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".
3.5星 | 工整且无趣，剧只看了前三季，因此很多人物都已经不熟悉了，幸而英音还是很好听的。w/ Cloudy.
希望美好的事物永不终结，但是世界上毕竟不会有这种事，我们只能享受乐在其中的一段时间，这就是生活。
毒舌老太太走好，想念你
永远都会为唐家屯的温馨落泪，玛丽配音时、莫斯利求婚时、奶奶离开时……看着他们一步步地跟着时代变迁和进步，却又有着始终坚守的品质。 应该是全系列最终曲了吧:-(
情节生硬，没什么说服力，完全是在为情怀买单。
内容上，老爷发现自己有可能是私生子的时候第一反应是自己是个混血私生子有没有继承权？后面还硬圆回来说我很高兴我是我爸的儿子，真下头啊...夫人对老爷的爱还是真是感人啊，I have money and you're in need of it...还有还有托马斯的情节又删了是吗？我不理解...还有玛丽老公演员是没档期吗，怎么两部都不好好参演，给我一种丧偶式婚姻的感觉，我当时就想不如跟这电影导演两个过浪漫生活了，让我很不爽。
跟着唐顿一路走来，我老了他们也老了。有笑有泪的看完，最喜欢的老太太下线了，我喜欢他们体面面对死亡又欢乐迎接新生的态度。长辈的八卦真有趣，谁不是英式快乐法式快乐各种快乐都有点儿才最快乐呢！老爷的担忧让我想起了我爱我家的贾志新哈哈，谁能想到大小姐成为了一位配音演员呢。期待故事继续讲下去！
很久没有这样独自一个人坐在电影院里让情绪自然而然地默默宣泄，再也不用担心唐顿会出现意料之外的变数，一切都是那样合情合理地发展着，连最终的永别都是如此体面安详。
庄园的人一开始厌恶在庄园里拍戏，
"We're orphans at last."
喜欢这种调调的电影，这就是平和中带着意思幽默，平和的度过每一天，很喜欢marry这个角色，承接了过去和将来。
一如既往的大团圆结局，我的Matthew Goode虽然不在，但barrow 找到幸福啦阿哈哈哈～～ 看到最后会想到四个婚礼一个葬礼吧，英国人好像很喜欢在这种仪式感中讲述世事变迁云卷云舒. 当年追唐家屯的那拨人也长大了，成了货真价实的中年人. 小时候肯定都是想成为玛丽大小姐啦～ 但现在发现其实自己最像二小姐，从壁花到拥有自己的幸福人生，希望以后的路也和她一样. Life goes on, people come and go, 但是唐顿庄园的烟火味一如既往地抚平人心. 最后给管家和mosby那两段舞台剧般的精彩独白点赞👍！
婚礼之后是葬礼，死亡之后是新生
比上一部好看多了，但是编剧你好狠的心，怎么舍得让老夫人领便当TAT
有泪有欢笑的英伦童话。看第一季的时候我博士还没毕业，how time flies!
但渐渐地，才发现他们的人生，都是被一段段爱情所串起来，甚至被拯救。
这次迎接电影剧组，创意是来自《古宅老友记》嘛？电影版一直在配对，连小厨娘、老厨娘、太太的贴身丫鬟，甚至巴罗都配上了，有点替老太太的贴身丫鬟可怜，唯一没成对，主人还去世了。
觉得没有第一部好看，更没有原剧好看，期待大失望也有点大，但总体来说还是很不错了，想给个3.5。
以为会是狗尾续貂，结果又是一场温馨快乐的老友聚会。剧情方面甚至比第一部更好~
淡淡的忧伤。老太太走了，唐顿也算是告别了吧。
