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".
感觉跟迪士尼没区别，很适合孩子，2D需要更强的想象力
有股浓浓的日剧味儿，非常喜欢，还是属于那种只看一遍是看不懂的类型，打戏也短小而精悍
答：对不起，需要拆房子，需要承受损失，一切保持原状，高呼几声爱就行了。
惊艳之作。且不谈本身剧本的用心，单是这种日剧一样成熟的拍摄风格都值得一个五星，比当年的rogue外传还要更甚。本作代表着东映没有只一味往子供向方向发展，而是还偶尔记得能为成人观众拍摄作品。虽说看了这么多年骑士，子供向作品也能看得很开心，但能在令和骑士里看到成人向作品真的很感动。美中不足的就是本作故事和主题都和本篇太割裂了，少了几分情怀感。另外，在b站看时弹幕也充满着“看不懂”“怎么皮套这么少啊”之类的发言，更说明本作在小孩子观众和看热闹观众中大概不会受欢迎吧。但即便如此，我也希望东映在以后也能拿出类似风格的骑士作品，在看完其他轻松的皮套秀作品之余能让人偶尔换换口味。
虽然低幼，但是爱与和平、换位思考与沟通，也正是当下需要的吧。。trolls这条线展开得不错，还有好多线可以讲，猜测导演是看过日漫的吧
整体故事叙述感觉还是不错的，但是节奏有些慢热，到了三分之一左右才进入主线，就观感而言感觉不如01的夏季剧场版
作品缺点挺多的，圣刃挺可惜的，01剧场只分到20几分钟，英雄战记分了20几分钟给利维斯，只剩下60几分钟，现在的外传篇章也不能像其他外传一样分章节上映，导致除了主角的篇章，另外两个篇章都讲得比较突兀，太可惜了，希望以后会有导演剪辑版，还是给五星吧，片尾曲太好听了
一分给我的超人，托马老师
Tv让你赚钱赚够了，番外用点心多做做好作品叭！
到不了真四星的水平，十分制的话，7分左右吧。
除了对我不好，其他都挺好的。圣刃有太多的遗憾，因为疫情没有拍成的正统剧场版，却有了作为外传存在的唯一剧场版。。。无奈又有一丝宿命感的味道。。。
就 撞击一炸和最后新家园人间乐园那幕挺好看的。前面的各种议题表达还是老套。
我挺喜欢结局的，二向箔还可以说无能为力，但彗星却因为我们的不团结而让地球重生，挺好的。喜剧性感受的很弱，讽刺虽然刻意不过到也直接。我们如何认知是事实还是队伍，或许越往后这个问题越重要。小李子这个人物的设计是很出彩的，面对困境带来的机遇首先是贪图享受，虽然一直有良知的纠结但知道尊严被人踩碎才选择反击。
很好看 tv的不足，在这里都没有体现出来
作为一部政治片反正是给我笑yue了。故事真是很好啊，在一个很好的前提里探索可能性。
剧情简单但不幼稚，温馨而不狗血。最后人类在知道真相后依然不选择搬迁，人类与巨魔的城墙也依然存在，如果孩子们看完意识到这个事情，我还真不知道怎么解释。能在故事中加入换位思考、与人为善、反战、母爱、奉献等等要素，已是不可多得的子供向动画。
天呐这部让我感觉我像在看牙狼，中间的剧情一度很压抑，我哭的好大声！！
还挺好看的，欧亨利式结尾。剧情有点赶，伦太郎爹的动机有点立不住脚，其他都还可以吧。贤人新形态好看飞了，魅力无边，漂亮月神。八年后托马老师可真帅啊，当爹好加分，狠狠梦了。
挺有趣的动画，内核还挺温暖。简直像是欧美版的进击的巨人啊，
很治愈，很感动（小声bb：那颗咸鸭蛋黄真不错）
