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".
从谍影重重到这部 我只有一个问题想问：如何在逃亡路上随手给自己剪一个帅气的短毛？另外文姐什么时候变打星了？感受到了tiger硬广
女主玛丽·伊丽莎白·温斯特德应该算是一位气质独特的个性女星。不算很美丽，也没有动作女星的标签。甚至长相都很难让人记住，也许就是所谓的大众脸。不过她在本片中塑造的女杀手形象相当成功。而她的师傅伍迪·哈里森，真的挺遗憾的。原本很期待师徒档。本片颇有女版《怒火攻心》或《疾速追杀》的感觉。
女主酷毙了，一路杀杀杀。歌舞伎那边的打斗，场景黑白色主调，非常带感。后面和miyavi在室内打斗的那段也很好看。这种片剧情本身就没什么期待。小女主当中有几段配音没搞好，很出戏，演得也一般。浅野忠信和miyavi在里面都帅爆了。完全当爆米花电影解闷还是可以的
整体观感还是不错的，但是注定是一部看完记不住的片子。作为一部女性动作片，剧本虽然是流水线级别的，但是动作戏不错，节奏紧凑，有日式元素，暴力血浆，大姐姐和小姐姐，色彩和音乐也不错，属于无脑爽片。爽度高开低走，最后一战的动作戏，基本全是枪战，还用上了毫无意义的慢镜头，还没有前几场动作戏强。倒是国村隼的武士刀干脆利落。柠檬炸弹的广告做的不错，一度让我以为对女主有大力水手菠菜的功效。杀手复仇阴谋的段子真的是看够了……三星半
日本元素不错 柠檬炸弹广告成功 整得自己也老想喝
总体4.5分。打头的制片公司八十七北方，厂牌动画是火柴人打斗场面，就是flash时代著名的“小小”系列那种。果然动作设计出色，有“小小”式的巧思，虽不是开山立派、过目不忘的神作水平，也足有4分；镜头也完整，只可惜演员动作不够凌厉；但动作场面秒杀大部分好莱坞片没问题。开头没脱近几年杀手片的俗套。进入正题后全程夜景，画面5分。用光调色滤镜非常用心，高对比度还带点糖果色——杀手和小女孩萌系元素的撞色也正是全片基调，非常成功，给《这个杀手不太冷》式的组合玩出了新花样，5分。可惜情节稍显单薄，交待得也不完美，远没有动作设计和画面用心。结尾硬插的极道家庭价值观反思也不成功，只有老少姐们儿反父权的主题融合得很自然。总之找尽量好的显示器（豆瓣低分百分百是这个原因），一口气看完。喝点小酒更好。网飞电影难得佳品
各方面都可圈可点，尤其打戏。匕首肉搏那段简直满分，上一次在大女主电影里见到那么狠的打斗都是塞隆的极寒之城了。就是霓虹色彩和主题叙事有些剥离，没分析出个所以然来。
日本倒还挺适合拍巷战的，而且霓虹二次元还挺时尚。动作指导不太行，特别到了后半段更加疲软。把一个漂亮的女性弄得脏头脏脑，满身鲜血，并不能提高可看性。
好看，一气呵成，一点不拖泥带水。从科洛佛道10号到冰血暴，一直很喜欢外柔内刚的女主。这次终于主演大女主动作片，不负所望。
部分打戏还不错，女主拿起刀子捅不停，就是摄影和剪辑太无力了，暴力的痛感被乏味的调度减轻不少。台词写得太糟，好几次差点笑出来。两位女演员演得还行，虽然没什么亮点。有点可惜导演功力不足，电影如果整体干净利落一些会好很多。
比较失望的，剧情套路，反转套路，不过打斗戏还行吧，想要离开组织的下场就只有嗝屁，没有退休一说，不过这个辐射中毒就厉害了，女主化身24小时小强强行复仇反杀
日本元素不错 柠檬炸弹广告成功 整得自己也老想喝
也没有啥情节，也不需什么情节，就是看里面的打打杀杀。#20210918
设定很经济，过于经济导致后期拉垮，纸片人是撑不住感情戏的，就不必，一爽到底不好么。哪吒造型好评
某些热评给我看笑了，不卖肉就是合格的女性动作片？我是冲着动作片来的，动作戏拉垮，枪战戏不行，爽在哪里，出点血浆，摆摆造型就是了？剧本更是一无是处，什么时候女拳都能打到这里了，盲目不可取。
小妞电影，全都落在套路之中，比直男爽片还要简单粗暴，东京夜景霓虹闪烁、充斥电子乐和未来感，很适合这种孤胆英雄的绝命题材。
叛逆少女和绝症阿姨。东京贩卖机还卖衣服呢。日本黑道太可怕了。
3-，剧情非常非常老套、动作戏还不错的杀手复仇片
剧情是没啥好看的，但女主角色还是蛮帅的～～
影片其实整体不能到四星，叙事，情节，对白整体是崩塌，无趣而老套的……
