About this product

Product Information

Director George Romero turns the vampire genre on its ear in this creepy, original 1978 effort. John Amplas stars as the title character--an alienated, depressed, and fangless 18-year-old denizen of an industrial town who is compelled to kill and drink blood. But is he really a vampire, or is he merely suffering from psychosis? His elderly uncle Cuda (Lincoln Maazel), whom Martin lives with and in whose grocery store he works, seems to believe the former, calling the young man Nosferatu and waving garlic and crosses in his face. But Martin isn't that type of vampire--he prefers to use syringes and razor blades for his bloodletting. The film takes an interesting turn when the lonely youth turns to a radio call-in program to talk about his compulsion. While this twist could easily be played for laughs, in Romero's hands it becomes insightful and unsettling.A deliberate character study, MARTIN has intense performances, a uniquely disturbing mood, and an effectively grainy, shadowy look. Romero's eccentric vampire film avoids hitting on a gut level, choosing to shock viewers on a psychological one instead.

  • Vampire...maybe, but does it really matter.

    This is a very different, yet entertaining installment from George Romero (Night of the Living Dead, DOTD, etc.) The main character lives as a sort of vampire, if nowhere else but his head. He uses a razor to quench his blood lust. His hallucinations of an alternate, romanticized life as a vampire really seem to introduce his skewed state of mind. If you are looking for an average vampire film, this is not for you. If you are looking for something a little more thought provoking and original, this is certainly the movie for you.

  • Martin - a new age vampire - he is really undead ????

    Different type of vampire...! For sure !!! Is he really an 86 years old vampire...? I beleive it even if film director does not !!!! This movie is very 1976... and it shows... especially in action sequences witht he police car and policemen.... Not an excellent... but a good and DIFFERENT vampire movie. If you have an uncle like his, maybe you prefer to be undead !!! Richard
