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".
印象最深的一幕，狙击五班的战士们齐声高歌时，另一边的美军们起内讧拳打脚踢。两方差距，高下立判。脆弱爱哭是大永的缺点，也是他惹人怜爱的闪光点。饰演大永的陈永胜找到了最适合他的角色，预感会成为下一个“许三多”或者“谷子地”。电影冷峻又温暖地再现了“冷枪冷炮”运动不起眼的一隅，让世人看清了血肉模糊的战争真相。期待春节档票房大爆。
情节设计太过牵强，我军明明知道亮亮是个重要的情报人员，仍然只派一个班的人来救，白白牺牲了五班好几个战士不说，还耽搁了那么多时间，而对比美军反应过来以后，直接派了一个连的重火力来抢人，双方重视程度的差异让人费解。
言语间无不透露他对电影故事性的执着与追求，反复强调好剧本对电影的重要性，这次能看到陈宇老师和张艺谋导演合作，还有我最喜欢的贵州籍演员章宇领衔主演。
狙击手可以的， 确实是以小见大，越发庆幸自己生活在和平繁华的年代；致敬每一位人民子弟兵，谢谢他们的伟大付出，虎年大吉大利！
有时我会觉得，那个时期才是中国最好的年代，
情节设计太过牵强，我军明明知道亮亮是个重要的情报人员，仍然只派一个班的人来救，白白牺牲了五班好几个战士不说，还耽搁了那么多时间，而对比美军反应过来以后，直接派了一个连的重火力来抢人，双方重视程度的差异让人费解。
一件小事拍出这个长度的战争片，老谋子可以的。终于懂小米加步枪胜利的原因，铁的纪律不怕牺牲，装备不行，人手少，咱靠智慧补足。中美狙击手的专业技术上都不差，但就为国家牺牲这一点，我军无敌。2022，开年看《狙击手》，值。
没有宏大的战争叙事，一小段的战斗也挺扣人心弦的，志愿军实在太牛了。
白皑皑的山坡，黑森森的枪口，“2 for2”，对称式的对决，被斥责的“感情脆弱”，悲壮应答声中的眼泪汪汪。当《中国人民志愿军战歌》响起的那一刻，天地为之动容。
因为禁放烟花，所以春节有点安静。但影片里面一声声枪鸣，就是最好的烟花！向我们的前辈致敬！我们现在的美好生活就是他们用生命换来的。不敢忘！不能忘！
这部虽是抗美援朝战争中很小的一场战役，但相对来说拍摄更真实，更细腻，西南官话，包括重庆，乐山方言都能听出，也没有一味地把美军拍的很弱智，真正的斗智斗勇，致敬英雄！他们不过也就是一群最小17岁，最大也才21岁的孩子。推荐老谋子的《狙击手》
麻雀虽小，五脏俱全。老谋子以朝鲜战争中的一次小战斗故事，展现了整个朝鲜战争的惊心动魄与残酷。一次中美狙击手对决的小战斗，却关系到整个战场的战局结果；一个人数不多看似很小的五班，却代表了整个朝鲜战争中所有为了保家卫国不怕牺牲的志愿军战士们。狙击手的专门电影我们中国终于也有了，虽然不是现代战争，却也因为国师的技术、对电影的掌控力，而把整个故事拍的紧张刺激好看。故事的前因后果，敌我双方的实力与差距，场面的调度力，节奏的紧凑，配乐对剧情推进和情节的表现力，几乎每一项都是优秀，略有小瑕疵但不影响整体效果。希望以后会有更优秀的国产狙击手电影出现。
如果美国人认为亮亮只是个担架兵，凭什么认为这一诱饵能诱到对面死伤惨重还不放弃？
太悲壮了！影片结尾听连长说：“五班还在！” 他高呼五班那些已牺牲的战士的名字，身后年轻的士兵一个接一个庄严地、斩钉截铁地、高亢应答“到！”～我眼眶忍不住湿润了。我们风和日丽、鸟语花香的今天就是这些年轻的战士们用血肉用生命换来的呀！！“把青春献给祖国，这盛世迎你回家！”这是片尾的题字，也是我们的心声！不忘英烈！致敬英雄！！
美军的指挥一直在大吼大叫 我们的连长不到最后就是不出来 以为班长是主角 没想到中途换人了 把糖给小孩直接让他跑到我方阵营不就好了吗（bgm重复到要ptsd了）
如果子弹那个特效少一点就好了，我方拿人头每次都出现那个特效有一点点尴尬
真好，当所有都在宏大叙事，唯有老谋子还在一味求小。
看完跟友人说：这电影全程出现女性面孔的时间不超过3分钟。在单挑坦克之前，这电影水准极高，非常过瘾，国师值得信赖！明白最后这一段单挑，是为了体现大永的提升、救赎、完成任务，但总觉得这段还可以再打磨打磨。瑕不掩瑜，值得推荐的一部电影。但这排片真TMD少！
建议所有执着于拍3个小时的导演们都学学怎么在96分钟里讲完这么完整的故事，影片本身水准还是很高的，国师拍出了属于他的冷枪热血。
虽然缺少飞机、大炮，但是我们有众多勇敢、善良、不屈的志愿军战士。无论什么年代，帝国主义终将走向灭亡。看到每一个美国鬼子被爆头的瞬间，我都想拍手叫好。
