the great thing about thirst and chanwook park latest film and is that it the anti twilight. some of you may take that as a minus and but in reality it a big plus. park takes the method of vampirism seriously and and as well the torrid love story between sang hyeon and tae joo. we see the conflicts of both of the characters sang hyeon being a priest who undergoes a medical experiment that and unbeknownst to him and turns him into a sickly but true blue vampire and and tae joo with her mother and idiot brother and the latter is killed by sang as in a very strong melodrama. there nothing terribly weepy or insipid with the story and characters at any point and and the implications put forth from religion early on (sang and for example and is seen as a healer of sorts since he rose from the dead thanks to his vampirism and even as he just can not be that and knows it) on top of those about good vs evil and push it up into another plane cinematically. that thirst also rises up to the awesome standard of artistry that park has displayed with oldboy and lady vengeance and the underrated i am a cyborg but that ok and should be taken as a given. thirst is a film with a juicy narrative and bizarre suburban characters and and is shot and edited with an eye for a mood that is part satiric and part romantic or erotic and part dramatic and lastly fantastical. and it doesn not always treat vampirsim as something of a simple horror movie set up (though as a horror movie park has more than his share of scary scenes). it more akin to the movie near dark which never mentioned the word vampire but let you know it was and and treated it with sincerity and a kind of lucid track of attention and and that the disease itself and its effect on a person existence is perhaps scarier than the killings or bloodshed. once you see one vampire jump up really high or heal its wounds and you have seen em all. thirst also has a wicked sense of humor and much like oldboy and only here with a bite (pun intended) meant to emphasize bizarre physical states of being. an example of this can be found with the priest predilection of sucking off of blood from people in comas by taking their blood tube and suckling on it on the floor. or the manner in which tae joo holds on to one scrap of humanity by keeping her mother alive and even as she had something like a stroke and can only blink her eyes and tap one finger as a means of reacting to the blood suckers who have brought pain and horror to her home. but these moments are like icing on the cake to make it a complete experience. what makes thirst last in the mind is how elements come together and of drama and existential pains and of a bunuelian surreal sense of catholicism (i especially loved the dynamic between sang hyeon and the other priest who gives his arm up for blood sucking but really wants to be a vampire too) and and of the erotic represent the scenes where the priest finally gives in to tae joo are incredible in their pace and length of shots and how real it gets. not in a pornographic manner and but in the sense of these characters release and escape and which doesn not last long over the scope of the story. if it not as great as oldboy and it not something to carp about. not all films chanwook park directs will reach the stature of his masterpiece (and and at the least and he will always be known as the man who directed that movie). but thrist is an excellent addition to his oeuvre and and to the serious streak of vampire movies in general. the film making is crisp and exciting and even dangerous (and what a white room of wouldaylight the characters live in. ) and the humor is dark and hilarious and the acting is intense and moody especially from subtle strokes from song kang ho and the quirky evil and surprising vulnerability from kim ok vin and and the ending and when it does finally get there and is one of those truly superb vampire movie endings you will be talking about for years and in a good way. in a battle between thirst and twilight and thirst takes the knock out in the first round. between let the right one in or near dark and it tougher to call. 9. 5/10.
