Hosted by Terence Stamp (Smallville, Valkyrie) and inspired by leading horror writers, this macabre anthology series from Ridley & Tony Scott, features a phenomenal cast of familiar faces including Daniel Craig (Quantum of Solace, The Golden Compass), Balthazar Getty (Brothers & Sisters, Alias), Golden Globe winners Sally Kirkland (Bruce Almighty, Anna) and Bruce Davison (X-Men, Longtime Companion), Academy Award nominee Karen Black (Five Easy Pieces, Easy Rider), and many more. The Hunger: The Complete First Season includes all 22 episodes, complete and uncut, for the first time in one deluxe 4-DVD set.
In The Hunger, demons, vampires, and fantasy run wild in a mesmerizing cross between The Twilight Zone and Tales from the Crypt. The half-hour episodes feature horrific stories, with themes of self-destructive desire and obsession. From cannibalism to uncontrollable lust, from vampires to evil spirits, the one common thread is a pervasive sense of eroticism. The Hunger originally aired for two seasons (1997-1999) on Showtime in the U.S., and took its name from the 1983 urban vampire film starring David Bowie, Catherine Deneuve and Susan Sarandon. The Hunger: The Complete First Season also includes the original “making of” segment – an introduction to the second season with David Bowie, who replaced Stamp as host in 1999.
The Hunger: The Complete First Season DVD cover
ridley scott fav- Thelma & Louise
tony scott- Man on Fire
great films.
Alien because it is action packed and I remember watching the first Alien with my Dad. Man on Fire because it is action packed & Iove rewatching it with the hubby
Ridley – Blade Runner/Alien
Tony – True Romance
This looks like a great film. Another great contest from film fetish
Ridley Scott’s Alien is his best in my opinion. The intensity of this film even as a small child was shear pleasure. Sci/fi and horror brought to the surface to which I still to this day thoroughly enjoy watching. Tony Scott’s Man On Fire is his best in my opinion, also. His casting of Denzel Washington in this film brings out the best in his talents of directing and working together with a great cast. The action and drama along with a great story made this his best.
Ridley Scott’s best film of all time is Alien. The best horror/sci fi movie ever.
Tony Scotts best film:“Man on Fire”, cause it’s full of action.
Ridley Scott’s best was Alien, it started the whole thing off, and Tony Scott’s best was Top Gun, that was a great movie, I liked the jets.
I loved Tony Scott’s Deja Vu – purchased it as a DVD and had to watch it more than once, because of its complexity, which I liked! Also who can forget Ridley Scott’s Alien – saw it in the movie theater and the yell and shock that went through the audience when the alien jumped out of the body was invigorating!
How did I miss this one?
Ridley Scott’s best film of all time is Alien-I love horror movies
Tony Scott-I picked Top Gun because of Tom Cruise
gotta love those vamps!
Ridley Scott: Blade Runner – this was a film that kept me watching from the start to the end. I enjoyed it tremendously.
Tony Scott: Enemy of the State – Great plot and great action! I was glued to the screen the whole time.
Ridley – Blade Runner/Alien
Tony – True Romance
Ridley: Alien- it’s a classic!
Tony: Top Gun- it’s goofy, cheesy 80s fun
Blade Runner and Man on Fire, two great films
My favorite Ridley Scott’s is Alien, I like horror movies and it was new and different.
Tony Scott’s I’d go with Blade Runner, the action caught me up
ridley scott – Matchstick men because i love Nicolas Cage, he’s awesome
tony scott – Domino Keira Knightly was great in it!
ridley scott, the original alien, it was so completely different
tony scott, the andromeda strain, to be honest i havn’t seen anything by tony, but i liked the original
Ridley Scott- Aliens. One of my all time favorite movies. (yes, I liked the 2nd one better than the first)
Tony Scott- Man on Fire. Denzel is great.
Ridley Scott – Alien. At the time it came out it was extremely disturbing to me. Tony Scott – Enemy of the State. Great story!
wow, great contest
just to cool
Ridley Scott – Blade Runner. This ground-breaking science fiction film inspired tons of imitators and created a whole new genre of sci-fi. Tony Scott – True Romance. Mr. Scott inspired Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette to deliver their finest performances ever, in my humble opinion. Thank you for the chance to win.
This is so awesome. my fave is true romance ive seen it a billion times
FAV
I have to agree with Jacob. Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner is great. I loved how dark it is. Ridley’s vision of the future is amazing to watch.
