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".
依旧是温暖的故事 夏目变得厉害了呢 一拳ko娘口三三
越来越低龄傻白了。每次新作都一如既往让夏目重复那些孤独但温暖的独白+穿插回忆杀，这么多年了，只能让人觉得一点成长都没有，恰情怀吃相有点难看哦。all夏的cp炒烂了，开始给田沼安cp了吗，刻意卖腐、太尬了。编剧江郎才尽，两个平庸寡淡的TV小故事凑一起就好意思叫做剧场版？【黑田崇矢声音真好听 过去几季加起来台词都没这么多 加一星】
时隔多年，等不到新的一季，只有偶尔的剧场版，依旧熟悉温暖
纳兹咩有能力保护他想保护的人了
人生简单又不简单。每次看夏目友人帐，总感觉是发生在夏日傍晚的故事，一切都很安静，如果可以一直平凡又简单快乐的活着，或许也是一件很好的事。
因为被期待了，所以想要回应这份期待，呜呜呜我太理解这种感受了，以及，三筱人间形态是真帅啊！！
本来以为是剧场版，后来发现是两个单独的小故事。可是一如既往的好哭，两篇温暖治愈小故事 夏目身边的朋友都好温柔啊。
看之前以为无非是个爱情类型片，结果处处都是反套路、反常规的小妙笔，有人说像海派伍迪·艾伦，能感觉到导演一定是个很会生活、脑子很灵的年轻姑娘（之前她就靠写文章红出圈过），就是传说中那种万里挑一的有趣灵魂。接触过导演本人后，更会被她的可爱脱俗打动。这是一部纯沪语电影，上海浓度极高，把魔都的精致、文艺、烟火气、多元文化包容力，以及上海人的精明、世故、温软、飒爽拍得很生动，看完片很想马上飞去上海钻进小巷咖啡馆里度过一个悠闲的下午。难得的是，这部电影小资却不拜金，文艺而不矫情，致敬大师但不装逼，有对消费主义热潮的反思精神，也有非常现代独立的女性视角，方方面面都很合我的口味。三位女演员都美丽动人，徐峥的形象耳目一新，宁理老师戏份不多但超有魅力！看这群人聊天，会让人觉得中年人的世界也是可以很美好的。
又丧又治愈。他说不可结缘，徒增寂寞，他说身边热闹不代表就是充实，他说人类的数十年对妖怪而言转瞬即逝……可共赏的月色如此美丽，总是让人怀念。
人的终结虽来得突兀，但始终是一种解脱。
夏目终于从一直被欺负的那个人变成了可以帮助，保护他人的人了。所以，闲得娘口三三越来越胖了嘛~~
我觉得很感人的就是夏目想和猫咪老师一起走地道，还有田沼对三筱的感情。三筱人形好高啊555
两个小故事的合辑。《石起》部分一直期待小妖怪变强的反转，但还是以夏目式的温馨结束，其实也是对的，因为它本身就是弱小但内心强大。《可疑访客》居然讲三笹，田沼的这个故事其实必然发生，作为有灵力却不能见到妖怪的人，多少会对朋友嫉妒或自卑，安排了一个三笹的故事来映衬，也让田沼终于与唯一能见的鱼塘幻影有更深的接触，这样很好。
😭夏目是我最喜欢的动漫。。。太温柔了。。。
有生之年 两个小故事 剧场版的话有一点点赶进度 三蓧的故事更棒一点
作为B站大会员也还是要再掏两毛五才能看，作为一部剧场版而言太平淡了，想看名取的恩恩怨怨和打打杀杀。
被朋友拉开差距的感觉很痛苦。
夏目是2014年一个女生推荐给我看的，每次我看夏目的时候都会想起她，也会觉得自己要做一个温柔的人。
小小的三美真可爱啊 片尾曲听着还是很悲伤 虽然悠扬的唱着悲伤被温柔包容 努力的活着
ED真好听！
