Sang-hyun is a priest who cherishes life; so much so, that he selflessly volunteers for a secret vaccine development project meant to eradicate a deadly virus. But the virus takes the priest, and a blood transfusion is urgently ordered up for him. The blood he receives is infected, so Sang-hyun lives - but now exists as a vampire. Struggling with his newfound carnal desire for blood, Sang-hyun's faith is further strained when a childhood friend's wife, Tae-ju comes to him asking for his help in escaping her life. Sang-hyun soon plunges into a world of sensual pleasures, finding himself on intimate terms with the Seven Deadly Sins. (oficjalny tekst dystrybutora)

Deviant, entertaining, bloody, sexy, dramatic, sarcastically funny, psychological and even epically long (or just unnecessarily protracted?). This collage of genres and emotions, however skillfully patched together to make a single whole, still remains just a motley mix despite its great actors, thoughtful (hidden) thematic lines and great filmmaking. Less of everything, and without humor, could have been more.

I don’t want to be a heretic, but even though Thirst is a hundred times better and more original than Twilight, I had more fun with the latter – at its expense, yes, but at least something. Thirst is the kind of film that mixes genres so fiercely that their effects don’t multiply but actually cancel each other out. Clearly, it does work on many people, but not on me, unfortunately. I only enjoyed the last forty minutes or so, which raised it to three stars.

South Korean director Chan-wook Park's Thirst is an example of how to make a horror movie with a fresh take on the genre and how even vampires still have something to offer if you look at them in a different light. However, this movie is also an exercise in slow pacing that can even put you to sleep at times. Over two hours of running time are just a lot, and It is clear that this is not so much about the scary atmosphere as it is about what the moviemaker is trying to say.
