Late summer. The sun is sinking lower and lower, the last beach umbrellas have already disappeared from the beach, and people are casually heading back to the city. Gośka and Janek are hanging out at the Kier TV studio. The interview with the lead singer of Scarabeo is supposed to be just another routine job. They don’t yet know that something will seriously throw a wrench in their plans that day. And quite by accident, they’ll step into a world of childhood fears and monsters under the bed.

The Hunger is a British/Canadian television horror anthology series, co-produced by Scott Free Productions, Telescene Film Group Productions and the Canadian pay-TV channel The Movie Network. Though it shares a title with the feature film The Hunger the series has no direct plot or character connection to the film, and was created by Jeff Fazio. Originally shown on the Sci Fi Channel in the UK, The Movie Network in Canada and Showtime in the US, the series was broadcast from 1997 to 2000, and is internally organized into two seasons. Each episode was based around an independent story introduced by the host; Terence Stamp hosted each episode for the first season, and was replaced in the second season by David Bowie. Stories tended to focus on themes of self-destructive desire and obsession, with a strong component of soft-core erotica; popular tropes for the stories included cannibalism, vampires, sex, and poison.
