The Egyptian vampire lady Miriam subsists upon the blood of her lovers. In return the guys or girls don't age... until Miriam has enough of them. Unfortunately that's currently the case with John, so his life expectancy is below 24 hours. Desperately he seeks help from the famous Dr. Sarah Roberts. She doesn't really belive his story, but becomes curious and contacts Miriam ... and gets caught in her ban, too.
Miriam, a centuries-old vampire, preys on urban clubgoers with her vampire lover John. When John suddenly ages and wastes away, Miriam casts her spell upon Sarah, a doctor who researches premature aging. This neo-Gothic exercise in style and atmosphere is perhaps most widely known for a lesbian sex scene involving Miriam and Sarah, played by Catherine Deneuve and Susan Sarandon.

Comments:
"Arguably one of the best looking film of the 80's, The Hunger have passed the test of time quite well, despite director Tony Scott's infatuation with smoke and veils and all those over-aesthetic antics him and bro Ridley are so well-known for. Ironically, these period items are the very reason why the picture holds up so beautifully till this day. The sketchy story, the mannered (or let's say "in tune with") acting, the commercial inspired montage all to the service of a formal extravaganza, yet a controlled one. And all they converge to create this mesmerizing piece of cinematic fluff, a strange fruit to be sure, but these things becoming increasingly hard to get out of the Hollywood tree... treat yourself, have a bite." ....IMDB
