I wanted to watch this flick for many years and I was really glad when I finally managed to get my hands on it. Indeed, it is a really intriguing flick and for many reasons. First of all, it was Tony Scott’s directing debut and the weirdest and most interesting thing about this flick is that it has absolutely nothing to do with anything else Tony Scott has done afterwards. Indeed, Tony Scott has... read more

Description: Catherine Deneuve and David Bowie are rich, beautiful and chic denizens of the night. Dressed in sleek outfits and stylish sunglasses, they haunt rock & roll clubs on the prowl for young blood, whom they bring home to their impossibly luxurious mansion for a late-night snack. Being a vampire never looked more sexy, but there's a price: Bowie starts to age so fast he wrinkles up in the waiting room of a doctor's (Susan Sarandon) office. Deneuve, is a millenniums-old bloodsucker who seeks a new mate in Sarandon and seduces her in a sunlight-bathed afternoon. Tony Scott's directorial debut, adapted from the Whitley Stri ... (more)

Movie Reviews (1101-1150) (50 movies items)

" A sexy erotic vampire movie directed by Tony Scott as a pop music video. It is one of the most distinctive 1980s time capsules that has been produced during this decade, but it was the lesbian scenes between Catherine Deneuve and Susan Sarandon that got the most news coverage. David Bowie do a good performance as the other vampire who gets ditched by Deneuve for Susan. But I hate the song that introduce the film. No horror fan can ever accept a song called "Bela Lugosi's dead" since Bela Lugosi"

Lessons To Be Learned From Horror Films (218 movies items)

"Vampires need love too. Sure, they suck blood and feed on humans, but that doesn't mean they are not capable of feelings, longing, and love. Also, if you love someone, set it free."
