The Hunger is a 1983 erotic horror film directed by Tony Scott in his directorial debut, starring Catherine Deneuve, David Bowie, and Susan Sarandon. It premiered at the 1983 Cannes Film Festival, was released in the spring of 1983 by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and has accrued a cult following within the goth subculture in the years since its release. I can't find this free through any streaming service now, but it's worth looking for. Finding vampire films with any originality is difficult these days, and this one adds a bit of a different take.

Reviews were mixed. I liked it.
