Thirst Oldboy director does vampires — not like Twilight

Plot When priest Sang-hyun (Song) volunteers for a medical experiment, a transfusion turns him into a vampire. Soon he’s drawn to Tae-ju (Kim), the put-upon wife of an old friend. The couple kill her husband, and Tae-ju turns into a bloodthirsty creature... Verdict A fresh, surprising take on an old, old story (and an overpopulated subgenre) that holds the attention with deadly wit.
