Audience Member An interesting set up leads to slight disappointment. In Thirst our main character Kate is too whiney and undecided for most of the running time, when she finally decides to become "The Baroness" it's far far too late. A few inventive ideas and interesting scenes cant save the meandering plot. Still Thirst is a decent take on a Cult story and there are worse things to watch.

Were they actual vampires or just loonies? Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member A very uneven film. Some very interesting themes and camera work but ultimately it fizzles put under it's own absurd weight. Worth watching for some hallucinatory special effects. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Rod Hardy directs this stunning vampire feature that is among the best vampire films of the 1970's and possibly the genre. Thirst is a film that has a tense, brooding atmosphere with a surrealistic vibe and effectively bone chilling scenes. There a few flaws of course, and at times the plot suffers, but it more than makes up for it with a good cast, an interesting story that offers something quite different than your usual vampire fare. Fans of the genre will most likely enjoy this different take on a classic tale and there are plenty of scares that abound on-screen that are guaranteed to terrify you. This is a truly original yarn that is entertaining from start to finish, and despite some minor flaws, it is a terrific horror film that is a must see for genre fans. Rod Hardy's direction is great, and he knows to craft a solid, atmospheric vampire film that is engaging from start to finish. What is wonderful with this film is that it pushes the genre into new, unexplored territory and succeeds at creating something quite different and original in the process. Even with its new twist on the genre, there's still everything you'd expect from a good vampire film. There are plenty of scenes of vampires feeding on the living, and the atmosphere helps to elevate the film in a class by itself. If you love vampire movies, and haven't seen Thirst yet, I highly recommend that you do. The film offers a different angle on the vampire lore and works well while keeping the traditional vampire trademarks intact. This film is far better than many vampire films that have been released before or since, and if you love traditional vampire tales with a slightly new twist, then give this one a shot, you'll be glad you did.
