Thirst

About This Movie

Thirst (2020) is a dark little gem that really plays with tension. Directed by Wylie Rush, it dives deep into the psyche with a thin veneer of horror. The atmosphere is thick, and the pacing keeps you on edge, almost like you can feel the clock ticking past midnight alongside the characters. The performances of the two women are striking—there's a certain eeriness in their calmness, and the unsuspecting man is just caught in their web. Practical effects, while not overly flashy, add a raw edge to the experience, reinforcing the film's unsettling themes of desire and manipulation. It's the kind of film that lingers in your mind, exploring the murkiness of human motives without giving everything away too easily.
