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".
林允儿的可爱扮演得更自然充分了，脸瘦的像吃剩的豆包还真贴切；建两元站的理由这段不错，不给大道理而是私心小理，毛病就是设计痕迹太强烈，时时刻刻是编辑的用意感；天才指的确实是野生放养也拿第一的人；这么好的女友是本片感动的点
无功无过，太普通了。女主和刘浩存在小红花中的表现不相上下，这都能提奖？
天才物理少年帮助自己所住的山村里的百姓们建了一座火车站，因为没有火车站他和村民们都付出过惨痛代价。
冲着我们家允儿去看的，结果还不错！姐姐的设定真是超级温暖啊！！！满脸写满恋爱的允允也是萌到不行😍唯一缺点是男主能不能换个脸看起来年轻点的。。。。。
脸盲症表示，林允儿是真的纯美啊。爱了爱了。虽然如此，但下次肯定还是认得，得经过多几部片子的洗礼。也要怪韩国的女生脸太像，她这脸像谁来着？
全村的希望，天才少年坚持为闭塞山村修筑车站，治疗童年内心创伤，与父亲、也与自身和解的故事。
8.0 父子的感情线用力过猛且没讲清楚的感觉，允儿颜值绝了
朴政民这两年的戏拍的不错呢…韩国人很会玩这种小东西，重笔涂亲情，浅笔再捎带一点甜甜的爱情，落俗套但是抓人心啊，挺不错的，观感温暖，不免动情
和李星民父子感好强；明明俩人都三十多了氛围也好初恋；太喜欢朴正民了太喜欢了
8.0 父子的感情线用力过猛且没讲清楚的感觉，允儿颜值绝了
朴正民和我允的爱情线足够自然也足够好看，互动啊一些搞笑的点都非常好，我允完全看不出是爱豆啊，就是被林允儿倒追这个事情是真实存在的吗。没想到最大的反转是姐姐早就不在了。父亲的形象让我想到了铁道员，一样也是因为恪尽职守最后在一生中留下了遗憾。和解也就是常规的套路了。8/10
充满期待打开，结果却失望而归。 感觉导演想讲的东西太多了，导致电影有点四不像，完成度当然也就有点低了。 而且笑点泪点的设置也比较普通。从人物完成程度来看，朴正民虽然是第一次担当主角，但总算是不辜负期望，继续好好用心的话感觉以后的电影路会越走越宽的，反之女主林允儿的戏就程式化多了，表演痕迹无敌重，还不如姐姐这个角色演得自然流畅。另外从未生这部剧开始就喜欢的李圣旻也是一如既往，有他的镜头都看得很舒心。
剧情有点拖沓，压缩在一个半小时差不多。一直觉得韩国拍温情片有一手，但是看完这部总感觉差点儿意思。也能看出导演的良苦用心，导致可能内容桥段塞的满满的而看得有点饱了…
为什么要在这样一个题材里面混杂爱情题材，或者说在爱情题材里面混杂这样一个题材，摄影拍得什么鬼，胡乱炫技却没有任何表达
两难的抉择
摄影也很垃圾，大量曝光过度，简直是灾难。
前3/4还不错，场面和小情节的设计蛮好看，笑点很密集。可惜故事线和感情线两不相干，割裂感严重，完全可以剪成两部电影。父子俩最后的和解和交流也落入煽情的漩涡，整整11分钟的煽情戏啊，扣半星。感觉创作者想要好多东西，爱情讲一段梦想讲一段亲情讲一段，不会取舍；也因为姐姐的梗冲击力太强，后面很难再推上去了。演员方面，最大亮点是允儿，这种活泼、机灵、搞怪的角色因为和她本人性格接近，非常讨喜。
短短两个小时不到的时间里揉杂了爱情，姐弟情和父子情三段感情线，其中还有男主的梦想线，村里的车站建设线，太多了，适当删掉一点会好很多。
借真实事件的壳编了一个乡村少年被治愈的故事。故事结构很完整，天才少年因家乡没有火车站而意外失去姐姐，长大后想尽办法引起官方注意为家乡修火车站，最后火车站建成，修复父子关系，姐姐去世的阴影也被治愈。被想象出来的姐姐一直以高中生的样子伴其左右，直到男主治愈才和姐姐告别的设计其实不是很新鲜。而且三十岁的朴正民真的不适合再扮演初中生了，演技再好也让人出戏。李星民大叔的表演依然没话说
很久没看到过这么糟糕的电影了。这不是一部电影，而是一部10-20集韩剧的提纲。神乎其神的剪辑，感觉人物一直在飞来飞去，我们只能看到结果，不清楚过程是如何，只能说创作者想表达一个你不用知道这个是怎样产生的、怎样出现的，它就是如此，纯“天然的”。庞大的叙事线，让人琢磨不透的情节，靠丰富 到位的配角演技与精致画面去堆砌质量。当你看清这一切之后只会觉得空洞 拙劣，单拎出来几个段落，不看其他可能算还可以，但放在整部电影中后，让人无法产生共情感。姐弟亲 父子亲 爱情 梦想成堆的表达主题，但最后仅仅是点到为止而已，再者有可能在观察不细微的观众眼中甚至连留个印象的可能也没有。可能是心有余而力不足又或者是人心不足以吞象。
