A gaudy, daring, operatic, and bloody funny provocation of a melodrama from Park Chan-wook. Read full review
Are you hungering for that rare vampire movie with serious intellectual heft, ravishing undead, biting passion and a healthy splash of irony as well as iron in all that spilled red blood? Wait no longer, Korean auteur Park Chan-wook's Thirst should satisfy. Read full review
Thirst is deliriously bonkers and keeps getting more so; you watch it holding your breath, waiting to see where Park will zigzag next. Read full review
Movies exist to cloak our desires in disguises we can accept, and there is an undeniable appeal to Thirst. Read full review

An overlong stygian comedy that badly needs a transfusion of genuine inspiration. Read full review
