After Park Chan-wook's internationally recognised/acclaimed "Vengeance Trilogy" the master diverted from his claim to fame with two, fascinatingly similar, films that explored/molested the mind, body, and soul. In "Thirst", which came out three years after the stunningly sane "I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK", Park takes the beaten and bloody vampire genre and infuses it with some unexpected spice and subtle splendour. It's dark, sexualised, bloody, and complex. Enjoy! [spoilers]
