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".
不敢越雷池一步，可如今哪有绝对正确？
歌很棒，已经完全被诗音迷住了
这个奶奶也太现实了吧，没用的就不给一点好脸色看
讲真这算是近期皮克斯五十六个民族五十六枝花系列里最好看的一部了，挡不住歌好听花好看呀，人物也都是个个活在自己世界里的戏精但本来就拉丁个性不烦人，反倒有种惹人怜爱的小动物气质，帅爷爷死于战争的背景也令人感怀但恐怕是笔不要细说的烂账，至少很难轮到北美人民来细说，也许这就是最后想想什么问题矛盾也没有反派也没有显得屋要倒了很撒逼。
又是女主拯救世界的剧情，冰雪、长发、海洋。。。能用心打磨剧本换个思路吗。 够无聊，里面没有一个让人喜欢的角色，也没有一个让人留下印象的角色，歌舞显得刻意和吵闹，完全没有当年狮子王那样自如和灵气，魔法世界来得毫无逻辑，纯属编剧一心情愿，最大冲突的支撑理由过于刻意，属于强行制造戏剧冲突。迪士尼这么多年还在吃合家欢动画的老本，可惜了雄狮少年，在这一堆不能打的动画里显得与众不同，妥妥的年度最佳。 虽然知道今年最佳动画是矮子里面拔高个，可我实在没想到是它，这大概是奥斯卡史上最烂的最佳动画了。逃跑也比这个强啊，好莱坞你们继续自娱自乐吧。
大河内一楼，在近未来青春动画校园音乐（指在严肃的场景里原地无特效唱歌）电影里加入悬疑jump scare和谍战元素，和以为能猜到剧情发展的地方的“居然！” 标准大河内三件套 不过这次居然还行……可能是因为我先看了细田守
220527：(续)这未尝不是一种有趣的宣传手段，比一个人坐摄像机前干说一大通强多了..
2、一言不合就歌舞，迪斯尼并购宝莱坞的野心瞒不住了
暗线是love.VS.authority.
开始看评分太低，一直蛮抵触的，但看了发现明明很有趣很可爱呀，绝对是及格线以上的动画作品了，歌也超级好听~故事性确实弱了一点，但动画歌舞片看得开心就最重要嘛。每个家人都好有特点，特别喜欢布鲁诺舅舅呜呜~如果人人都能有主题曲就好啦，看着感觉太短啦！
想起《可塑性记忆》和《星之梦》里关系到人工智能 AI 寿命的剧情，这部比较牵涉到 AI 的法规，但没有深入描写；《让我聆听爱的歌声》围绕校园的故事，讲述 AI 如何为主角团带来幸福。迪士尼式的载歌载舞是本作的点晴之笔，AI 的自我学习和长年的守护是最大的浪漫。虽然整部作品立意美好，但有些情节也不禁让观众反思自主AI的隐忧。唯一能肯定的是，这么强大又可爱又美丽的AI在有生之年是遇不到了。

罹患西亚哇塞PTSD。里美好可爱，妈妈很帅气。貌似是JC自少革剧场版后二十多年间唯一的原创剧场动画。喜欢剧中烟花绽放的景观，太阳能板映照夜空的密度，“天气轮之柱”。其实还是很青春的。
我也想要一個AI朋友，還有各種智能家店😂
电影最喜欢前半小时，后面有歌曲但是最后收尾太仓促，就莫名其妙Abuela婆婆和自己的孩子Bruno和好了，最后Mirabel的天赋和Abuela一样，没有特别的魔法能力，但能掌管好整个房子，打破了传统理念。
[视]导演<夏娃的时间>，歌舞片，电子宠物，人工智能，校园斗争，企业斗争。
从没有过让我笑得这么欢又哭得这么猛的观影经历。是只有霓虹才做的出来的科幻青春校园片了。
Bruno那段苦情戏真是有惊到我，反向寄生虫是吧。
