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".
淦！好装逼好套路好中二但是，打的真的好好看啊！英雄难过美人关好得劲儿啊！刀起刀落眼花缭乱的好爽啊！眼见一个舔血抱刀坐着休息的杀手渐渐放下防备睡熟在身边，这踏马谁能不动心啊！
剑心追忆篇是拔刀斋的结束也是剑心的开始。当年对追忆篇剧场版非常着迷，那种缱绻的柔情和刀光血映的对比，比绝大多数的剑戟作品更具内涵。真人版虽然角色造型已经很到位了，就是在感觉上再难现出动漫剧场的味道。
光看劇情介紹已經很傷心了嗚嗚嗚。看完以後覺得，編劇沒有我想像的那麼drama，但場景比我想像的要美很多。其實沒有過去的劍心，肯定也就沒有十年後的他。這個系列的演員，從主角到配角為什麼都演得這麼好！砂糖是我看到過的第一個當之無愧的撕漫男。雖然村花演繹得很完美，但我已經先入為主地喜歡薰殿和十年後的劍心了。好想知道他中間的十年都去哪裡浪了。
看完这部变成了妥妥的巴党，啊，绝美爱情哭死人。剑心知道巴是间谍后失魂落魄到最后巴死在他怀里全程虐爆。啊......这部无比心疼剑心，我感觉我貌似更喜欢以前的心重娃，后面变得有点呆萌了。男主女颜值真能打，看的非常赏心悦目
打戏如预期的精彩,是全片的精髓.尤其剑心和冲田总司的一战,也算是弥补了动漫作品留白的遗憾.
追忆篇的OVA被称为史上最强OVA，带着如此严苛的预期来看这一部，也完全没让人失望。少了动作戏，多了细腻的情感表达，虽然节奏略显缓慢，文戏也中规中矩，但武戏刀刀见血，细节全部到位。佐藤健的表演很不错！雪代巴也基本令人满意，只不过要完美还原雪代巴，实在太难了。如果说有什么遗憾的话，我想若能早几年拍就好了，毕竟幕末的剑心才十几岁。
系列最佳，没了那些奇形怪状的二次元造型角色，总算有点时代剧的样子；谷垣健治这一集的动作戏亦属系列最佳，总算见血了，几段刺杀拍得迅猛凌厉，血浆飞溅那个爽快，徐克什么的真该跟他合作一把。可惜导演功力还是不大行，没拍出那种历史潮流中被政客以远大理想之名操控充当杀戮武器的工具人的悲哀，爱情戏也没弄好。村花自身气质偏暖，没演出雪代巴的清冷御姐范。冲田总司那发型入选年度tony奖。3.5
只能再次感叹，还是追忆篇的故事最好看，还有佐藤健选的太好了。
雖然我不喜歡，但我心中的又一個經典系列落幕了，所以情懷分+1，四星。愛砂糖，愛所有演員
这节奏差到窒息，怎么把这个系列看起来文本最好的故事拍成这样的啊
导演一定觉得自己在写诗！摈弃了前几集很多戏谑的元素，气氛严肃了很多。但除了动作戏外所有情节的节奏都慢的出奇！村花心若冰霜、眼神呆滞的演技，表情缺乏层次感，明明该有很多情感和内心戏的角色，和任何角色的对戏却冷冷淡淡，说是丧夫之痛，但总该有对比有变化，才能体现爱上剑心的复杂心路过程。3.5星！一是画面和构图是真的好，二是这个系列终于脱离了不断和怪人砍杀的叙事结构，开始关注剑心作为一个杀手的心态转变的过程，让人感觉焕然一新！PS 建议全程1.25倍速观看，部分文戏1.5倍速观看！
最后那段漫天雪地中的凄美之战，影片所呈现出的意境是真心到位，为浪客剑心与那个时代的故事，以及整个系列，画上了圆满句点。
只看过真人版的我本来想打四星的，和我一起看的小伙伴特别失望，让我一定要去看动画版。看完动画版之后，真人版在我心中便降到三星了( ･᷄ὢ･᷅ )动画中这么多意向怎么都删干净了！陀螺（这个可能真因演员年龄限制没办法演小孩，删掉了没办法）酒的味道，剑鞘，每次杀人就会流血的疤，最后剑心路上多次呼喊的“和我回大津！”，哪一个不是泪点！哪一个不是承上启下的关键剧情！怎么都没有了！！！(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻桂和艺伎在动画中也是剑鞘关系，在电影里就跟玩物一样，让人失望
本来戏外还觉得砂糖没什么年龄感，戏里一看才惊呼砂糖是真的老了
一个剑客的传奇从此开启。把这追忆作为最终篇还是让人意味深长。
好多世界名画。比漫画高两头，比动画矮半头吧。
偏黑色调代表绯村的迷惘，皑皑白雪封存剑心的温热。
此外感觉配乐也是远不如动画版优秀.
跟动画版很像，不得不说动画版分镜真的很漂亮，还原动画感觉的这个真人版观感也就不错。
真正的全局展开反而没有在人诛篇里寥寥几个画面来的触动
