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".
如果你总想去哪里走走，去不知道去哪里，那不妨做个出租车司机吧，让客人决定去哪里，而你只需要朝着目的地前进。可能不够沉下心，知道每个时间的故事推进，但总是迷糊不清晰。对每年那一天，不管晴雨，都坐在和妻子初次相遇的大树下等待的大叔印象深刻。
一段感情不知何时开始，却记得何时结束。从慢慢的喜欢，到果断的决绝。分手后我会回忆我们在一起的日子，但渐渐的我只能想起一些。
日本这类的片子用同样的结构的有点多，比如我们都无法成为达人，比如剧场，同质化太严重，而且这部还没前面那两部拍的好。
论观感上因为男女主角不够漂亮…比花束更日常也更细腻。我会觉得是7分。but 免费看家旁边的场次，挺开心。
永瀨正敏竟然只是在打醬油。
现在越来越喜欢的，都是这种类型的爱情电影了。我是很迟钝，我前半段一直以为是男主角家里的表坏了，日期永远停在一天，快一半了才看明白是怎么一回事。这种把两个人分开，倒着演的，挺有意思的。看到最后，心里还是怪难受的。
最后一幕，一宿没睡，望着窗外升起的朝阳，生活还是要继续呀，分两次看的，前半段很好看，后半段就疲倦了😩。出现的小物件不断的有回应，多了就变味了，追忆往昔相爱岁月，睹物思人本来就随时随地会浮现，好像也没什么可挑剔的。《稍微想起一些》电影名表达的举重若轻，但看后还是留下重重的遗憾！！
“感觉呀想法呀 转换成语言的话，一下就变味了。”所以那些不需要表达的心灵相通，一定很妙吧。
倒叙式的爱情故事，后劲蛮大。没有什么刻意的小清新，但各种情绪都在了。挺好，推荐。前半段可能以为是个什么烧脑的时空悬疑故事——怎么男主不断地在同一天早上醒来，其实不是。剧情后半段开始，越来越舒服。
看到了很多部电影的影子，但暗暗旧旧的画面真得看着让人有些疲劳，前三十分钟有点难看，越往后看越好看。
生活常态，习惯就好，以上。
滑滑梯、拉着手起舞、海洋馆、失败、愤怒、游戏、势均力敌、说不清道不明的互相吸引。前几周oh card抽到的爱原来在说这部电影啊… 那看电影同时在聊天的人会不会就是那个恋人
3.5/倒叙插叙不断回溯，“稍微想起一些”，再想起一些，那些碎片，原来还做过恋人，原来一开始因为舞蹈相遇……出租车司机的身份也和男主床头贾木许的地球之夜相呼应，从开始都是萍水相逢的陌生人，到最后也只不过是回到了陌生人而已。
挺有意思，舒适，恰到好处。
轻喜剧版《少年的你》，轻盈而犀利。且很“新”，有鲜明的时代特征，一部属于当下的、真正拍给Z世代的青春片。剧本非常纯熟，调性由喜转悲，拥有极强的青春能量和隐晦的批判力度。一开始的“错位”技巧用得相当巧妙，从两位少年，逐渐到三个人，四个人……楼下四人对戏，几乎每句话都是笑点，真是厉害。而后，影片借由两位少年的出走，以柔性的方式向学 校和家庭做出了反抗。影片的空间景观序列是很大的亮点，从教室，到舞池，再到电音现场，联同抖音这样小小的所在，都构成了独属于年轻人的世界/阵地。张子枫好灵，她每一次的情动时刻都如此动人。吴磊终于找到了适合他的角色。两人的慰藉之吻太棒了，不是双向的爱情，却又超越了爱情。
7.0 完美阐述了《花束般的恋爱》里的那句“开始是结束的开始”。回忆里的人不会犯错，回忆里的人才会觉得错过
比起花束更喜歡這部，最後街道裡共舞吉他在一旁彈著真的太太美好了。我們曾相愛，想到就心酸。
池松在这部好可爱。烦内，再也不想看爱情电影了。
谁没有点遗憾呢。看他们的故事，就像是帮我们讲出了很多未说出口的话，延续了后来的故事。但故事结尾依旧需要告别的话，那不如早一些，让回忆轻快一些。
疫情下女出租车司机与男舞者的爱情。这一对选的不错。
