Roger Ebert found The Hunger ¨an agonizingly bad vampire movie, circling around an exquisitely effective sex scene.¨ Certainly, in his first feature film, Tony Scott already set his future standards for style over content. (or did perhaps he only need an excuse for getting Catherine Deneuve and Susan Sarandon in bed together?) Style's OK, but plot coherence might help a little. This is just a polished lesbian fantasy posed aggressively as a horror flick, which resulted weird and hardly satisfactory.
