THE HUNGER: vampire David Bowie and the fleeting nature of fame
Vampire films from the 1980s take the stage as the next genre for Four Play, kicking off with Tony Scott's The Hunger from 1983. The movie relishes in emerging Goth music, culture, and aesthetics during the period while simultaneously exploring the torturous downsides of eternal life. The Hunger is beautifully shot and paced, allowing it to provide an excellent viewing experience in spite of an understated plot and hokey ending. David Bowie, Catherine Deneuve, and Susan Sarandon feature in the film as it uses its star-power to explore the fleeting nature of fame. Learn more about your ad choices.
