Thirst

This movie is horrible. Horrible weak suburban run of the mill characters, bland chemistry, weak plot, predictable scenario, poor attempt at selling sex filled teen fap bikini crap. This movie is for very young white teenage morons

You'll know who will live or die in the 1st 5 minutes of the film with its cookie cutter personalities like the blond slut, the cute but borderline bland dark haired good girl, the hero, the jackass, etc...the bland tone of the film looks like old out of focus pictures in your grandmothers photo albums and will make you want to adjust the color temp on your TV

This is total crap...its not even "so bad its good" this movie is just utterly annoying

Thirst is a truly embarrassing film, a genuine waste of footage that falls short in virtually every way. It has bad acting, bad characterization, and even bad camera work. It is a debacle.

The film follows four people who get stranded in the desert after a minor accident. Four of the most annoying people you will ever see on a film screen. Only the Lacey Chabert character is even vaguely intelligent. Her husband is too stupid to pick up on the fact she is pregnant after she starts having morning sickness and avoiding alcoholic drinks. The model played by Mercedes McNab is so stereotypical and stupid you practically root for a coyote to come eat her.

These characters fail to use even common sense desert survival techniques such as traveling at night. Similarly, the best way to deal with an angry rattlesnake is not to stand still within striking distance. I've never even been to a desert and I know this.

Furthermore, the camera work borders on the disgraceful. Although there are a few nice shots of sunsets, the scenes filmed at night seem murky, as if they left on the lens made for bright light. Many of the day scenes seem bleached out, although that could be a result of the geography.

Avoid this film at all costs.

This is a well done independent film that has it's weak spots but overall is very good. The cinematography is beautiful in this film and the acting is well done by the four principles. I do wish that the Tyson and Jennifer characters had been flushed out more, their back-story was just not there and it made it harder for me to care about them, the married couple was played out very well and the ending was very heart wrenching. There are of course the "how could these people be so stupid" moments, but they are few and the film really does its job in showing how dangerous it is to be in any isolated area with out adequate supplies and ALWAYS let people know where you are. But I remember doing stupid things when I was young so you just have to get past those some points and take in the movie as a whole. Good weekend afternoon flick.

Despite relying on atmosphere rather than blood and gore, this film does not quench my thirst for a good horror/suspense movie. There may be fine acting, but the film's prone to horriblathermia: Stage 1 - poor characterization; Stage 2 - bland chemistry; Stage 3 - its inability to scare or create feelings of unease; Stage 4 - complete boredom (this is also known as the stage in where there's no hope for this movie now); Stage 5 - predictable ending. The music failed to make it any better. Instead of trying to find a plot (or watch this movie), actually hike through the desert, but bring a lot more water than the idiots in this film did (They only brought 2 bottles, which wasn't very smart).

Noelle (Lacey Chabert) thinks she may be pregnant with her boyfriend Bryan (Tygh Runyan). Tyson (Brandon Quinn) leads them and Atheria (Mercedes McNab) to Devil's Children in the middle of nowhere to shoot some pictures. They swerve to avoid a wolf in the road and drive off the trail.

Neither guys are likable although Tyson is a deliberate choice. Bryan isn't much better despite probably suppose to be the nicer guy. He's not a good boyfriend. Atheria is the classic superficial blonde. Noelle played by Chabert is closest to a likable human being although her relationship is more annoying than anything. This is a boring survival movie for a long time. Some guys may be bowled over by Lacey in a bikini but there is nothing here. The only interesting thing is where Noelle finds water. I can honestly say that I have never seen that before.
