Thirsty Work



THIRST-2009-A priest in Korea volunteers for an experiment on a cure for an incurable virus. He seems to die but actually out of 500 patients he's the only who survives and he becomes a kind of Savior and people seek him out to heal their sick.. Unfortunately there is a bad side effect. He's turned into a vampire and has to drink blood or die of the disease. Later he visits a family and has sex with the adopted daughter (who's treated more like a slave). In a GANJA & HESS move he infects her and they go out "drinking" together. 

THIRST features a lot of violence, blood and blood drinking but also has lots of talk, drawn out scenes and arty direction. With finger and toe sucking and mah-joggh playing. Some might laud it's over 2 running time but I found it hard going.
