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".
想法很好，但是剧本不够扎实，还是吹爆驱魔人
看片名就知道会是一部俗套的爱情片，毫无意外，但女主的人设还挺有趣的，幽默主动好强，其他没什么新意。ps：我要是有一个长这样的男同事，怕是第一天就沦陷了吧～～～
开场：鬼躺床上滚脏字，驱魔完事滚床单
现在好像根本没有人在拍chick flick了？之前瞄了一眼隔窗恋爱，看不下去，这个还算看下来了，烂
神父放弃自身拯救女儿的故事，如果驱魔过程能除了嗓门之外开个其他脑洞，肯定就更有意思了
还不错的恐怖片。剧情老套，但结尾台词亮了。
第一次看见神父跟附身的人干嘿嘿的事 搞笑了 后面剧情有点慢节奏
这故事真是编的天马行空啊，前段到中段都还可以，上帝、圣母都被恶魔化，后面也太扯了，片中没有一个神职人员是没和恶魔做过交易的，这部片宗教团体不出来反对一下吗？
驱魔的过程莫名有一丢丢搞笑（他们太认真了）
第一幕出来的时候我以为下成了别的什么片……后面还好，不过用镇静剂科学与恶魔斗争也是没想到，特别最后有种比谁的嗓门大的意思……感觉可以来第二部
15-079墨西哥《上帝的驱魔》
整装高升梵蒂冈，圣所从来笼阴霾。
另外说个比较女性主义视角的批评。本片的核心叙事围绕着“十八年前玛嘉莉被附身后的神父强暴”和“因强暴而诞下的女儿也被附身”两个事件展开，但受害者在片中却仿佛隐身了一样，镜头自始至终聚焦于身为施暴者的神父身上，讲述他如何悔过、如何成神，而全然忽略了真正受害的女性，甚至对性虐待情景进行了美化，最明显的场景在于神父向玛嘉莉忏悔时，身为受害者的玛嘉莉说：感谢上帝发生了那件事，否则我不会生下我们的女儿。这正是父权制下的强奸叙事的通病。
女主扮相婊气冲天，初感并不适合这个角色，但故事进行一段之后，我意识到这是个精神系M爱上折磨她的男同事的故事，也就理解了这个选角，毕竟这样才有错位感，才有喜感。另，这部影片的台词很劲爆，建议看双语字幕版。
歲末寒冬爆米花佳片，回溫5度就會覺得無聊老套拖拉沒靈魂。
“牧师把自己献祭给上帝，拯救了他的女儿和孩子们。在我看来，他就是个活生生的圣人”
轻松爱情小甜剧，挺套路，但看着开心。男主穿西装和衬衫时是很挺拔，高大帅气（但他帅的没有自己的特点，就是那种看完电影第二天就忘了的帅）。电影前半段挺好的，男女主互相敌对（拌嘴）但又相互吸引的状态看得还挺有趣的，尤其是他俩第一次kiss时电光火石。不过电影后半段剧情略疲软，讲述男主前任的故事略drama。看到时候只有英文字幕，还好台词挺简单，能看懂。
为了在不牺牲职业道德的前提下取得职业上的成功，露西开始了一场残酷的比赛，对抗冷酷而高效的对手约书亚，这场竞争由于她对他越来越有吸引力而变得复杂。
高开低走，神父驱逐恶魔，恶魔驱逐上帝，给反过来了，脑洞虽好，但是后面怎么看怎么像恐怖恶搞，但但是还是很新颖的，3星及格没问题。
可以算是我看过所有驱魔电影里最敢拍的了！
