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".
“不读《红与黑》，就无法在政界混的”……完全是当黑帮片拍了。感觉是假装大卫·芬奇拍的蝙蝠侠。
为什么要用超级英雄题材拍一个早就过时的侦探类型片。三个小时的时长，以为最后一幕会憋个大招，结果是一个哑炮
对没有预想中黑暗耿耿于怀。最深的黑是人物内心世界的幽暗，这也是哥谭诸位人杰的魅力。但这部无论正反人物都过于坦荡简单。上线的三大反派企鹅人、谜语人、罗马人，表演再好也都是工具人属性，不要说达到小丑或双面人的高度，甚至赶不上黑暗骑士崛起的贝恩。蝙蝠侠更是从头到尾毫无犹疑扫黑除恶，复仇的阴影止于开头、对父亲的怀疑没持续五分钟就被阿福化解、来自母亲的疯狂基因则只成拍摄续集的铺垫。结尾化身抗洪抢险好市民后激情演说的段落怎么看都彻底走味儿。但还是想给一个五星。纵有千般不是，新蝙蝠侠也在游乐场化的超英片面前，捍卫了电影的尊严。
哈哈哈哈，蝙蝠侠要是不信共产主义这片很难收尾！
当巨大的、红色的“The Batman”大字在漆黑的背景中倏然出现，思绪便不可挽回地被拉回到第一次翻开《元年》的那个平淡无奇的夏天下午。这是从未有过的体验。第一次，我们在银幕上看见了这样一个青涩、偏执、忧伤、阴冷、沉郁、莽撞、毫无生气的蝙蝠侠，但他同时也善良、果断、坚守底线、富有同情心。就像在过去的漫画阅读经验中见识到的那样：一个侦探、一个疯子、一个绝望之人——而马特·里夫斯用一部古典、细腻、缓慢的film noir去完成了这些。我会说《新蝙蝠侠》是最好的超级英雄电影吗？大概还是不会。至少它没有好过《黑暗骑士》。但《新蝙蝠侠》一定是最好、最动人的一部蝙蝠侠电影，它绝对将会是我最爱的一部蝙蝠侠电影，而罗伯特·帕丁森的蝙蝠侠也绝对将会是我最爱的一版蝙蝠侠。
算是近年超英影视剧中的一大清流，马丁斯科塞斯看了愿意成为“电影”的佳作，各代蝙蝠侠中视听最惊艳、文艺气息最浓的一部，以悬疑片为底色，着重刻画了蝙蝠侠从复仇莽夫到城市守护者的心路历程，暗黑的气质配上优秀的视听大大拉高了电影观赏度，虽然收尾稍显仓促，但瑕不掩瑜，期待后续的续集了
本来以为罗帕又寡又辣，但是和佐伊一比完全输掉了啦。猫女太辣了🥰🥰，和蝙蝠侠体型差辣到我流口水。喜欢一些没有超英光环的蝙蝠侠（看上去就很可怜很丧逼还很穷），就是一个被哥谭wron out的人民警察，但却爱上当英雄。最后表白一下蝙蝠车：看到你出场后我好像恋爱了🥰。
空洞無聊的「史詩電影」放縱、長而寬廣的慢節奏鏡頭，沒有對話的場景為了展示空洞的美感，只要一對比Tim Burton 的《Batman Return》（兩部電影設置和劇情是何其相似），同樣是黑色，Tim 給預三個角色身上不同的質地，互為鏡子關係的三人都是邊緣人，劇情不怎樣完整也好，視覺元素有一定補足，比如企鵝人身邊一系列兒童玩具武器與他作為孤兒的成長，或者貓女的光亮皮革服飾與她地味的對照，孤獨是可視覺化的。但這一部呢，究竟為我們早已認識的角色們提供了什麼信息。電影確實是黑，連Gordon 也由黑人來扮演了，電影中的黑除了讓人看不見，意義何在，除非進場只為了看Pattinson 西口西面做苦悶文藝青年？PTA有一則話很認同，「一部電影最好是兩個小時內，那是他們最佳狀態。」但如果本身是沒有什麼想說，這長達三小時的電視劇預告片，一切只是空活。
