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".
看着有点乱，也完全没用心看的一部片子，也难怪没太看明白
电影剪辑的稀巴烂， 无法让人沉浸感情。最让人记忆深刻的还是李光洙，演技真赞！
学意大利语的轻松一刻就是看看这种不用耗费大脑的电影：）
我以后的零点跨年一定一步也不离开我的电脑 要我的宝贝陪着我跨年 成为我每年最后的记忆
网络电影发展到尽头，白骨精爱上关羽或丧尸大战貂蝉都能忍，这样一味的毁坏经典作品，就是犯罪了，该去判刑。
很久前我就意识到所谓“唯一的灵魂伴侣”是个伪命题，身边的伴侣往往是天时地利人和的结果，换个条件状态心境，可能关系就会天差地别，甚至不会成为身边人。我们以独立个体状态进入关系，而关系又会在不知不觉中塑造我们，重点不是“唯一”，而是专注和“眼前有缘的那一个”的发展。但电影有趣（和有更多可能性）的地方，是让人看到和不同对象与不同状况下合情合理的发展，恰到好处的切换也让观赏更有趣味。很可爱的意大利小片~
这群演员竟然会演这种电影…和真爱至上相似度过高了吧…
灵魂伴侣究竟是悖论还是真实存在，坚信存在但并不一定会发生在一生之中
硬凑周星驰周边属于是，但《大话西游》的内核没get到。很多戏直接照搬，反派太强行了。
太长了 河那寻死和光洙哭的部分还蛮搞笑的 经理和保洁员的部分 别再给我们这样的幻想了 里面的歌还蛮好听 想知道是不是真唱
其实跟《完美陌生人》有的一拼，故事不断变幻，人物情节穿梭交替，那时尚的罗马，扑面而来的文化气息，故事版本一个又一个，围绕爱情，结婚，baby，展开一个完美又陌生的画面。
像个贺岁片的拼盘，和和气气的，剧情也没有大起伏
完全没认出来Matteo，对他的印象还停留在MEDICI里面又酷又坏的帕齐家族Francisco ，这个转型也太大了！剧情的话刚开始没明白，后面很流畅～
集合这么多好演员，搞了个什么鬼。一般电影能有3条线并讲清楚就不错了，这有尼玛7条线…线多又杂，每条线都讲不清楚，每个演员都像客串。高中生，老年再会，灰姑娘，明星这4条线完全融不进主线，拼凑的简直离谱。这算什么合家欢，合家无语合家浪费时间才对。
要不是又好听的歌曲好看的演员撑着，我估计就弃剧了～情节么不用说了！
拍的跟闹着玩似的，要不是因为达叔，谁看这个啊
在电影院看的很幸福 因为在女主角一样的职位工作过 非常共感 最后电梯里那段我真实落泪 还有女主弟弟的脸完全my style
小妞电影一部。意大利真的好美，男演员好有型。
Love is strange. 爱很奇怪。看小语种电影一定要记清楚名字，还不能脸盲，这部电影对脸盲的人来说不太友好，来回切换太快。我先记清楚了名字，后来每一次切换都在想，是按男主人介绍的还是按女主人的配对。总之，爱情总是避免不了磕磕绊绊，开始顺利不一定一直都顺利，最后兜兜转转才发现，哦，原来TA也不错。soulmate灵魂伴侣真的存在吗？多数情况都是不存在的吧。真正的完美契合，大概也是不存在的吧，因为人都是独立的个体，每个人都有自己的个性，你喜欢狗，TA喜欢猫，你喜欢大海，TA喜欢高山。真实的情况是，爱情最终变成亲情，亲情多少也掺杂了点爱情，家家有本难念的经，大部分人都是缝缝补补又三年，凑合凑合差不多搭伙一起过得了...
允儿演的很好，声音巨好听。祝你新年快乐呀！
