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".
节奏有点太慢了 伊丽莎居然也到了这年龄了 唉 青春啊
还带换女主角的呢，前边大闺女多好啊，所有桥段都很刻意很匠气，多一星 给配乐
高能就在女主被搬去地下室的那一段开始，而结局的开放式也比较引人遐想 究竟黑化 还是没黑化。
我看过吗 我看过 我没看过 应该看过 哦 看过了
有点恐怖，毕竟我数学不好，而且地狱还是用数学创造出来的新维度，不会解题就出不去呀！结局是有点好玩，可惜前期故事不行，不过也算是走出了恐怖片的新路线了，应证了中学老师的口头禅“学好数理化，走遍天下都不怕”这年头不会点数学都不好意思当魔神了 ，甚至连“薛定谔的猫”都懂，Baphomet要是没事干的话，真心推荐他去当数学家教，最好是教一些很调皮的学生。
制作很精良，剧情推进也比较紧凑，美中不足的是故事的逻辑性，到最后也没有说清楚为什么是这样的结局，可能是我的数学没学好，不知道薛定谔的猫到底死没死吧……
前期一路惊悚悬疑吊胃口，来最后30分进入高潮，抄袭咱东土大唐的黄泉之路，这货那倒是西化的马面？
恐惧源于内心，既能控制人心，也能重获新生。
氛围不错，就是结尾手电筒敲别个手那里有点幽默
剧情★★★恐怖★★
先吐槽一下片名翻译，翻的什么鬼东西。。。通篇个人觉得很不错，非常完整，氛围营造不夸张还算ok，从始至终都被盒子里的未知东西吸引，最后的亮丽登场果然没让人失望，造型诡异又不失美感，很是喜欢！
气氛还行，就是这群人为什么要数数没太讲清楚。再次证明，如果一样东西标注了远低于自身价值的价格，那你一定会付出点别的。
【D+】现在连恶魔都开始讲究数学和物理，做驱魔人真是越来越不容易了。
2星半吧，故事比较老套，前一个小时剧情沉闷，最后那盒子里的怪物形象倒是比较怪异，最后结局什么意思，女主也钻进盒子里了吗？
物理学家父亲的女儿怎么可能在活了，她警告：不仅是地窖，也是整个房子！可惜是失去了家人，这个电影是悲剧的
很好看啊，就是译名有点拉低档次。结尾也很出彩。
居然没有一惊一乍还不错！数学被黑的最惨一次。
一般电影，住在只限女子入住的廉价宾馆，结果是需要女子作祭品，获得可以实现愿望的魔神垂怜。剧情还行，前半段有些无聊。惊艳和反转之处在于，第一，魔神外形塑造，有种扭曲，诡秘的感觉，又仿佛是《灵笼》噬级兽的翻版；第二，结局幸存之人，终究抵不住诱惑，变成了魔神的仆人，劫后余生又化作劫。
垃圾编剧……完全通过拖沓和黑暗营造恐怖紧张的气氛……当爹的仿佛空气一般的存在，女儿经过鬼吹灯后离奇失踪，竟然只靠女主来作为侦破主力，全程死板推进，很多惊悚镜头给的也是莫名其妙，比如小儿子在游戏室玩游戏的时候类似算盘的珠子移动和暗门的开启，女主和小儿子经过类似智障之间的几句对话后竟然直接翻篇，对暗门开启和小儿子莫名其妙数数走向暗门完全视而不见……作为丈夫更是完全没有任何参与，为何不把剧情设定为单亲妈妈带俩娃的故事？小儿子也仿佛木头一般的存在，演技完全不在线。恶魔也是弱到爆，这一露面简直让我吐血，还不如西游记里的牛魔王吓人，真的还不如不露面……进到另一纬度空间到万人广场找女儿什么鬼？原路返回后竟然开始中国鬼打墙？房子出口又接上了地窖楼梯……那万人广场怎么解释？总之整部电影演的乱七八糟又莫名其妙
剧情★★★恐怖★★
