Thirst
A full Korean trailer (without subtitles) has been discovered for the next film from Park Chan-wook (JSA: Joint Security Area, Oldboy, Sympathy for Lady Vengeance). Thirst follows a priest (Song Kang-ho) to Africa where he volunteers himself as a test subject for a cure to a deadly disease. The experiment fails, but turns the priest into a vampire. The film then tracks his blood and sex lusts as they clash with his faith.
Affeinheimtheater has the goods which they came across by digging through the official site’s backend. Check it out now in case it gets taken down. Thirst is due for South Korean release on April 30th, expected at Cannes and hopefully arriving in U.S. theaters shortly after courtesy of Focus Features.
