 Very adult July 21, 2010

I exspected a vampire series, but it is strange short stories. All very explicit with adult situations. Only one story about vampires, very disappointed!
 Hunger Review April 14, 2010

Having enjoyed the True Blood series, I thought I would try this out. It has it's moments and can be entertaining, but because it is fairly dated, the production shows it's age.
It is also typical of the the type of "shock" entertainment that was done for adult TV back then. The True Blood series is a much better production.
All of these stories are unrelated which can be a good and a bad thing. As a result of them being unrelated it probably took me a lot longer to work my way through it.
If you like this type of story, I would recommend trying the True Blood series first.
 Erotica From the Dark Side... March 25, 2010

It's a bit hard to review a show like this. All in all it's softcore porn (just being honest, here) encapsulated in episodic stories. That said they are in fact actually stories with some semblance of plot and often have little morality tales built in (slightly more than generic softcore material). Though the plot is sometimes a bit thin and/or just a foil for the intermittent nudity. (It is a Showtime series after all.)
Effectively, this series is a Showtime counterpart to something like Tales from the Crypt or Tales from the Dark Side. The show consists of about half-hour episodes, with a brief intro / outro snippet from a "host" type character (not unlike the Cryptkeeper, only more human and less undead).
These are all essentially "weird / dark tales" with an erotic tinge. Since it's a Showtime show, expect nudity and sex scenes.
So far I've watched the first disc and generally been pleased with the overall quality of episode plots, atmosphere and cinematography (given what the series is about). I mean it could be like so many shows and just have a thin veneer of plot for a minute and then just go back to the "action." But, these episodes do actually have just a bit more substance than that (if only just).
If you like dark tales mixed with softcore, you might just take a look at this series.
Not quite what I expected February 8, 2010

I expected to see another vampire stories, but it is more like watching Eadgar Allan Poe's tales. Nevertheless, the stories are interesting, short, concise and with a suprising ending. I like them.
X-Files + Boobs = The Hunger February 6, 2010

Each episode of 'The Hunger' is a stand alone episode. Characters and plot lines are introduced and summarized in each 25 to 30 min episode. That seems to be plenty of time to tell a good story, however, and most of the season 1 episodes are entertaining.
They really did remind me of some of my favorite X-Files episodes in their execution. Instead of being from a detectives point of view, this show is told more from the mysterious and supernatural event's point of view.
You'll see some familier faces as each episode seems to feature an actor you've seen in something else. Also, each episode contains some level of boobage. Let's face it, boobs just make everything in life more entertaining.
In conclusion, I would strongly recommend this show to anyone interested in the paranormal, or boobs.
