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".
又要说了“爱要怎样才好看” BE美学才是永远滴神
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。
（一声“对不起，我的夫君”，一语双关。）
結束了..一切從此刻完結，一切也從此刻開始。整體看來比《the final》好不少，當然演到中後半大友啟史的老毛病又開始犯了，但是刀刀見血的動作場面可以讓我原諒大友節奏緩慢的問題，前一小時的動作場面真的編排極佳，過招犀利，狠勁影業隨著血漿的噴灑力道更為足夠，谷垣健志開場編排的動作場面相當厲害，是個令人眼睛為之一亮的開場。幕末時期的武士悲歌，人人都是時代的罪孽，沒有人可以逃離時代更送的宿命。巴的命運就是愛上不該愛的男人（根本斯德哥爾摩症候群🤣），劍心的宿命就是必須背負著巴，以及那些他親手砍殺的革命者繼續活下去。《the beginning》作為最終章成功達成承先啟後的任務，舊時代結束，新時代開始，但願活下來的人們能活在天下太平的盛世。
这部收官之作是成功的，几乎完美复刻当年的场景和剧情，台词，人设，经典桥段。
距离上一步浪客剑心真人版电影已经有接近十年的时间了，这部追忆篇显得尤为重要，既可以让新观众直到绯村剑心以前的故事（缘起），也能由此了解他不断挥剑的原因。打斗动作干净利落，好看。
好想回家 我自己养活不了自己啦
年轻的剑心和巴。孤独人冷沏心扉却刻骨的爱，在终于触到温度时结束了所有，都是为了维护孤独患者天生的尽忠之心和孤煞之傲。先看这部深情深刻的爱情故事，再看最终篇的低剧情爆打是正确姿势。我看反了。
如此唯美柔和的剧情片，刀光在白雪与鲜血中交错辉映，雪代巴的匕首不轻不重地划到剑心的脸上，这样的场景实在太过凄美了，只能说在乱世之中，哪怕是剑术高超的剑心都无力保住小小的幸福，更何况是千千万万的普通人呢？
还记得前面几部看得热血沸腾，一直期待还有续集。这也算是期待很久的电影，没想到全程耍酷，男女都一样，看起来根本就格格不入。
先看追忆篇。非常写意，应该是五部里面最写意文戏最多的一部，且最有正剧风。bug有瑕疵有，但不影响整体，成功勾勒凄美的情感，刀糖齐发。动荡的时代，渺小的个体，时代洪流冲刷剑与心，爱恨成全具体的人，而非工具。要打戏有打戏，要吻戏有吻戏，一个字：好，两个字：很好，三个字：非常好，四个字：我很满意。清冷少女vs野性少年，磕生嗑死。无论是浪客绯村剑心还是刽子手拔刀斋，他都是巴心爱的男人。白月光照耀他整个生命，死前那一刀是爱和守护，封印剑心的嗜血与疯狂足足十年——甚至更久。至于下一个、下下一个十年？交给薰同学了。
两笔刀伤，
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。
但却被这样敷衍了事
浪客剑心，世事苍茫，就此别过，后会有期。
杀手的感情生活。PS：女主木讷的像个机器人。
跟OVA比起来，只能用还行了，打戏一如既往的优秀
剑心让人心疼，雪代巴让人心碎……喜欢剑心二十年了，如今终于等来一个堪称完美的句号！再见了，剑心！
不像第四集总出现的片段，本片细说绯村剑心在明治维新前的残酷岁月里的角色，他是隶属于长州奇兵队的顶尖杀手，而长州的领袖桂小五郎是倒幕派，所以在京都他杀了很多幕府派的武士，与新选组也交过手，他的外号叫拔刀斋，这时有一个女子接近了他，最后与他相爱，然而女子的初衷是为未婚夫报仇来的。
搁这拍古装美少年壁纸吧，把一部动作漫改活生生拍成了睡片。它实在太拖了，又极其的俗套和无聊。谷恒健治的武术设计倒也有让人眼前一亮的时候，可惜没血浆的加持，依旧也是抵不过眼皮在打架。
