Beauty vs Beast: Eternal Lust

Jason from MNPP here - this week's edition of "Beauty vs Beast" is celebrating the 35th anniversary of Tony Scott's stylish and sexy vampire feast called The Hunger, which was yesterday. The film tells the story of the vampire couple John and Miriam Blaylock (David Bowie and Catherine Deneve) and the young doctor named Sarah (Susan Sarandon) that they seduce through billowy curtains. I don't know when I first became aware of The Hunger - I'm sure it was awhile after the movie came out given I was only five when it did - but whenever it was I became aware of The Hunger that would also mark the anniversary of my fantasy of being picked up by Catherine Deneueve and David Bowie. I don't say this very often these days but oh to be Susan Sarandon...

 

PREVIOUSLY Surprising nobody the new Avengers just broke all of box office records this weekend, but let's not yet forget its immediate predecessor - we've still got the receipts from last week's Black Panther poll to count! And y'all broke bad, giving the villainous Killmonger (Michael B Jordan) the win with 55% of your vote. Said Evan:

"Killmonger, duh. He's ribbed for your pleasure."

I vote for Miriam although.... my heart and soul will always belong to David Bowie's character in that film. Still not over him.

No one can beat a Goddess!
The man who made The Hunger is the same who made Top Gun and Beverly Hills Cop II. Crazy.

Do you really ask us to choose between La Deneuve and that bimbo sarandon nowadays? Lmao

I'm not a fan of some of Sarandon's recent political proclamations but I certainly wouldn't call her a "bimbo."

So-called liberals still picking on Susan Sarandon is so childish.Grow up.
