The Hunger
Scientist Susan Sarandon replaces ageing David Bowie in vampire Catherine Deneuve's affections in director Tony Scott's visually sumptuous adaptation of Whitley Strieber's enigmatic bestseller. Set against a generally effective backdrop of immortal decadence, embodying several centuries of glossy fashion and culture, this MTV-influenced undead tale emphasises razzle-dazzle style over story content, despite an understated mix of sly humour, sexual mystery and clever make-up illusion. A spin-off anthology sequel and TV series has been produced with brothers Tony and Ridley Scott in command.
