The Hunger: Creature Comforts 2003 Horror Movie Review

I just recently found out about THE HUNGER series, and now I’m drooling to own every single one. It’s very difficult to combine sex and horror effectively, but this series has some classics by very good horror writers. Highlights in CREATURE COMFORTS are Kim Newman’s “Week Woman” (Where a woman changes personalities every week, to the shock of her new husband) and Lisa Tuttle’s “The Replacements”, in which psychic parasites replace babies, turning women against their men and effectively creating an army of homeless men…Hey, wait a minute, that’s happening right now. I guess this is a scary parable for marriage.

Also WEB OF DESIRES contains “Menage A Trois”, where a crippled woman forces her hired help to become sexual puppets. One of the creepiest love stories ever filmed, courtesy of the ever-chilling Karen Black.

This is an awesome collection that both titillates and terrifies. Each tape has four tales that are about half an hour each, so it’s a very good value.
