Why watch this film?
From renowned South-Korean filmmaker Park Chan-wook (director of 'Oldboy' and the other entries in the 'Vengeance Trilogy'), 'Thirst' is a breath of fresh air to the - often - worn-out figure of the vampire in fiction. Awarded with the Jury's Prize at the 2009 Cannes Festival, the movie is faithful to its director's style in its brutal exploration of violence and lust, although those expecting a deep moral dilemma between Catholicism's morals and the vampiric desires of the flesh may end up somewhat disappointed. It's not Park Chan-wook's best movie, but when it comes to a director of his caliber, that's still quite good.
