Why watch this film?

One of the most forgotten films by director Tony Scott ("Top Gun: Passion and Glory") is also one of his most original, albeit irregular. "The Hunger" is an erotic horror film that returns to the vampire figure one of its most striking characteristics: its sensuality. The pace is almost parsimonious to the point of excess, as the director emphasizes more style and production design, which are spectacular on their own (and have earned it its cult status in gothic culture). The unbeatable trio of Catherine Deneuve, David Bowie and Susan Sarandon overflows with sensuality on screen.
