Watch Thirst For Free

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The film was very good, overall. A haunting horror with no science fiction, all very realistic. 1. Concept: Four young friends—fashion photographers Brian and Tyson, Brian's medical student wife Noelle, and fashion model Jennifer — who is referred to by the nickname "Atheria" — travel deep into the desert for a photography session. They suffer a car accident that renders their car hopelessly stuck in a ravine, stranding them in the desert. Whilst they try to survive, their minds and bodies are tested on the terrible journey through the harshest of landscapes. 2. The main star is Lacey Chambert from Mean Girls, a supporting role in Not Another Teen Movie, was Maxim cover girl at one point – definitely a recognizable face and a pleasure to watch 3. Excellent actor performances throughout 4. The movie has a couple of slightly outdated slightly mystical moments, but there are very few special effects overall and as a result, the film has aged well and feels current, engaging and effective I greatly enjoyed the concept and the overall execution of the film. The simplicity of the cinematography really let the story breathe!

Watch this if...there are no other viable options for a struggle and survival movie. They are many better crafted and acted movies surrounding this theme available before you get to this point.Acting/Casting: 3* - This grade should be expected considering Chabert is your headliner. She is a beautiful specimen and that is her strongest/carrying asset. Brandon Quinn is downright aggravating at times and difficult to watch. Again, this is no surprise going into the movie.Directing/Cinematography/Technical: 5* - The setting is nice and the desert is convincing. While the overall directing isn't great, I feel that you do actually get a bit of the despair that these individuals are experiencing. This is also no surprise considering Lando is an aspiring B-movie director.Plot/Characters: 5* - The plot is nothing new, but survival is always an intriguing theme. If you watch the movie, you will note that there are a few questionable areas in the film. With a plot like this one, you really have to have some solid acting and directing to make it worthwhile.Entertainment Value: 3* - The acting coupled with the fact that there are a few moments that noticeably drag, really diminish the entertainment value of the movie. I have seen worse, but I have seen many better. One watch is enough and probably too much.My Score: 3+5+5+3 = 16/4 = 4.0Email your thoughts to [email protected]

Obviously, virtually no one has seen this flick because of the over-the-top make-up job the crew did on star Lacey Chabert. Though her face during the final 20 minutes of this movie MAY resemble someone suffering from terminal thirst, it also smacks of a REEFER MADNESS-type PSA depiction of a coed victimized by multiple STDs. To magnify their entertainment snafu, the producers have decided to feature this make-up misfire in ALL their publicity. It's as if someone was hell-bent on cramming an effort titled COLD SORES: THE MOVIE down our throats! Further, word probably got out that there is NO female nudity in this feature. Given the pivotal role Chabert's co-star's Mercedes McNab's fake kazonger plays in THIRST's climax, any right-thinking critic could label this deficiency gratuitous non-nudity. It's probably an indication of exactly how low-budget THIRST actually is that producers withheld the $1,000 or $2,000 topless bonus from McNab (who probably could have used it toward the purchase of better-fitting bolder-holders). That being said, this movie is a must for any fan of 127 HOURS, since it also features a badlands tragedy survivor swilling down her own pee.

at the time of writing this has a 4.5 rating from 141 reviews, thats misleading from such a small number of reviews. The stuck in the middle of nowhere/survival movie has been done a hundred times, its normally down to the director if the movie is worth seeing. Director Jeffery Scott does a good job here, not having too long of an intro to the characters at the start which some films make a meal of and then once they get into trouble, he builds the suspense and the angst slowly. The cast of almost unknowns do fairly well here, and the beautiful lacey chabert should go on to do better stuff. There are some plot holes and eyebrow raising scenes here which you'd expect from a low budget film but on the whole, this kept my interest throughout and is a good edition to the genre.
