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".
又一个浓眉大眼叛变革命的故事。男一太一脸正气了。有的电影完全不会触动我，但是我不能确定是电影的问题还是我的问题，是射程不在我的触动区内？这样的电影我没法鉴别中和上，差还是看得出来的。
当众揭露的其实也是教育界的阴暗面吧。要不是数学家的稳定输出还有女生的帮助，男学生就没了啊。当然泄题、无辜的考生是占大多数的，我是这么认为的。看着多少觉得——相当无奈啊。但也没办法，花了那么多大价钱，肯定需要些成果出来啊。最后，还是希望也能遇到这样的数学家/人生导师和知心好朋友叭。
三星半，女生那条线不太懂
南北问题
cliche但是 我还是被结局和erdbeermilch给🚬是不是（）或多或少都对他德存在什么幻想啊…？
前半段挺好，后面上讲台开始有点跳。一个路人可以点醒你的人生，而一个老师可以给你展现地狱。这也是我的亲身经历。必须要说，韩国的青少年演员真的优秀。
工整的电影，数学为载体的温暖故事。教育是灵魂点亮另一个灵魂的事，里面混杂了很多对应试教育的观点，整体很温暖。
巴西警察好爱塑料袋子啊😂电影好残酷啊，马图斯头尾两次坐在车里审视圣保罗，从一开始的开阔大楼到后期高耸的电线，这大牢笼是体制性的腐化，一己之力确实不够
粉红狗狗养成记，教育从娃娃抓起，他会和主人一样会拿起枪，按照主人说的那样去理解自由，糖衣炮弹轰炸你的价值观，以为改变了自己的阶级身份，那口哨只是狗属性舔的臭味本能，狗仗人势，在这样的环境下一样可以展现慈悲，威胁家人永远是他们的手段，铁栅栏划分了是耿直和顺从，这样的世界属于会屈服的这类人，没有结尾，它只会延续下去。
这次啃生肉的感觉还不错。对于数学的坚持，究竟是什么？问题摆在这里，会有不同的回答
《毛骗 第一季》↗《毛骗 第二季》↗《毛骗 终结篇》（个人观感逐步提升）↘《城市的边缘》↘《杀不死》↘《非常保镖》→《冤家宜解不宜结》（个人好感逐渐下降）。附注：你们竟敢在戏里打导演邢冬冬，不怕戏份被剪？好吧，后面被导演给揍了吧？
男主一人靠演技撑起全片着实不容易了
关于一些数学和音乐的台词看的我这个文盲一愣一愣的
成绩与艺术，成绩是反映学习情况的好坏但并不是唯一的标准，艺术有多样性与启蒙性。
要解决问题，先理解问题。电影结尾走向了爽文高潮~
如果不考虑政治因素，这片子前1个小时可以看，后面基本上属于狗尾续貂，愣是要升华主题，但实际矛盾和高潮已经错过，1个小时候就会显得很尴尬。但如果加上政治因素……你就看这个名字，就知道棒子们想干啥了
向上管理很重要，相比之下同僚的利益算个屁……
卢卡真不容易，在巴西居然不贩毒，通过压榨工人勤劳致富～
革命不彻底就是这揍性。
崔岷植演技太好了！！
