Dear Denizens of VSN,

The following pointless list cannot be completed due to dell71's failure to put Let the Right One In in the top spot. He was warned. And now...





...he has been dealt with.


Sincerely,

1. Thirst (2009)
Vampire movies that mix horror and romance are nothing new. See most of the movies on this list. Still, there's never been one quite like this. While volunteering for a medical experiment in hopes of helping find a cure for the Emanuel virus, a priest contracts the fatal disease himself. Luckily for him, a blood transfusion saves his life. The drawback is that it transforms him into a vampire. Oops. To make things even more complicated, he falls in love with a married woman. As the undead must do to the ones they love, he turns her. She then becomes what might be the scariest vampire in any movie on this list. Korean director Chan-wook Park gives us a beautiful looking movie, despite the gore (or because of it) with a terrifically bittersweet ending.

 

Surprisingly, I have NOT seen "Shadow of the Vampire." Plan to, though.

I take if Thirst is a foreign film with English subtitles?

Yup, Korean. If you've heard of Oldboy, the original not Spike Lee's upcoming remake, it's the same director.

BTW, he also did an "American" movie - Stoker with Nicole Kidman.
