Reviews

With style and a proper helping of eroticism and blood, The Hunger gnashes its way by the teeth into that upper echelon, the pantheon of great vampire movies.

C.H. Newell, Father Son Holy Gore

Vampire movies were always cool, but it took The Hunger to make them modern.

Rob Vaux, Mania.com

The movie reeks with chic, but never, for one minute, takes itself too seriously, nor does it ever slop over into camp.
