About this movie

Sensual vampire story stars rock legend David Bowie ("The Man Who Fell to Earth," "The Last Temptation of Christ") as an ailing centuries-old vampire whose fanged-lover, Catherine Deneuve ("Indochine," "Repulsion," "Belle de Jour"), seeks a new partner and seduces a mortal medical researcher (Oscar-winner Susan Sarandon -- "Dead Man Walking," "Stepmom," "The Client"). Directed by block-buster helmer Tony Scott ("Top Gun," "Crimson Tide," "Enemy of the State"). With Dan Hedaya ("Clueless," "The First Wives' Club," "Marvin's Room") and a cameo by Willem Dafoe ("The English Patient," "Platoon," "The Last Temptation of Christ").

Best midnight moves from the old days.... my friends and I have seen this film over 20 times! The amazing artistry and the actors cannot be beat. The trailer says it all. A must-see!

It's a wonderful tale From the opening sequence with Bauhaus strutting their stuff, to Bowie's transformation then De Neuve admonishing the girl "Alice! ALICE!" and Susan Sarandon's seduction. I wore out the video and the DVD live in the select few items next to my player
