Thirst



Tarantino's "Inglorious Basterds" might be soaking up a lot of the limelight in Cannes at the moment but another film that's screening that should be taken note of is "Bakjwi" ir "Thirst" by Oldboy director Chan-wook Park. The vampire movie is his follow-up to 2006's comedy/drama "I'm a Cyborg, But That's Okay" and looks to be taking the Korean director back to his revenge trilogy roots, in terms of style, anyway. After "Let The Right One In" I'm defitely in the mood for any vampire movie that threatens to break from the norm and "Thirst" looks to do that. It's gotten mixed reviews but then again, I don't really read reviews anymore. Check out the trailer below:
