Synopsis

Catherine DeNeuve, Academy Award winner Susan Sarandon and rocker David Bowie star in this stylishly gothic tale of a undying beauty, unending passion and their terrible cost--The Hunger.

Centuries-old Egyptian vampire Miriam (Deneuve) and her centuries-old lover, John (Bowie), feed on urban nightclub goers. But, while Miriam can bestow a very long life on her lovers, she cannot grant them her immortality. When John starts to rapidly age, Miriam seduces Sarah (Sarandon), a doctor researching premature aging.

    guilty pleasure

    06 December 2008
    When I watched this film I didn't really know what to expect but David Bowie's presence begged me to watch it. Esthetics, Beautiful people, beautiful set, beautiful music wrapped into the warm womb of blood sucking and immortality and escapism. The storyline doesn't move me, though every performance is stellar. I never develop any empathy for the characters, though I would like to sit down and have lunch with them.
    This is the kind of film one might call a guilty pleasure. No social or intellectual message or value, but imprints itself upon the emotional psyche. It provides a window into another side of one's usual self. Do I believe in vampires and the creature feature scifi world, no. But it can be fun.
