Tony Scott’s horny vampire flick
The Hunger was the subject of Alexander McQueen’s SS96 show. In the film, an icey David Bowie and Catherine Deneuve romp about, feeding on the blood of goths and luring hopeless victims into sex-fuelled death traps.
It was this almost comedic level of blood lust that was translated onto the McQueen catwalk. Models staggered onto the runway like drunken revellers, writhing in grotesque shapes and flipping off the front row. Shirts were stained with bloody handprints, claw-slashed tops and spliced trews came together like gaping wounds, and transparent bustiers were sent out filled with real life worms.
