Rating: 2/5 -- Bloody lesbian-vampire story is stylish, but no Twilight. Full Review

Rating: 9/10 -- The focus of Hunger is emphatically the death of Bobby Sands, specifically, what happens to his body, viewed from a tragic outside and, to an imaginative extent, a determined inside. Full Review

...The Blaylocks are very good company. That is, if one has a taste for vampire films....What makes THE HUNGER so much fun is its knowing stylishness...

In his feature debut, director Tony Scott, brother of Ridley, exhibits the same penchant for eleborate art direction, minimal, humorless dialog and shooting in smoky rooms. Full Review

Visual sensualities will have a feast, but you'll have to read Whitley Strieber's novel if you don't want to emerge with a badly scratched head. Full Review

...This modern vampire story looks so great, as do its three principal performers, and is so bizarre that it possesses a certain perverse appeal...

Product Description:

Catherine Deneuve and David Bowie star in Tony Scott's 1983 cult classic. This chic, stylish couple teaches music by day and feeds on humans at night. The fetching Miriam (Deneuve), a 2000 year old vampire, gave John (Bowie) the gift of eternal life hundreds of years ago, choosing him as her lover and companion. Now, Miriam is drawn to Dr. Sarah Roberts (Susan Sarandon), a specialist in premature aging, just as John begins to age rapidly. Sarah is soon Miriam's new lover, and finds herself faced with making the choice of a lifetime.
