Aren't all vampire movies gay? Maybe today, but The Hunger was something new when it came out, an erotic bi/lesbian vampire thriller (co-starting bi icon David Bowie) was steaming up the screen long before the 90s queer vampire craze.

Miriam promises her lovers the gift of eternal life, but John, her companion for centuries, suddenly discovers that he is getting old minute by minute, so he looks for Dr. Sarah Roberts, a researcher on the mechanisms of aging, and asks her for help.

The international breakout from out Taiwanese "slow cinema" auteur Tsai Ming Liang takes place on the rainy closing night of a once-majestic cinema in Taipei. As an old martial arts movie plays, we follow the staff and patrons (and gay men cruising the bathroom) one last time before the cinema shuts its doors for good.

On a dark and rainy night, a historic and regal Taipei cinema sees its final film: 1967 martial arts feature “Dragon Inn”. As the film plays, the lives of the theater’s various employees and patrons intersect, and two ghostly actors arrive to mourn the passing of an era.
