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".
不过精灵旅社一贯的无厘头沙雕风格还是很有意思的。
还好吧，1的时候很惊喜，2非常一般，3又小有回升，4可以说预料之内但起码我笑了。1是嫁女儿，2是生了孙子不会飞，3是怪物游轮第二春，4是和女婿解决信任问题，感觉这系列也没啥可讲的了，总不能开始孙子叛逆期早恋吧？
因为没什么期待反而觉得还可以，中规中矩的爆米花家庭动画片～
嗯……这片子只有3/5我不是3倍速看的，所以就三星吧。只有一个怪兽变人的点子是撑不起一整部片子的。明明有小儿子和狼妹青春期的大把题材可以拍，却搞了个不伦不类的旅行片，白瞎了
我觉得这一部要比2和3都好看，就是短了亿丢丢
这个制作，能看出花功夫了，7分。故事还是不够。没有同期喜羊羊热血，另外也有点其他故事的影子。
也算是大乱炖电影吧，给了很多奇幻，完成度尚可。故事容量太大了，节奏太快，最终总算是勉强把故事赶完了。观感有点有白蛇2青蛇，总之都很大杂烩
个人是觉得打斗太多了，会让反对的主旨成为了对孩子潜移默化的影响。当然我看了一会开始看小说了，也可能理解不到位，但这也恰恰反应了对大人的吸引力。相比《哪吒魔童降世》、《舞狮少年》差太多了。想打两分……不过影院里小朋友还是开心的，三星鼓励一下吧。
还行吧，毕竟呢，设身处地不是嘴上说，得你真是处在这种境地。反正就热热闹闹无厘头喜剧。不能深究。身份互换挺好玩
暮光之城之拜见岳父大人（都拜见了4部了，还是难以取悦啊）
没前几部好玩了，油腻自拍男弗兰肯斯坦是为数不多的笑点
個人還是非常喜歡這個系列的，人物設定立了大功，大多數笑點也都是基於此發展。大結局的幾個遺憾：1、導演Genndy Tartakovsky換了，2、德古拉的配音Adam Sandler換了，3、院綫發行取消了……但還是笑得很開心，就老朋友無腦嗨的感覺。
7/10，第四部出发点是好的，让德古拉和女婿身份对换，解除二人误会，但是前二十分钟太过于闹腾和神经质，为了创造矛盾而创做。后面夺宝奇兵寻找宝石逐渐剧情正常，我个人还是觉得这个系列德古拉和女婿关系冰释前嫌本应该放在第二部讲述，而不是大结局，喜剧动画最高境界莫过于兰戈，一本正经的搞笑，而不是为了搞笑而搞笑。
怪物和人类身份互换后带来的很多喜剧效果。真的很欢乐~既然成了一家人，就好好发掘彼此身上的优点，彼此包容，关爱，一起打造有爱的家！
但惊艳的是影片对于色彩的应用，大胆应用色彩，两个人在丛林中行走时，背景一直在切换，且都是暖色调的色彩，琳琅满目，心旷神怡。
人物剧情都很流畅，剧情是个什么鬼？！
特效挺不错的，作为一个硬科幻 ，剧情还可以 。本来要打三颗星的，另外一颗星给情怀
《精灵旅社4》，惯例追到了第四部，如豆瓣评分所示，这确实是最糟糕的一部。
我们一家三口第一次一起去汽车电影院 很开心 所以要满分纪念一下👨🏻👩🏻👧🏻
情绪低落，无聊时可以看看，热闹是主题，夹着一些小感动
