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".
千万别信骗子！千万别信骗子！千万别信骗子！
扛过前面一小时的铺垫，后半部简直WTF！！！不过最后女主的反转画蛇添足了。
有几个地方还可以、但大部分地方都很垃圾、警局的人真的是智商堪忧.尤其是最后死在卫生间的那两位.笑死我了
仅有的可以称道的地方是搞对了许多历史的犄角旮旯的细节，譬如怎么杀也杀不死的拉斯普京，访问萨拉热窝时一路惊心无大碍最后却被怪异绝杀的裴迪南大公夫妇等等；然而放大到整体就是一滩完全不知所云的黏稠混合物。另：商业大片里那种CG长镜头真是快看吐我了。
平安夜的電影，不得不說我就是很吃馬修沃恩的這一套，觀感略遜第一部王牌特工：特工学院 （畢竟第一部神作），比第二部王牌特工2：黄金圈好。延續了系列有力而清晰的打鬥設計，機車鬼扯的運鏡，還有流暢的剪輯，還有死重要角色的光輝傳統。配樂比較文藝和憂傷，貢獻了一些新的金句，印象最深的是：“榮譽不是為國捐軀，而是讓敵人為他們的國家捐軀。”王牌特工宇宙初步成形（現在啥宇宙都是能搞的起來的，除了DCEU！），影片結尾有彩蛋，下一部應該是講二戰。
虽然以黑人女警为主角，但丝毫没有PCness之感。就是一部爽片。
很不错的故事啊，气球杀手是亮点，而杰拉德最后的出场一点也不意外。
治疗腿伤那段真的性暗示过于明显…我不太舒适。把列宁塑造成地下反派，英国人你们怎么回事哈哈哈，还伙同青年希特勒。开头刚想感慨好不容易主流片找了个这么赏心悦目的男主结果居然死了？？死了？？？
芭蕾元素的动作戏很有趣，战场的不敢出声的殴打很有紧张感，能知道kingsman的传统的起源身为粉丝很高兴
现在的米国片是不是必须得有各种肤色的人搁一块拍才能ZZ正确？
我喜欢王牌特工第一部，那么这一部和原来的电影相关的真的非常少，除了小男主突然死掉和降落伞位置落得不对。其他的部分都不太喜欢，节奏很散漫，逻辑也不太能接受，小男主妈妈如果不乱跑根本不会被射中，小男主都参加过刺杀行动居然还对上前线那么痴迷，非常中二，过于中二。还有牧羊人幕后下棋，引导全世界战争格局，这种历史调侃我不太喜欢。
唯一比较感动的点是，父亲继承了儿子的遗志，对传统叙事进行了颠倒。Conrad死得不明不白，扛着战友跑过枪林弹雨太有主角光环，莫名其妙被打死又太不可理喻。一战相关的叙事完全没get到，一些打戏浑浑噩噩地过去了。
杀手三还不够疯狂
2022.03.05
WTF？！Matthew Vaughn是真够腐的，在下呸服！！
小镇的警察局是不是太悠闲了，看见实体和满地的弹壳都不最高戒备。行吧，就是个爽片，无脑看个乐呵。
“Never more than a day ahead of the devil, Or maybe I'm your devil now, And this is our day, You can't run from this, Hell's already here.”
国内是上不了的，历史总是胜利者编写的，希望我们以后别输了
三人在地下牢房博弈的那一段很精彩，整体匠气有点重。另外谁打工都是混碗饭吃，太过敬业真的没有必要啊…
所以這個片子就是，無用警察 vs 好奇心超重的女警 vs 話癆長髮奸商 vs 哲學有義氣殺手？？ Ps. 好愛神經病喵喵羊殺手哈哈！
