On my watchlist: "Thirst"

Details: Category: Diary

Top of my watchlist would be more accurate... Arguably the most anticipated Korean film this year, Park Chan-wook's take on the vampire movie genre, Thirst (박쥐) will be released on April 30th in South Korea. Pictures from the film have been available here and there from various sources on the web, and it looks pretty good, maybe not as erotic as it was publicized (wait and see...). Interestingly, the film's gotten a distribution deal with Universal's Focus Features.

Thirst is about a priest who somehow (how, really?) finds himself with some vampire blood running through his Catholic veins. Trouble ensues, as coveting thy friend's wife is hardly the priestly thing to do (or think). Promising.
