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".
真的很紧张激烈，全程剧情没有一点多余和拉垮，每个人物都很饱满，太出乎意料了、旁边两个20+老爷们看的热血沸腾，说比NBA好看😂
风格作画值得称赞，作画过渡实属上乘
太多篮球类电影的影子了，比如绝杀慕尼黑的回秒
看漫画时想要GTO元祖，现在看完电影又想要了……

《球场上禁止使用替身和超能力，更不允许变身赛亚人》（doge）
现在看电影比较克制，避免被刻意煽情冲昏了头脑，但今年春节我唯一泪洒电影院的竟然是它。收回之前说它低幼的话，喜羊羊就是拍给我们看的。我虽然不看篮球也不打篮球，但身边有很多热爱篮球的人，他们把自己对篮球的热爱也注入到了电影中，也就是我被《喜羊羊》打动的地方。虎翼对喜羊羊说过：“伤病可能成为你放弃篮球的一个借口，但真正阻止你的，只有你自己。”嗯，就是说，对于热爱的东西，没有任何借口和理由，如果有，那就是不够热爱。还有就是主创自己撕下笔下人物身上的标签，还加入了一些契合当下时代的元素，分镜很有动感，音乐还有hippop和后摇啥的，插曲很燃。
好看的啊，虽然我并不懂篮球可是这并不影响依旧看得热血沸腾，我是个土狗我先说，真的觉得会打篮球的无论男生女生都好帅哦😭，好喜欢我们暖羊羊，永远喜欢那些默默坚持和承受 不轻易放弃的人。
许久未见的原创动力 颇多感慨。
没有特别炫丽的打斗，有的只是情怀，阿姆罗那时候还只是楞头青，你打我两次，我爸爸都没打过我，我看着都快笑死了，没有高达的阿姆罗，连一个孤儿都打不过。有了高达后就可以装13了。
这绝对可以当做一个纯篮球向的电影，而不仅仅是面向低幼儿童的动画电影。电影中的篮球战术是真的有东西，里面角色的篮球动作都很现实化，特真实。更别说里面的处处致敬NBA跟灌篮高手让篮球迷集体高潮了。詹姆斯的钉板大帽，安东尼的三指爆头的庆祝动作，一闪而过的科比动作，大梦的梦幻脚步，各种乔丹科比的跳投与拉杆，艾弗森的crossover与他经典的晃过乔丹的那一幕。20分算个屁的杜锋梗，我负责的姚明梗，当然还有无处不在的格林公式。结尾也致敬绝杀慕尼黑。满满的诚意！
在那5000多集的时光里…成长的有我们，也有我们那些丢失了的梦想和热血，还有很多久久没有联系的朋友
感动，喜欢，太棒了
跟我家宝贝刚刚看完喜羊羊回来，本来应该跟我一起坐的，结果进电影院看到有别的小朋友在前面第一时间坐到了他们旁边，也许互动交流起来可能更开心？
春节档我最惊喜的电影了，这~~~真的是比刘浩存的四海高出太多，春节档太让人失望了
谁能想到看到最燃的国产体育电影居然是喜羊羊，复刻了太多名场面了
终于看了，窝趣，真的好牛，丝滑流畅又火花四溅，致敬要素拉满……美中不足的就是短短一部电影塞了太多起承转合，显得剧情特别赶。
虽然动画特效还是一如既往的拉胯（爱之深恨之切地想要国漫发展起来），但是这部充满教育意义的影片饱含故事性和趣味性，还结合不俗的篮球分桢动作，属于推陈出新的举措，喜欢！
“热爱你所热爱的”
运动国创中的佼佼者了吧，哈哈哈
