Martin (John Amplas) es un adolescente que cree ser un vampiro. Su primo Cuda (Lincoln Maazel) se convence del hecho, a pesar que Martin no teme al ajo, o a los crucifijos, y que puede salir a la luz del sol. Cuda cree que Martin es víctima de una maldición familiar, y que la única solución es salvar su alma. Más que una película de terror, "Martin" es un drama psicológico con ribetes muy particulares, como la necesidad de Martin de tranqulizar a sus potenciales víctimas, de manera que estas no sientan temor o pánico o las compulsivas llamadas telefónicas que efectúa a un programa de radio para explicar la auténtica naturaleza del vampirismo. Pero cuidado, el chico no es un mero alienado o un joven inadaptado. Carece de colmillos, pero utiliza hojas de afeitar para cortar la piel de las personas y beber su sangre.
Directed by George A. Romero

    Great atmosphere, great acting. An underrated Romero gem. Loved it.

    Gloomy atmosphere, very borderline horror; I believe this movie kinda inspired the 1983 film "Angst" to be made.. the house invading and the rapes was very raw and disturbing. Perfect ending, i simply loved it.

    The Italian dubbed, English subbed, Dario Argento Cut with Goblin score. I think I like this version better than the theatrical cut. The theatrical version opens with the train kill, which is cool. But in Argento’s cut, the train sequence is moved to after he’s arrived at Cuda’s. Because the opening titles are attached to the train sequence, if effectively gives this cut A Long Cold Open. Loved the Goblin score here and it gives the film a completely different feel from the more subdued Rubinstein score. The last major difference I noticed was that all of the sections where Martin calls into the radio station are completely removed. Even though the result is that we get less insight into Martin’s headspace, I think the edit flows much better. I remember noting that the theatrical version’s edit felt very choppy in places, but I really didn’t feel that this time. I’m still really holding out hope 🤞🏻🤞🏻 that the 3.5 hour black and white director’s cut somehow finds a release, but it sounds like those plans have been scrapped, for now. 😢
