The HUNGER

Last night I finally watched The Hunger starring Cathrine Deneuve, Susan Sarandon and David Bowie. From Wikipedia:

"The Hunger was not particularly well received on its release, and was attacked by many critics for being heavy on atmosphere and visuals but slow on pace and plot. Roger Ebert, for example described it as "an agonizingly bad vampire movie".[1] However, the film soon found a cult following that responded to its dark, glamorous atmosphere. The long Bauhaus song Bela Lugosi's Dead plays over the introductory credits and beginning."
I loved it. On a side note it was directed by Tony Scott, brother or Ridley Scott, who directed one of my favorite movies, Alien.