“不读《红与黑》，就无法在政界混的”……完全是当黑帮片拍了。感觉是假装大卫·芬奇拍的蝙蝠侠。
我不会忘记当初诺兰的蝙蝠侠让我对超英电影彻底改观，但如今在电影院的三小时里我想通了一件事：我已经与现今DC电影价值观背道而驰渐行渐远。这像是一群保守派老白聚在一起反复观赏上世纪白男电影后做出来的又一部白男电影。与其说蝙蝠侠是个义警，不如说是个贵族骑士，只是在帮助权贵阶级捶打底层反抗，维持他精英视角中的岁静秩序。电影最后一味将底层阶级塑造成疯子、极端分子、精神病人，从而令他们曾受到系统性不公而发出的质问统统变成了虚伪的话术，最终消解在富二代公子（视觉上）有如神降一般的救赎中。视听华丽的外壳，想必是影评人最爱的那种“cinema”，如果当代电影意味着这些，那对现实来说是挺悲哀的。
DC回归初心，回归了暗黑的detective，内核非常棒，三个小时的反腐倡廉教育片。
刀刃向内！哥谭市扫黑除恶专项行动揪出保护伞无数！不管是影调还是所谓正义，都披了层黑皮，就挺没劲的。哪怕复兴了一把姨学，也挺隔靴搔痒。
啊我真是太喜欢这久违的DC质感了！冲动一点地说，甚至三部曲都要给这一部让路！导剪正联《Hallelujah》，新蝙蝠侠《Something in the Way》，这两首歌太顶了。去掉了超级英雄身上的神性和科技感，把平民的故事还给平民，对人性当中的正恶参半和城市体制中混沌和秩序的微妙平衡刻画得如此真实，甚至让人不觉得在看架空漫改，而是现实的肉眼可见的延伸。P.s.还能看到不少V和教父的影子。
3.5好的部分是视觉效果我太喜欢了，阴冷的城市迷幻的灯光和下不完的雨，把我三个小时都钉在座位上。但所有白男审视下的正义观、城市精神、两性关系都显得比较薄弱，撕扯中的价值，在风雨飘摇的城市里摇摇欲坠。justice的两面，被程序正义困住的两方，Batman和Riddler都显得极端且扭曲，绕过公权力执行natural law的人，谁也不比谁优越，“是否越界”不能成为两者的简单二分，黑白叙事自始至终都难以成立。美国文化框架之下城市精神的基石正在被摧毁，老鼠的啮齿是一记强有力的隐喻，空洞的口号和空荡的司法行政内核彼此映照，但在除了唤起观众的重新反思之外，好想无法给予更多的思想养分。
雨夜，都市，侦探，美女，年度十佳
蝙蝠侠和猫女都好辣🥵喜欢喜欢，立意我也很喜欢，和氛围融合得很好。罗伯特看那个小孩的眼神，绝了
看完了，如果说前两个小时是对故事的陈述，那么最后一幕绝对是神来之笔，很庆幸这版蝙蝠有很多人on his way，从置身事外的旁观者转变为参与者，从暗夜使者变成黑暗骑士，他手中的火苗给了哥谭新答案，所以出续集i'm really interested，片子里出色的配乐和环境光也很棒！最后请务必让猫女姐姐橄榄我靴靴！！！
因恨而生 恨的阴影也必将如影随形 所以不得不说帕丁森版的蝙蝠是最贴近我想象的一版 几个照顾粉丝的高潮镜头也完成得不错 我这个伪蝙蝠粉满足了；那场电梯口漆黑枪战戏好精彩！梦回蛰伏黑暗的matt reeves 最后说一句非常期待barry的小丑
三个孤儿的故事。好像脱离原生家庭创伤的主题，叙事机制就会瞬间无法自圆其说所般令人可笑。
疲惫的侦探，罪恶的都市，无休止的雨......但还是觉得缺少了什么。文本很一般，好几处调度倒是古典又迷人。
