Tony Scott’s first film. It is very loosely based off a novel by Whitley Strieber, but the novel and its sequels aren’t very good. The movie is a better version of the story. Miriam is another species, implied to be an alien in the novels. This movie does suffer from style over substance in my opinion, but it is very cool and memorable style.

She taught me to recognise the signs and stay the hell away...

Bowie and Deneuve are meant to be hundreds of years old. At 1:58 they're probably saying "Would you believe the crap they call music these days? It's all just noise, and you can't even hear what they're singing, bloody kids don't know they're born, I miss the war" (etc.).

I thought I wasn't feeling well, was up til 7AM watching these dern films. This is one of best opening scenes I have ever seen. Everything about it pops off the screen with flavor and style. That "Bela Lugosi Is Dead' piece is straight fire 🔥one of the baddest joints ever.

I have watched this movies several, I meant about 7 or more times. I only remember Bauhaus and how much Catherine Deneuve was beautiful and was so classy. I always thought Peter Murphy should played the part instead of David Bowie. David Bowie was unconvincing because, even he married a woman in real life, he was to gay. Even if the woman was Catherine Deneuve, the other part was unconvincing too. Because a vampiress wouldn't never fall in love for that flavourless, uncharismatic, actress.
