Review of The Host (2006) by Justin M — 10 Mar 2013

I have heard about this film since it's release over six years ago. I finally had the chance to sit down and see it, and well, I remember why I don't watch "creature features." I guess I sit on the pretentious side of the road and just didn't the side of the horror genre that is not actually suppose to scare you, it's just supposed to amuse you with the idea of being scared. I suppose the correct response is to laugh at the absurdity of the film, but meh, it didn't work for me. I found it all silly and predictable. A satire, sure, but to me it didn't push boundaries enough to actually challenge any ideas I've already held, nor funny enough to have merit.

I guess it's just not my cup of tea.
