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".
不同于不少人的观感，将近三个小时的时长并没有让我感到冗长与拖沓，从涅槃的someting in the way响起，我就开始喜欢这部电影的气质，潮湿的，阴郁的，危险的。红黑的色调也很有质感。不过，蝙蝠侠太被动了，个人魅力略显不足，谜语人才是真正的主角，我认为是刻画的比较成功的反派角色
太帅了，最后临危不乱的感觉简直动人心魄。看看现在的神剧拍的都是什么玩意儿...
画面好暗……原来我喜欢的诺兰拍的蝙蝠侠系列电影而已…
罪恶暗黑哥谭解谜侦探片，仿如美剧《哥谭》的延续，呼应《小丑》的文艺基调。此片拥有最绮丽景色的哥谭，剧情出色，节奏似梦游。Michael Giacchino低沉的蝙蝠侠主题曲成功驻留观众脑海。Robert Pattinson演出了完全忘却他本人的蝙蝠侠，原本期望最低的Zoë Kravitz版猫女婀娜野性，溢满极具侵略性的美！老是色诱老爷，与其几度上演暧昧戏，你俩直接拍个色情片吧！最翘首以盼的Paul Dano果然是最成功的选角！！！将其貌不扬、一举惊人的反社会变态演出不寒而栗的真实感，和Evan Peters一样一副纯良外表却超适合演变态。老爷某处镜头像极了《星球大战外传：侠盗一号》爵爷正式出场一幕——一团漆黑，一闪一闪显现出身披黑色披风之人。大涅槃的《Something In The Way》铺满阴晦消沉的氛围，恰如这苍白忧郁、稚气未脱，浪子般的布鲁斯·韦恩。[3.18看的]
暗红血色，潮湿糜烂，颓废帅气，很好看！总之给爷涨分！！！
蝙蝠侠这个角色很纠结，DC也很纠结，但你们不能在“道路”问题上一直纠结下去吧。
真的是郎情妾意啊👩❤️👨五方的下巴太适合演蝙蝠侠了 维恩少爷从头湿到尾
拿保卫黄河催眠可还行，彩色赋予了老电影新的生命。
热知识：DC=Detective Comics
感谢马丁里夫斯和罗帕，我像一个休克的病人打了三个小时葡萄糖浆，还预定了这个疗程的药。能感觉到蝙蝠侠“动机先于能力”,韦恩家族的legacy在装配他的同时也在围困他，更成为软肋。有没有面具都纾解不了紧绷、恐惧和孤儿的无助。在影院里一直在感叹调色和布光，闷燃的红色、尖锐的青紫，无论明暗都带着磨砂纸一样的触觉。2小时的黑色电影之旅真的很享受，最喜欢的片段还是在《something in the way》里看着机车骑过一圈又一圈。甚至最后的情绪还是在未完谜题里向那位满身瘢痕的侦探送上一句take care。（真的没人觉得熊猫眼妆很像The Cure的Robert Smith吗……）
马特·里夫斯，从《猩球崛起》之后就十分关注他，他的电影外壳严肃，但内核却总是温柔，谁说黑色电影就一定要苦大仇深！新版侦探与黑帮的老类型片元素回归，将其与黑暗骑士区别开来，诺兰版蝙蝠侠是关于英雄的抉择，其对英雄主义的探讨已到哲学的范畴，但新版不讲高大上的理论，不谈形而上的哲学，只展现一个愤怒复仇者到希望引领者的成长，背负父辈罪孽的他，会害怕亲人的死亡，也会爱上出生入死的伙伴，一切都恰到好处，很喜欢这版新蝙蝠侠，175分钟一点也不觉得长。
并不是彩色修复版。当年看彩色修复的《乱世佳人》已经很惊艳。其实很多国产片经典黑白片应该彩色修复，或者4K修复。
#彩色修复版#除了有些地方的嘴唇，还有配角的发际线会有很明显的痕迹，上色做得很不错。片尾的颜色对比，完全像是一部不同的片子。 内容现在看来有点陈旧，谍战的危机感比较弱，部分情节会让人觉得无语。怀疑姚伟一直喜欢李侠，一直相信他，还能根据发报声就能认出他……
低于预期。三小时只感冗长而并未在其间带出更细腻的情绪；更多地依赖于道具和装备这一设定似乎倾向于体现蝙蝠侠“普通人”的一面，就必然会牺牲一定的气势；猫女形同摆设，情感戏累赘；最后，Nirvana的歌用在这里真是说不出的奇怪啊拜托！
基于真实编写的故事。
冗长、拖沓、乏味。跟诺兰的系列比，还是差距明显。看完我觉得自己也有超能力了：超级有耐心。而且你们开枪为啥偏不朝着蝙蝠侠的下巴开呢？猫女指甲那么长怎么握拳打斗？怎么扣扳机？我的理智回答不了这些问题。我已经快被我的理智逼疯了。
电影的内容本身暂且按下不表，AI+上色，能把这两个灾难级修复技术结合在一起，资料馆领导也可谓是煞费苦心。一方面，上色这种行为彻底破坏了黑白片的光影质感，另一方面，AI修复不精细导致的频繁跳色严重干扰了沉浸体验。孙道临的眼神里无疑是有信念感的，但这些都被苍白的颜色夺走了光彩。请别让永不消逝的电波成为永不消逝的污点。
只是蝙蝠侠总感觉什么也没有阻止，只是不断想挽回些许谜语人的把戏，到最后都是如此，有些可惜。
史上最简陋的蝙蝠车，史上最狼狈最动凡心的蝙蝠侠。却也是最有血肉最侠客的蝙蝠侠。在我心中甚至比肩诺兰蝙蝠侠三部曲，互为两个极端，剧本输惨了，人物刻画赢麻了。拍出了至暗的浪漫。
将这种红色电影的叙述方式和谍战题材相结合，反而成了这部电影的独特之处。所以，她没有炫目的动作大戏，没有烧脑的情节反转，直接用主人公的正义和侵略者的邪恶相对撞，见到任务成功了我们拍手称快；见到敌人得逞了我们咬牙切齿；见到李侠（孙道临 饰）牺牲了我们潸然泪下。