Tony Scott’s True Romance has so many great actors. Gary Oldam’s white-boy day speech and Dennis Hopper’s Sicily conversation with Christopher Walken are both so funny.
I gotta go with Alien for Ridley and True Romance for Tony, great stuff! Thank you!
Ridley – Blade Runner
Tony – True Romance
I loved the movie Legend.
Ridley Scott movie that I loved was Gladiater. It was amazing with Russel Crowe.
Tony Scott movie that I loved was Tristan & Isolde. I LOVE historical movies and this one was perfect.
Thanks for this amazing giveaway.
Rdiley Scott – I enjoyed his Thelma & Louise as an unusual movie. The story was different and for once there wasn’t a Hollywood happy ending but one that seems more fitting in the context of the whole story.
Tony Scott – I am a Denzel Washington fan and I liked Man On Fire. Again, the fact that the hero (anti-hero) dies at the conclusion of the movie seemed a good fir. It sort of reminded me of the ending to that great AWestern “Shane” where he rides off into the sunset while the little boy calls “Shane, Shane. Come back Shane !”
I still enjoy Blade-Runner.
would love to win this for my kids
My favorite Ridley Scott movie is “LEGEND”. The Fantasy Good versus Evil theme was awesome, and the music was great as well. My favorite Tony Scott movie would have to be “True Romance” because of the great cast, was a great movie and it had ties with Quentin Tarantino.
tony scott-top gun great tom cruise fare and ridley scott- alien horror doesn’t get any better
Alien & Top Gun…both for the action!
ALIEN by Ridley and ENEMY OF THE STATE by Tony.
Ridleys Alien, that scared the snot out of me as a kid,.Tonys Man on Fire because Denzel kicked some butt in that film.
Tony Scott Beverly Hills Cop II (1987) and Enemy of the State (the second one reminded both my husband and I of that new movie Eagle eye) I liked them both equally and the movies that I did recognize from IMDB were very few
Ridley Scott’s Legend (1985) , prob the only Tom Cruise movie that I still watch to this day (I have the dvd) and just love Tim Curry in his role
alien cause who knows what will happen in space and top gun cause the flight scenes are so slick !!!!!
ridley – blade runner, great story and amazing effect for the time; tony – spy game, great cast and liked how redford’s character ran rings around everybody else to get things done
Ridley Scott, hands down, Alien; why? because that movie was the best sci fi ever and I’ll never forget while eating spaghetti how that alien comes out of the tummy……….awesome! lol
Tony Scott, Top Gun, hands down as well!! I loved the flying in this movie and I also enjoyed Tom Cruise, which is not common!
Thanks
I like Tony Scott’s Man On Fire and Ridley Scott’s Alien. Please accept my entry. Thank you.
Ridley Scott’s best film: I would say it is “BLADE RUNNER”,
because it is filled with lots of emotion and I loved the REPLICANTS in it.
Tony Scotts best film: I liked “Man on Fire”,because it’s loaded with action.The action kept me intrigued.
But both of these producers have made many great films,they get better and better.
My favorite Ridley Scott is “Thelma & Louise” because if was Thelma & Louise!. My favorite Tony Scott is “Enemy of the State” because it was so well put together and it starred Wil Smith!
Props to Rid Scott as Alien is one of the best science fiction films ever made; brother True Romance Tony appears to have a more absurdist world view. If they’re in a dead heat right now I’m betting the upcoming A-Team film will be the tiebreaker…..
thanks
Definetely Black Hawk Down is my favorite Ridley Scott film AND True Romance is my fav\’ from Tony Scott !!!
why? because those movies rock! extreme violence, sometimes real violence, great characters and dialogues, great sound effects and a true event on Black Hawk Down, and Patricia Arquettte on True ROMANCE!! WHaT ELSE!!!!
Ridley Scott’s best film of all time is Alien. A first true horror film set in a sci/fi locale. Atmospheric, creepy and undeniably awesome.
Tony Scott’s best film, I gotta say is Top Gun. I know, I know….but I can’t escape my penchant for 80s films and Top Gun is one of the best.
Ridley Scott film: ALIEN is by far my favorite… I was taken back by the special effects and suspense in this film is why I liked it so much.
Tony Scott film: DEJA VU starring Denzel Washington… I loved the suspense and drama is why I liked that film.
