Critic Reviews of "The Hunger (1983)"
VarietyNovember 18, 2008In his feature debut, director Tony Scott, brother of Ridley, exhibits the same penchant for eleborate art direction, minimal, humorless dialog and shooting in smoky rooms.
Time OutJune 24, 2006Visual sensualities will have a feast, but you'll have to read Whitley Strieber's novel if you don't want to emerge with a badly scratched head.
Chicago Sun-TimesOctober 23, 2004The Hunger is an agonizingly bad vampire movie, circling around an exquisitely effective sex scene. Sorry, but that's the way it is, and your reporter has to be honest.
New York TimesAugust 30, 2004The movie reeks with chic, but never, for one minute, takes itself too seriously, nor does it ever slop over into camp.
Chicago ReaderJanuary 01, 2000The obsessive conjunction of lesbian sex and flowing blood suggests a deep-seated misogyny, but neither this nor any other theme is registered with enough clarity to offend.
Butaca AnchaSeptember 26, 2016A film with legendary cast and photograph. Underestimated at the time, but like any other cult movies, was able to find its audience. [Full review in Spanish]
Antagony & EcstasyJune 24, 2013As good a horror film in the most pure, rarefied sense of "horror" that the '80s produced in English.
Mania.comMay 14, 2013Vampire movies were always cool, but it took The Hunger to make them modern.
PopMattersApril 07, 2009The focus of Hunger is emphatically the death of Bobby Sands, specifically, what happens to his body, viewed from a tragic outside and, to an imaginative extent, a determined inside.
Austin ChronicleNovember 18, 2008More style than substance, and perhaps simply an excuse to get Denueve and Susan Sarandon, Miriam's post-Bowie love, in bed together.
TV GuideNovember 18, 2008A slick, largely empty visual exercise with vague thematic overtones about a clash between American and European culture.
