At its core, The Addiction follows Kathleen Conklin (played by Lili Taylor), a New York City philosophy graduate student, whose life takes a nightmarish turn after she is attacked and bitten by a mysterious woman (Annabella Sciorra) late one night. This encounter marks the beginning of Kathleen’s transformation into a vampire—a shift that mirrors her descent into addiction. What sets The Addiction apart is its treatment of vampirism not as a supernatural curse or gothic romance, but as...
