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".
想要一个小蓝！头灯太棒了。以前只要忍受个人英雄主义，现在还要加上忍受zz正确，真的是有一点扫兴。
如果龙是善意的呢？如果哥斯拉是守护着呢？如果金刚不是怪兽呢？如果夏日友晴天海怪想和平共处呢？如果体内小熊猫并不邪恶呢？如果海兽没有挑起战争呢？一如既往的[我们所认知的并不正确]动画路子，几分驯龙高手剧情推进加金刚救赎戏，中规中矩。海兽挺可爱的，如果有续集还挺想看海兽打架。
前面都是中规中矩的冒险成长故事，到了后半段就开始变味了……这到底是想讲个啥？可惜了莫比迪克（白鲸记）这么好的故事底子……
小黑拯救小白小黄小红和小蓝 Yaaaahhhhh
结尾有些仓促，羁绊来的突然，但是画面真的好漂亮啊！
画面三分剧情扣一分，天真善良大喊”I have every rights”的少女咱们就是说梦回“环保少女”了，不是说保护动物的主题不行，前期铺垫不少以为有什么大冲突高能剧情呢结果一顿嘴炮输出，突然就民众幡然醒悟敌方落荒而逃了？？？你们西方国家真这么无脑怎么现在又开始讨伐环保少女了捏🤪
人物造型虽然丑，但是红黄蓝怪兽组合倒是分外养眼~
一个永恒的悲剧故事，比Toolstoy的〈战争与和平〉要简单，也比战争与和平的〈histoy〉要复杂。
画面很精致 动作设计也很好
转折太突兀，欺骗整个国家的王室究竟是何目的都不交代，大人都是蠢蛋被一个小女孩牵着鼻子走，海兽的设计也很敷衍，有点潦草，有点丑
常规套路，针灸抓海怪，中医传天下
有很多亮点，令人着迷的海洋BDO做主角，古典文学式的海洋冒险（复仇、父与子等经典设定），用儿童合家欢动画讲反殖民故事，没有爱情戏，很多角色不突出性别或者是抛弃靠性别定位，非常自然地融入了种族多元化元素，海水cg做得非常逼真。也有槽点，海兽的造型和《驯龙高手》太像了，一时间感觉自己跑错片场，尾声收得一般，以及男主人公造型太油腻算吗（🤣
很棒！回忆青春题材，形式比较新颖，显得没有古典的深情，但也是时代的气息吧。柔弱容易受伤的气质啊。音乐也很棒。情感浓度

塑胶海兽还挺好看 做成手办会很好卖 故事整体完成度挺高的 开头的海战还给我感动了一把 燃起来了 除了结尾明显过于理想化之外 其他值得一看
情节一般，制作精良。这故事真的…要是把那个女巫交代清楚，然后多一番怎么证明和解释这些历史书籍的戏码，这基本就上8分了。
想要一个小蓝！头灯太棒了。以前只要忍受个人英雄主义，现在还要加上忍受zz正确，真的是有一点扫兴。
宫泽贤治的银河，《重庆森林》里的加州，有些理想和目的地似乎从未出发。
小女孩抱着书本一开口立马赫敏附体的感觉。
垃圾.除了卖萌就是说教.还有无处不在的政治正确.去你$妈$ber的吧.
