。
在网飞这几年砸钱的作品中，这部《灰影人》还比不上前两年迈克尔贝的《鬼影特工》。一样的豪华阵容，一样公费旅游，这部给我折磨多多了。高司令还是完美人设，冷酷杀手兼温情保姆，而美队就单纯是个有小胡子的暴躁老哥，安娜则单纯是个辅助角色还不如花瓶呢，起码有个展示时间。三人没有擦出任何火花，甚至连两大男主都没什么对手戏。打斗枪战追逐戏，没有爆炸贝剪辑得那么碎，但也没好多少，开头酒店的一段灯光烟雾快闪，让我还对罗素兄弟有所期待，但后面就失望了。最关键的是，都有2亿美金的预算了，为什么还安排这么多幕夜戏，混战中一片黑暗，就只听到枪声和东西破碎的声音，差点没忍住快进。
