The Addiction
(1995)
Directed by Abel Ferrara , written by Nicholas St. John
Summary by Alan Thomas of MoviesMatter: In an unusual twist of the vampire genre, The Addiction
uses the bloodlust of the undead as an original metaphor for original
sin. When Paul wrote "who will free me from this body of death?"
he surely had no idea that it might apply to vampires. But the metaphor
works in this stark and moody treatment of the darker side of human
nature. Additional
