''Like a leper rotting in flesh let all avoid me. Like a cripple without limbs let me not move freely. Remove my cheeks, that tears may not move down them. Crush my lips and tongue, that I may not sin with them. Pull out my nails, that I may grasp at nothing. Let my shoulders and back be bent, that I may carry nothing. Like a man with a tumour in the head, let me lack judgment. Ravage my ... read more
This film I feel is breathing life back into the whole 'vampire' genre since it's horrible downgrade thanks to Twilight. I honestly was like 'Oh, another vampire film, I wonder if I'll give it more than 4 stars.'. Boy was I wrong. This film was awesome.
To start off the first few scenes really pull you in. A priest who is willingly giving himself for science? Sweet. After the first... read more

"Y'know, in their earliest appearances in the cinema, vampires were made to be that dwelled within the genre of horror.
After a while, particularly through the sixties & 70's, the idea of a fanged neck-biter became aligned more on the campiness of creature features. Nowadays, we tend to divide 'em into the two categories: that of the comicbook crowd (as in Blade) or worse, in the rallying side of the romantics (you know what I'm talking about).
In this film, we get to see the concept of vampiris"
"Watched: 10.4.
Omaperäinen ja särkyvä rakkaustarina vampyyreista, jossa ei kuitenkaan tällä kertaa nähdä kimaltelevia vampyyreja ja heikkoa naishahmoa. Päähenkilön muuttuminen vampyyriksi on hieman köyhästi luotu, mutta eipä sillä merkitystä sillä muu tarina pyyhkii sen tunnelmallaan. Tarina on kiehtova ja hahmot mielenkiintoisia, etenkin päänaishahmo, jonka muodonmuutos

Chan-wook Park yllätti minut totaalisesti. Thirst ei nyt suoranaisesti ole mestariteos tai edes lähellä sitä, mutta kun mietitään elokuvan alkuasetelman olevan seuraava...
1.) Korealainen 2000-luvulla tehty elokuva.
2.) 2000-luvulla tehty vampyyrielokuva.
3.) Pituutta reilusti yli kaksi tuntia.
No, ette ehkä voi syyttää minua ennakkoluuloisuudesta, kun sanon odottaneeni näkeväni enemmän glitterinkimalteista kyrvänimumaratonia kuin Andy Warholin Factorylla"
"Day 13 - Favorite foreign horror
I really loved this movie. Thérèse Raquin adapted in a korean vampire way. Strangely hypnotic, and beautiful images."
